Great explanation....... Thank you for the info. It really explains the viability of doing this mod in ways that I haven't a clue as to how it will work or not. I had a chance to occupy a seat in high school chemistry for 1 day. I saw the large periodic table on one side of the room and...

I have the 2011 Equinox LT..2.4 Just bought H9 replacement bulbs ( Narva ) for low beam H11. I just need some confirmation for fitting these into the existing base ( H11 ). I know that this has been gone over before, but I would like to have another opinion as to the viability and safety of...

I know that the CB craze is over. but I have been to both coasts in the last couple of years and it's kind of interesting just listening to the truckers. It takes about a day or two to figure out what they are saying, but when you do it makes the trips more enjoyable. Another thing I really...

Been a while since I checked in....... Those rack covers are kind of nice. I will think about those. The door handles and the side rearview mirror covers look really good too. I dont know why they don't include the tail light bezels with the factory chrome package, or do they. I asked at the...

Sure does. My friend at the dealership was impressed. Said that they might consider selling those bezels to the public, among other goodies that are available. Had lots of good feedback from others too.

Finally got some pix.......... 2011 Nox LT 2.4 Just finished adding the chrome bezels on the tail lights today. Had the visors added when I bought it. Then added hitch. Looking forward to great info on this site. Already had some good ideas. The bezels were one of them.

Thanks I will post some photos when I get a few taken. I am now just getting used to the new car and all the bells and whistles. Thanks: Lyle "

Is it possible to locate the magnetic CB antenna in back of the OnStar antenna and not have interference with the OnStar and XM radio reception? I have a Cobra Classic 29 CB and was also wondering if anybody uses a similar radio. It looks like there isn't a lot of space to mount it by the...

I totally agree with that. If I was actually going to have purchased a vehicle to be used for towing I wouldn't have gotten the 2.4 with FWD. I will heed your warning and be careful to stay within those limits you mentioned. If I need any additional brawn, I will ask a friend or two to help...

I think I understand the problem. If I were to try to tow a couple hundred more than 1500 pounds, I should have one, correct? And if I wanted to purchase the cooler, would it be better from the dealer, or an outside vendor? Would the warranty cover the cooler? Thanks for the added...

Thanks for the replies. I was wondering, reading the other response about the transmission cooler. Is this something I should look into? I don't think I will be doing any bobcat or large car hauling, but what should the criteria be for purchasing and using the cooler? I don't want to hatch the...

I have a 2011 2.4L Equinox 1LT. Just installed a after market receiver hitch and was wondering what manual gear to use when towing a small covered trailer.(8 X 12 feet)? I was told that it is best to use the manual selection rather than the automatic shifting. Thanks for the responses. Lyle
