Hey guys.

Well to make a long story really short... I had a shop replace my AC stuff with the new kind. I just said "make my ac work". Becasue it slightly worked before...but not well. So they did that and it was freezing. A few weeks later it didn't get cold anymore and there was all sorts of smoke in the engine bay. I guess the condensor or something went bad or blew the seals or something? Now it makes all sorts of noise. The condensor (or whatever) goes eeeeeeeeeee!!!!! whe nthe car is stopped or going slow. When it's moving it doesn't really seem to make the noise. It's pretty high pitched and really annoying. So since it doesn't work anyway...and never will...can I just disconnect it or something? I just want it to not be loud.

And also, I have the normal problem with my DeVille where the person before me hit something on the back and now the rear drivers side taillight housing fin thing fits over the actual taillight assembly. It's not BAD...it's just there. It there some way of pushing that back over or do you have to actually get a new fin?

any info = thumbs up

Does anyone have any idea at all for my condenser?!?

Also...will seats from a Fleetwood fit my DeVille? Not a 93 style Fleetwood...like the 86 style. I know I can get pillowtop seats from a 93 style DeVille...but they're probably hard to come by... The Fleetwood looks the same in overall actual cabin room... Perhaps?

And...can you use a hood and grill from a 93 or so DeVille on an 89 without doing any modifications? I like the look of the larger grill. I know some of them actually have the grill mounted with the hood...
