With all the anquish over the trunk light question, I got to thinking. I have this little, football sized, cylinder held in place by a metal bracket on both sides, sitting in the trunk right behind the back seat. Now, I'm thinking that there was some problem with this area of the car flexing in hard turns and this rubber peice added tension during the occurance? Probably not.
But, I thought that just maybe it is a wieght. See, I had an accident and had a whole new rear end put on my car. Hey, I love my car that much (that's why wife is jealous!), the new rear had this, is it a weight? It is about direct center between rear wheels!

Just take the thing out. When I took mine out it weighed like 50lbs. I didn't change the way my car handled, but it made the car lighter, which means quicker in a small way.



92GXE, touring wing, 18” racing wheels, Port&Polished intake, custom intake, custom yellow interior, racing seats, back seats taken out and replaced with subs and amps, NOS kit, Suspension tech. Lowering springs, custom grille, soon to be custom painted and have the whole engine rebuilt for big shot NOS and custom SC and tranny converted to 5-speed.
