I just got a 92 SC400 for my birthday a few weeks ago for 6,000. It has 141,000 miles on it. Decent to me because my 2000 Honda Accord has 146,000 miles on it. The SC has some real basic problems:
1. Passenger door handle broke. (OK may cost 70 bucks to replace)
2. Leather seats in the rear have split due to the son. (I put a tent on it as soon as I got the tittle, plus I"m going to get Katzkin leater put into it, $995 cash installed with leather of course)
3. Water in the driver side headlight. (Great advise from this club about fixing that... 220 degrees in oven no longer than 7 minutes and use Grit wetsanding... hay I can even get some bulbs for about 24 dollars to make beter)
4. Low coolent light comes on. (I still don't know what this is because it's full of coolent and the car does not over heat or leak... I think and hope it a sensor problem)
5. Amp blown! Now this hurts the most because now the car sits in the garage becasue it's not fun to drive this great car and do the beat box. (told it should cost 750 to 1000 to place a new system in it) Whoa!
Is there a way to use an after market amp to get the system working plus add some more speakers... you know sub and such? I'm just trying not to get jerked out of that money if the amp can be changed out. Plus I don't want to change the look of the stereo that is already in the car. I searched almost every question in this club going back to 92. Wow there are alot of conversations but none that I could find to answer this question.
Please help if you have an answer for this new member and proud owner of the silent Lex. :P
