of course! already posted one

1. searching for info on a sunroof that only moves a very small fraction at a time when you hit the switch (assume the motor is shot)

2. noticed some "checkering" in the paint of a black 04 ss. it looks like a bunch of 1/4" lines or cracks all over in the clear possibly. kinda like confetti. my 99 lumina also it.

1) motor or fuse. Trial and error, go with what's cheaper.

2) Sounds like a bad paint job or more likely clear coat. Sounds like it would have to be sanded and resprayed. IDK if they'd be able to just sand away the clear and reclear to save money.
