I was going to ask the same thing about AutoGlym. The only place I can find it is Amazon, which means that places like AutoGeek and Detailed Image do not carry it.

One of your door lock actuators (or potentially hood latch sensor but less common I believe) is failing and not giving the signal to your ECU that all your doors are closed so it's not arming check which one is failing and replace !

Great first shot. I hope the caliper works out.

My caliper bolts were seized as well. My mechanic managed to take them out and had to re-thread a couple. Common issue IIRC.

Someone went to Canadian Tire and did some shopping!
You are the first person I know of to use the AutoGlym products, was hoping to meet someone who could provide feedback on them.
Car looks great after a good cleaning. Awesome to have that type of garage space to work in, and a hoist, will be just the right compliment for it.

Hey Jeff, I've set up a trade day for you and I. And I'm not talking about cars.

lowered the rear from 24 and 3/4 inches to 24 and 3/8 inches. Front is at 24 and 3/8 so I'm going to lower that to around 24 inches or 24.15'' in the next few days

Looking at the thread from the beginning:
"Wow, stock ride height is really high." (mine was in the weeds when I got it, not seeing ground effects on the cars running around town I don't really have a good comparison until I saw your pictures... I'm glad I didn't just go back with stock shocks and springs.
"There did all the fender dings come from?! Did the previous owner drive by braille? I thought the scrapes on mine were bad!"
"That really is one Sick TL"

Meant to ask, do you recall what blue that is that the calipers were done in? Looks similar to your car, so, it probably isn't the Aegean Blue Pearl that I was hoping it might be.
Did you get them painted or powdercoated?

See now you're just splitting hairs on the ride height. I guess the nice thing about adjustable shocks is that you can split hairs.

What do you mean all the fender dings? If you mean what the paint looked like before I painted it then yea the PO must have done a ton of highway commute because the front end was sandblasted lol.
