    Bumper is in the Bentley and should take 10 min your first time. Only removal of trim (no tools) and two large nuts is required.

    The battery could be too low. Many of these symptoms sound like too little electrical power reaching the parts. It would not be uncommon - since they didn't unplug the battery - for them to carelessly leave door / hood / trunk open all day...

    Smoked Clears. Like mentioned above, new headlights will make your car look new.

    Sounds like you'll get it all figured out.

    Wouldn't it be charged after driving it a hundred miles like a bat out of Hell yesterday? I finally made it up to 120mph, that's got to make Amps.

    I bought all new Hella lights at the beginning of the year, all four plus fogs. The old ones weren't bad, but what a difference. The lights in my signature pic were the old ones. Don't forget to get the urethane lens protectors.

    Not correct! Do a drop test on battery, you may have a bad cell,radio symptoms point that way, they left the door open and boost charged the battery, fried a cell, ****!
