I agree, I’d leave it original. Especially being the fact it was very rare.I can see white stripes on a blue GTX anywhere. If it came blue on blue, I’d leave it.

Well I did and for the life of me couldn't remember how that thing when on there. Someone from the b-bodies only forum sent me this picture. Not very clear but enough to kick my brain back in gear.I have never tried to get one of those snap ring off!
25% of the time in the shop is spend looking for the part that I put where I would not forget.Need to find where I put the trunk lock assembly. Amazing how things disappear on me.
thats about right.
i lost my little dewalt 20v light for about 4 days. i used it to when i installed my antennas. its magnetic so i stuck it under the quarter panel so i could see the under side of the antenna to install. forgot about it. spent the next 4 or 5 days looking for it....
lol. might come to it comes time to crank the car..there you are.. thought maybe you hung yourself with the wiring kit...
I noticed on @Jim Kuenemans thread the small magnetic light, so I thought that was a good and bought two of them just in case, and the headlamp version is really helpful when working under the dash and some other areas, because there are no shadows, the light shines on anything the eye can see.That's what I hate about LED lights!
With the magnetic base it's nice to put them where needed BUT they give no warning when the battery is about to give up!
So it's easy to get busy then the light goes out and you can't see the light anymore.
Lost one for good I thought and when we put the truck back up on the lift 6 months later. Believe it or not I found my LED light! Still stuck to the frame rail. After charging it did worth a week or two but I guess the 6 month ride under the truck was too much and it failed.

Ah ha, you just reminded me that I have one of those headlamp set ups. I think it's in my elk hunting gear.I noticed on @Jim Kuenemans thread the small magnetic light, so I thought that was a good and bought two of them just in case.

I thought I was the only one! Except I spend 40% Looking for tools and parts and 50% planning, indecision & re-planning. Gets worse with age.25% of the time in the shop is spend looking for the part that I put where I would not forget.
25% spent looking for the tool I just had in my hand.
25% spent staring at the car and "thinking" about what to do next.
Got the stripe kit and installed the burgundy reflect stripes on the tail panel and lights.
Messed up in one spot but my efforts to purchase just the one stripe I needed failed.
Here it is test fitted. Shows I need to tweak the trunk lid alignment a bit.
