Default Non performance Damaging LT1 Problems

I dont need help or anything I just thought Id share that today I got in my car and the mirror glue was coming lose at the top and made the mirror hang lower. I did some things came out to car 4 hours later, and its hanging by the electric wire that goes to the lights in the mirror. DAMNIT!
Least I still got my Side mirrors so I can line up in the burn-out box easier

That stuff aint strong enough. I had some glue before and did it to my friends windshield, put alot of excess glue on it. Than a week later, the mirror was off again. I must get industrial strength!!! lol.

Hmmm...you mean the dash isn't supposed to be cracked?? I thought thats how they came and the squeaks and rattles are easy to get rid of, You just have to turn the radio up untill you can't hear them anymore.
