The positive discovery was finding out that I have little joysticks (under the emergency brake handle)that control the side mirrors. Coolness! I've always had the side mirror controls on the door area. ('86 and '89).

The sort of "negative" discovery was that most of the dash and center console screws require a torx drivers. I don't have a good set of torx drivers, so I'm gonna have to go buy one I guess.

I was trying to get to the lite bulbs just over the center console controls for the A/C, defroster, etc. There are two deep wells that have torx screws in them. So I didn't get to the lite bulbs tonite because I couldn't take off the console.

I also have to replace the little bulb that illuminates the shifter positions (Park - Drive - Neutral, etc.). Does anyone know how much these cost and where to get? I've heard that maybe Radio Shack has...but I'm gonna try AutoZone tomorrow....they all gotta be cheaper than the stealer-ship.

The other day I found out about the secret compartment on my 245. I like finding out new things about this ride. By the way....you should see my virgos on my '93 white 245. I'll try and post a pic soon.
