Ok, will I need to add a resistor in line with the bulb circuit, in order to dim the LED's? If so, what wattage? If there is a better solution, let me know.

Thanks for all the information. I take it these already have the resistor in them? I plan on picking up a set soon. Cluster is out, getting ready to put in a new speed sensor, so might as well change the bulbs too.

Hello! Looking at upgrading the bulbs in the instrument cluster (rallye pack) to LED's, and am wondering if bulbs like the Sylvania LED's need an additional resistor. I just want to replace the 194's and 168's with something brighter...gauges and speedo are way too dim at night. If you know of...

Thank you! That's what I was looking for. Think I'll put some blue threadlocker on the bolts, since at some point the interior will need to come out to do some floorpan work. Now to get the bolts out...soaked them with blaster, will let them sit a day or two (thanks G body garage). Will have...

LOL!

Anyone have the torque spec for the seat belt bolts? 87 442.

Anyone know where one could find a Promatic 2 for the 4 speed 2004R? The Hurst part number was 383-8504. Lots of 3 speeds out there, but can't find the 4 speed version anymore.

Ok, I could probably fabricate the linkage needed (seem to remember seeing an article on how to fix the linkage a few years ago), but I don't want to cut up the console. Nor do I want to cut up the plate. If I could find a Hurst Promatic 2 for the 4 speed, or a DualGate that wouldn't break the...

Does anyone have any pictures of the Hurst Quarter Sticks in the stock console? I have seen a picture of what seemed to be one several years ago, but can't find it. I would like to install a Hurst shifter that fits using the stock shifter plate, since it is an 87 442. It still has the original...

That looks really good! What did that plate come out of, and how did you get the trim around the Hurst plate to look like that?

I will check with him when I get a chance. That looks really good in there. Only problem I see is, as you said, mimicking the Sheffield gray. I don't want to cut up the original top plate, so I would have to come up with something like another modified plate, and have an overlay made for it...

Has anyone installed the Dual Gate 2 (4 speed) in a g-body cutlass? If so, have you had any issues with install (bolt-up, fitment of top cover plate, etc.)? Thanks, 442_olds

I fond some information on another forum page that mentioned Seat Belts Plus...they apparently get theirs from Seat Belt Solutions in Jupiter, Florida: https://www.seatbeltsplus.com/product/8288-GBF-Bucket.html https://www.seatbeltsolutions.com/g-body Going to order some color swatches this...

I had posted this in the Interior section, but did not get a response. I am looking for a good source for replacement seat belts for my 87 442. Color is 79 Dark Claret. Where is a good source for these belts?

Well, finally got the wheels, and had them put on today. Here's what it looked like when I brought it home : I changed the rear springs (put the factory replacement Moog 5391 springs in, 142# spring rate), and WOW! What a difference!: Got a nice rake to it! Sits a lot higher than I figured...

I just looked at the pictures of the event, and WOW! it looks like fun! Must...stop...drooling...:LOL:

Anubis, thanks for the info. Unfortunately, it's a bit late in the game for me to plan a trip to Michigan, and not enough funds to do this right now. I agree that the SSIII is the best looking rim for the car. I just can't find any right now, and I need to get wheels and tires on the car soon...

I was talking to a gentleman at work today, showing him what rims I was looking at getting (he has an 84 Hurst, as well as other vehicles). He said he had a set of rims that he didn't need anymore. These were 5 spoke 15x8 aluminum rims, he said they were a style from back in the 80's or 90's...
