    Took mine to my mechanic and he told me the motor was trash. After I spent 1500.00 on a overheating problem. I'm going to wind up spending more on repairs on this car than I paid for it. No more Pontiacs for me thank you very much.

    Did they all crap out at once? If so I would guess that its not the bulbs themselves. You may have a different issue.

    Sorry to hear that. What exactly happened with it? No coolant or something?

    No not all at once, half of the speedometer went out a while ago and they all were start to go out or go dim. The gas is super dim it might as well be considered out lol. Than again with the random issues and things my car like to do who knows lol. I'm gonna check the wires though just to be on the safe side.

    I havent started a car thread yet. They went on pretty well. Patience is the key and there are a few small bubbles but hopefully the sun will get rid of them after a few days. I just measured them out so both sides matched and taped the graphic on. Peeled the back of the top part of the decal and cut it off. then I started in the middle and worked my way up so i had half on. then untaped the bottom and finished putting it on.
