Known problem - broken locking pegs on cover. Innopocket sent me new one and I reused broken one:)

I thought that car looked familiar!!!!

I'm a Caddy guy myself.

1997 Sedan de Ville
1992 Sedan de Ville
1986 Fleetwood
1986 Cimerron (I swear I'm the only person with one of these)

Except for the Cimerron (which gets incredible gas mileage) -- it's like driving a sofa on wheels.

Gotta have my Caddys!!!

Excellent case 'hack', by the way!!

what kind of fuel economy do you get on those? im lucky if i get 18mpg in my old Jaguar

The Fleetwood gets maybe 7 or 8 MPG.
The 97 de Ville is around 18 or 19.
The 92 de Ville is around 22 to 24ish.
The Cimerron has to be over 30.

My apologies for straying off topic!!!

How did you connect the broken case to the pedestal?
