    ’05 Yukon….. Best front blower motor

    Well, it’s not too annoying,… yet,….. but I predict, I’ll be replacing my front blower motor sometime….. It squeaks a little bit. Should I replace it with an OEM/GM , or which after market version is good enough? I suppose I’ll replace the resistor while I am in there, due to age…. ( ? )

    Satin finish..... Nice....

    This aerosol has a fine spray..... Lasts much longer than the "wipe-on stuff".... Works on the tires & plastic. Not shiny, like most of the other stuff, but a nice satin 'glow'.
