So, which to use?  Puritan?  Purple Power?

I tried rubber rejuvenator, because my hose was bad.  Yes, it left lots of black on my hands beforehand.  The rejuvenator made the rubber soft again.  No more black.  It stinks.  Instructions say to soak for 48 hours.

Don't use Purple Power on automotive rubber.  Try a search for a Weathertech product first.

I forgot about a cleaner I've been using for about 6 months.  I picked it up because it didn't have any of the common tire cleaner acids, like hydriofluoric acid or any phosphorous.  It's probably the only ArmorAll product I will ever recommend.

It's ArmorAll Extreme Wheel and Tire Cleaner.  It goes on as a foam and does a very decent job of cleaning my tires and engine parts.  I've not noticed any indication of it drying out my tires or any of the hoses in the engine bay. 

It's hard to find, but I used to get a product at AutoZone to spray in the engine bay after it was cleaned.  You can spray it on everything.  It leaves a good seal on all rubber products.  It's called CD-2 Engine Detailer.  You may only be able to find it on Amazon or Ebay.

My car desperately needs the drivers side seat bottom replaced. Is there one available in the parts barn?

I have the seats from Ray's car.  Cover may be torn but i think the base is ok.

Does anyone know if the parts barn (or a member) has...

  • headlight control module
  • front wiring harness
  • two headlight motors

My Testarossa replica has fixed headlights... "fixed" as in "non-moving", not fixed as in "functional" or "improved". Each side has two rectangular sealed beams, glued into position... Barn door effect blocks a lot of the light, plus they are not aimed correctly and there is no adjustment...aside from cutting the silicone, moving them, and gluing them again. :) lol

Anyway, I found two headlight mechanism / hinges assemblies. If I can find the other parts, I plan to remove the current headlights.

Charlie / Fierofool looked at the car and said the module was missing, and that I might want to try finding a new front harness.

He suggested I ask on here.

I'm pretty sure we don't have any modules. Here's one on Ebay, and I don't think you're going to find a lower price (others on Ebay are $125 and up).

I have a complete gen 2 setup or gen 1 that I'll sell you. Harness, module, motors. Used, of course.

Interesting! That's a good price. I sent a PM to f85gtron. If that falls through, I may look at the one on eBay. Thank you for the link! :)
