New stuff for my baby...

Went and picked up my new coolant and washer bottles today at the local GM dealer. Cost me 29 bucks for both including the cap for the coolant. I don't have a show car but those two bottles were filthy and I got tired of looking at them all the time. Besides, I had tried to clean them before and nothing worked. Now I have new bottles to go with my decently cleaned engine bay.

New bottles make a HUGE difference in these cars. I got a new coolant bottle no too long ago and it looked great. Too bad that was right before my overheating problem trashed it again

I heard that you can't buy those anymore from GM, guess whoever said that, was wrong.

I would love to get those as soon as my AC works for good and I change out the radiator.

Good stuff, looks really nice.

Ok so noone asked about the crappy yellow color of the antifreeze so I will make a confession. I dumped the old stuff in the old container cuz it was all yucky and I had no new stuff to fill it with so I peed in the overflow. You know, my car runs 20* cooler cuz of it....
