What I'm trying to decide is whether I should put the decal with the body lines of the car, or if I should put it level like the ground it's sitting on. They both look good when I tack them up to the car. I'm just nervous that I'll put them on and not like the angle. Yes, the slope is not much, but it's a difference of an inch when putting on the decal... So, opinions anyone?

parallel to the ground.

Line it up with the tinted glass on the window. That works best IMO. Basically follows the line of the window striping.

Plus with some of the newer systems you can't bypass the safety unless you know what your doing, then you would do it right in the first place anyways
2 reasons, you would have to have a neutral switch to confirm you were not in gear and maybe more importantly you would have to overided the clutch switch. I'll have to check, but I believe there is a federal standard on that one.

You just can not risk having a car lurch forward. I can remember a manual trans van I drove one time for work years ago. I didn't depress the clutch, being used to driving autos. The van jumped hard enough to bump the car in front of me pretty hard.

So the tough part is how do you do it so you have a failsafe on those two switches failing?

Dear Cam2fst4u,

Some say obsession isn't healthy. We beg to differ. Without it, we wouldn't have been able to develop a vehicle equipped with revolutionary 21st century design, perfomance and technology. Since you requested more information about the 2010 Camaro, we know that you feel as stongly about this vehicle as we do. Thats why we are sending you any Camaro currently available for production.

Yep, clearcoat is failing, And I have no Idea as to how to fix it cheaply. My monte started doing that on it's front fascia last year. Now the clear is peeling off like dead skin every time I wash the car. I'm really just not looking at my car anymore, It needs body work...
