According to sources, the new Blue for 2006 is Asiatic Blue, don't have info on what shade it will be. Some guy online, says he got an advanced order by paying extra. LeMans Blue is too dark in my book, will be interesting to see. Randy Replies to this message: dustyone (Oct 10, 2005 7:24 pm)

#1392 of 1905 corvette headlight switch by shaggy1 Nov 01, 2005 (7:01 pm)
Hello, I am in the process of changing a headlight switch on a 1979 corvette. The switch is a push/pull knob located in the dash and if the knob is turned it also dims or brightens the gauge lights.   The switch is held in place in the dash by a threaded collar which is easy to remove.   How does one go about removing the knob and the shaft which inserts into the switch?   On the new switch it looks like the knob & shaft threads into the switch but I can't seem to unscrew the knob from the old switch.   Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
#1393 of 1905 Nice Day to Cruise by bigmike5 Nov 05, 2005 (4:21 pm)
Had a great day to cruise today here in KY [75 and PC], and so it was off to Bowling Green where the Museum was having its annual luncheon fete for volunteers who work their events during the year. After some shopping in the gift shop we were [about 40 Vettes strong] off on about a 40 mile cruise on the country roads to a Rod and Gun club at Barren Lake, where we had a great luncheon and some opportunities to talk with and meet new folks. I even talked the wife into coming this year, and she had fun too, despite having some serious neck issues the past few weeks. Cruise speed [thankfully!!] was a little slower than last year, and the group kept together without too much trouble. People in Bowling Green are so used to seeing cruising Corvette groups that they just sit at cross roads and wave as they let the parade proceed on through. Really a great and tolerant populace down Bowling Green way. The luncheon was superb [again] and Wendell gave a nice invocation and talk before we all dug into the grub. On the upside the wife enjoyed it, and the drive home was smooth and easy. Averaged just over 30 mpg for the day, with 200 miles of smiles.
#1394 of 1905 2000 C5 water leak by nshaw Nov 16, 2005 (9:03 pm)
Has anyone experienced a water leak inside the car coming from behind the glove box? It's water, and not antifreeze, dripping down along the fan motor. I'm assuming it comes from spraying the car off with a hose when washing it, but I've not experienced this with other cars before. Shouldn't be leaking inside the car.

#1395 of 1905 Re: 2000 C5 water leak [nshaw] by starrow68 Nov 17, 2005 (9:14 am)
Replying to: nshaw (Nov 16, 2005 9:03 pm) I'm guessing it isn't from outside. Sounds more like the heater unit area and either a hose connection leak or a seam in part of the unit. The heater hoses come through the fire wall in that area if I'm not off base. I know you said water and not antifreeze but the other possibility is condensation but hard to get much volume that way, I'd think. I've read about several earlier C5's with leaks in the passenger foot well area. Randy
