Thanks, that is probably what I will end up going with. I just wanted to see if anyone had a used one/pair that wanted to part with, so my car won't look as lopsided with one new light and one sand-blasted old one. . .

Hey guys, I'm looking to finish replacing my busted fog lights on my P5 finally, but I missed a couple good deals here already, so I am at a loss. I only really need one, but if you have a nice pair I would be interested in that. I'm located in Alaska, so shipping flat rate via USPS is about...

Daaaaaaamn, I'm a day late and a dollar short :( I wanted these bad. . .if anything falls thru on the sale let me know and I'll definitely take 'em.

Yep, rears are 14mm, and the top slider pin is 10mm. It helps if you break that loose before you fully remove the rear caliper bolts completely as well. If I remember correctly the rear adjuster is a 4mm Allen.

Sounds good to me. PM'd you

Oh cool, I hadn't thought to look at the door sticker. 40% sounds about right. . .

So I'm still getting used to my P5, and trying to fix a few issues along the way. One of the main issues still is the E-brake/rear brake calipers, which is/are basically worthless. I have got the calipers un-siezed a bit, but am trying to get the rotors and pads to re-bed again (after serious...

Yes sir, that is what I'm looking for. Are you sure you want to get rid of it, though? It seems they are semi-important for identifying your blinker from the side, but I guess to each their own. I'm definitely interested, though. Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm looking for a turn signal housing/reflector for the driver side bumper on my P5. I'm not exactly sure what it is called. . . Anyway, the external reflector/lens on my current one is broken, so I would like to get it fixed. I don't remember if the lens/reflector portion is separate...

Finally got the bulb adapters yesterday, and tried to make sense of the clips without a diagram. . . either I hadn't had enough coffee or it's just damn confusing, but I spent a couple hours trying to get them to sit correctly in different orientations, and was two bolts into removing the front...

Ah, okay that is exactly what I was wondering. I saw mention of the adapter, but I assumed that was part of the bulb. . . and apparently that got thrown out with my last headlights. I guess I need to get a pair of these? Thanks!

Hmmm, so I got a set of clips from a member here (thanks!) and went to replace my bulbs and put them in my P5 last night. . .aaaand now I'm stumped. Instead of finding a pair of H7 bulbs in the low beam reflector as I was expecting, I found a pair of 9003 dual-filament bulbs (used in the sedan)...

I just picked up a P5 and am in the same boat as the OP. I tried the check described below and the center of the compressor pulley never moved with the AC on or off. I'm guessing this means the compressor is toast?

Lifting it a bit DOES help in the snow, as you get a bit less underbody drag, and the less plowing with the front (especially crossing roads and plow berms and such). I'm not looking for something that will drive around in 2' of snow all day, I just want to be able to minimize damage to the car...

I'm new on here, and an busily trying to get my P5 into winter-mode, as our weather here in Alaska has been s*** to say the least. . . First on the agenda is tires, as the all-seasons that the PO had are next to worthless. I also want to get a much ground clearance as possible to try to make it...
