Seat springs

Would seat springs from a full bench seat ’80 Diplomat fit on an ’89 Fifth Avenue seat frame? Got one or two broken ones

Trunk light

I got a factory trunk light from that ’80 Diplomat, will it work if I plug it into The Cherry Bomb? it’s got the plug for it, or what would I need to make it work?

The Cherry Bomb’s new look

I bought new tires with the first stimulus check and they beat the wheel covers on with a hammer so now they won’t stay on no matter what I do…anyways my friend got a hold of some nice silver paint…it started to rain so only one side got done, othe…

Chrome around the windows

I found an ’80 Diplomat in a u-pull it yard that has a right side mirror and no power windows or locks like mine, except it has chrome trim around the windows which mine doesn’t have, can it (the chrome) be removed? See picture for what I mean

If anyone needs parts in Florida

1987 Chrysler Fifth Avenue its at Moye’s Auto Parts in Holly Hill FL. Its a rust free North Carolina car with only 52k miles, everything works, other then the paint the car is like new! Undercarriage looks brand new, and I’m told she runs perfectly which I believe

Oil filter

Time to change the oil in The Cherry Bomb: OK buy oil and a filter, drain oil and take old filter off, get new filter ready: it doesn’t fit! Napa gave me the wrong filter, no where near Napa now, Advanced Auto is the only place near by, nothing before 2000 in the book, go to front to have them look it up: 1985 Plymouth Gran Fury 318: all they have is a K&N filter for $16. the problem is I don’t have $16. Think quick: 1994 Dodge Dakota 318: they have 5 or 6 filters! Lesson learned: never say…

Oil filter

Trunk won’t open need help NOW!
