Default Week 1 ownership


Its been a week since I picked up my GS,fixed the blown fuse for the cigarette lighter,(gotta be a contortionist just to reach the fuse panel)
replaced the driving light bulbs with Sylvania's,and ordered engine panel push pins.
When I got her there was no owners manual,(ordered one on ebay)and I'm still looking for a repair manual like Haynes.
Now I'm looking into the puddle lights.Not sure how they activate,never seen them on.

Congrats on the car. She looks clean. As for the puddle lights if you get close to the car with the key fob and it’s dark enough outside you should see the puddle lights under the mirror turn on for a few seconds.

Thanks!
I started reading the manual and found those lights might be associated to the blown cig lighter fuse.
Replaced that and quickly went to check out the bottom of the mirrors and sue enough they were working!
i might do a bulb replacement in the future,they might not be bright enough for me
