Here's my contribution:
Rewire your side marker lights to blink with your turn signals.
Way back when I found a post from IceShark on how he did that for the rear ones. The idea is to wire the ground terminal on the side light to the + signal wire. When the signal flashes on, the side light goes off, when the signal turns off, the side light goes on. The marker lights still work just like they use to when the turn signal isn't used.
It's about 10 minutes to do the rear ones since all the wires are in the same place. The front is a real pain since you'll need to pull the batwing and possibly the front fender to get at the wires you need. 2+ years with the rear working like this, but I've still not bothered to do the front.

If you don't have an older model with manual latches, buy my '83 from me and then you'll have a car for the saratoga top!

got any gold teeth? By the way, to stay on topic, if no one has said replacing the hatch/hood shocks, everyone should do that RIGHT NOW! talk about cheap and easy. unless you crack your freaking windshield like a moron. ask me how I know.
