Default It's here!

Alright so I got the monte carlo, it has 3 issues some more important than others.

The 1st, The guy was seeing if the sunroof was able to slide back, and he said it made a pop, and no the motor just spins and i can't close the sunroof I think rain might be coming.

The 2nd, The aftermarket head unit is unplugged and I need to pop the whole piece out and plug it in.

The 3rd, The power steering we think is low on fluid.

The car also has some bondo'd rust that looks OK.

Any help would be APPRECIATED especially on the 1st.

Thank you!

Now I'm going to go get some pictures for you guys

If the motor spins maybe it just popped off the track? not so sure what to tell ya on that. However I will say for the few issues you have it shouldn't be too horrible to fix.

Not sure I've never had to mess with one, I'm sure someone here will have an answer though.

I sure hope so, I have the sunroof taped shut with packing tape at the moment.

Duck tape would have worked better, but would have looked like sh*t

I want to plug this stereo back in, but I can't get the din to come out!

You'll probably need to pop off the dash to get the head unit out. It's not too hard. A couple of screws in the glove box, two underneath the dash, then everything else is held in by clips. Looks good btw.
