Trunk Light ? - Page 2

The trunk light switch had to be replaced on my 05. So far the only problem with the car.

I have only recently joined this list. It has been interesting reading about experiences of fellow GTO owners. I've had mine since June of last year.

speaking of that end of the car, has anyone had any problems with the paint on their spoiler. Only part put on in the US and I have what look like water spots on the paint under the clear coat. Dont have them anywhere else on the car

Braman...the paint issue has been discussed several times on the forum. Try entering "Paint Question" or "Paint problems" in the forum search and you will find those threads. Basically, it is an issue with moisture under the paint. A heat gun appears to be the generally accepted answer.

I found that my switch was not "pulling out" far enough. Like there's an obstruction inside the sleeve the post comes out of. When I just pull on the post, I can feel it pop past the obstruction and the light comes on.

I've got a short list; rattle in door, now trunk light I'm making up to go to the dealer. I just can't bring myself to let them tear parts of it down yet, so unless it's something major, I'm waiting till it gets nearly a year old.

That's what your dealer is for.........
