Hey hey all, name is Tom (hence the screen name cobalt tom). If any of you are on css.net my screen name there is NWAE Cobalt and probly have seen me :laugh:
Have had my LS for 3.5 years now, bought it with nothing (not even floor mats) and have quite a bit done (mod list to follow). Im pretty busy with the local cobalts; doing work with them on their cars, racing, etc. Anywho, Im here now and am enjoying the site, as far as the LS goes you can ask me just about anything on it as I have ripped 95% of this car apart at diff times :laugh: and I am happy to help
