    Instrument Cluster Interchangeability

    Question for the electrical hive mind - Are GM clusters interchangeable between different models? Not specifically a Goblin/Cobalt question, but can a cluster from say an '09 G5 be used to replace an '06 Cobalt cluster? Is there general rule such as "if the connector matches and they are both...

    SOLD HP Tuners MPVI2+ $275

    I decided to sell my Goblin before I had the courage to learn how to tune so I won't be needing this MPVI2+. New, unopened, no credits, I've never used one so I can't offer any help. You'll need to purchase two universal credits from HP Tuners to tune your Goblin.

    1. What is the total fuel capacity of the metal tank? 2. How much of that is unusable (engine will quit before totally empty)? I was cutting it close yesterday on the way back from a show in Carolina Beach, NC. Usually, I once the gauge shows half a tank, I plan on stopping, but I was...

    One Part You Wish DF Offered

    What is one part you wish DF offered instead of using the Cobalt part? For me, it is a simple part - the parking brake cable tubes. They often are forgotten. Difficult to remove from a car that still has the interior. Not the right shape for the now standard extended chassis. And should be...

    SOLD

    Edit - price drop. Would rather it go to a Goblin owner. I have a spare LSJ. I needed a new trans and was offered a deal on a LSJ/trans package. Now that #316 is done and I brought the 57 home, it’s time to liquidate some spare parts. It sits in the same condition as it was when I got it...

    My new project

    Aluminum Cleaner

    I ran out of the AlumaBright I was using to clean parts and the local store only had a product they just started carrying. Lume Bright. Before using a new product like that, I test it out on a non-important piece. I used it on one section of the broken knuckle and was amazed. No removing...

    Brake Light Upgrade

    The Goblin’s smaller size has me a little concerned that it might be “invisible” to some drivers. You know - the ones that don’t see motorcycles. So I came across a potential LED brake light upgrade. Think anyone will claim they didn’t see a pair of these? :p
