    Fuse Panel Access

    I couldn't find an ACC switch. I did find some that are Ignition only. I used one of those for the Radar Detector.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Hit 1500. Now I can "drive" it :D.

    Rear Diff Fluid

    OEM fluids are pricey these days. I ordered fluids from Rockauto for the 4BW rear diff and my truck's transfer case. It was $190 for 4 quarts (2 each). The Mopar fluid was more expensive.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    The 80 mph limit is really hard. We have speed limits that are 75-85 mph. On two lane roads, I feel like I'm holding up traffic going 80 mph.

    Subwoofer Install

    I plan to do MDF if I can get the volume. I've built many MDF enclosures over the years. My fiberglass experience is limited.

    I will. Are you creating a fiberglass mold?

    Rear Diff Fluid

    Is there any washer or thread sealant needed for these plugs? From searching, I see that the torque spec is 50Nm. I purchased a 14mm hex socket for my truck's rear diff years ago. I believe it will work on this diff.

    I haven't looked yet. Just trying to plan out the build for the future. I've been busy with my son's baseball tournaments every weekend. I hope to get some time in July.

    CT4 BW quickjack - tips on positioning and block choice ?

    I put the ZL1 lift pads on the front, but not the back. I have seen people on Facebook put them on the back as well. It is probably fine, but the recommended jack point in the back is the brace. See below...

    CT4 BW quickjack - tips on positioning and block choice ?

    Yes, ELX recommendation is for the 5BW. I purchased the 7000TLX, but haven't actually lifted the car with it. I've used it on my full size truck.

    Has anyone found a carpet that matches the trunk carpet? I plan to build a sub box that fits the cubby area.

    CT4 BW quickjack - tips on positioning and block choice ?

    I believe the 6000 ELX was designed for Teslas. It is the longest model they make.

    I'm not sure if the bypass will change any fake noise. It will get rid of noise cancellation. It might make the interior seem louder from road/tire noise.

    CT4-V FLOOR JACK LIFT GUIDE - 4BW

    There isn't really a good jack and jack stand solution for the car. If you use the recommended jack point, you don't have a place to put a stand. I looked at wheel cribs and RennStand as options. I ended just biting the bullet and getting the QuickJack.

    Gas Grade

    Yes, ethanol is bad with moisture. I had some issues with a boat after I couldn't find non-ethanol gas in the area. It was fuel pump related. That being said, modern vehicles shouldn't have an issue. Sta-bil makes a marine version geared toward ethanol.

    No plate though... I'm not a big fan of the front plate law in Texas. I don't run one either, but I have gotten pulled over twice specifically for no front plate (previous car). Both times were warnings.

    Subwoofer Install

    I have searched for variable voltage on GMs. It looks like the Silverado trucks have it. It might be on these as well. I know it can cause issues. I'm having issues with the Variable Voltage on my wife's car (Nissan Pathfinder). It will randomly kill the battery and Nissan says the battery...

    LF4 Engine Oil Temperatures and Type

    This is for the LF4, so might not help you. I checked my oil level at 400 and 800. It was right at full both times. I got it changed around 870 miles.

    CT5-V Ikon anti-theft

    Are thieves starting/stealing cars through OBD? What is special about the key? It almost looks like a standard hex bolt.

    LF4 Engine Oil Temperatures and Type

    It looks like the Mobil 1 Extended Performance is thinner than the regular Mobil 1 (10.15 vs 10.8). Have you tried both? I feel like a thicker oil would be better.
