    '06 Gt Premium - Noob Questions

    Be sure to check the guide pins on the caliper mounts every year. Pull them out and clean and grease them with every brake pad change.

    2005 Door Panels

    Any good upholstery shop can do the work. If you pull the panels and drop them off I am sure it will cost less. I think Latemodel restoration had replacement leather inserts. Our you can Google them... just look for door panel inserts.
