OMFG..... are you kidding me?

I can only imagine those coming loose going down the road and causing all kinds of damage.....

and the rear ones don't make any sense at all..... they are wheel cylinders..... the drum covers those.... wtf.

And what the hell is a stick on sunroof..... please dont tell me it's what I think it is....

The comments/questions to the seller on the eBay page were EPIC. I'm not sure if he was playing along in the joke or thought they were serious questions, because he seriously answered.

Such as:

"So what type of motor does it take and how do i go by wiring it all up and locating the switch??"

"Will I have to declare the addition of this modification to my insurance company and will it compromise the structural integrity of my car?"

"Will this work with my convertible?"

"How much horsepower does this add?"

I actually think these are cool (not the sunrook thing). This is a nice way to dress up the calipers. My only concern is the method at which you put them on. If they had a bolt going through then copnnecting them together and tightening them on would be better.

Yea, there was a post for the stick on sunroof either here or on cardomain a while back.
s1lver: Why would this be better suited for the suspension section? I think that should be reserved for more serious questions and pictures for suspension.

is everything in each section ever serious? doubtful. plenty of random crap in those sections better suited for it rather than A place to post photos, videos, and other media, of j-bodies new and old.
