I'm sure a Chrysler forum could... why not try there? It's unlikely that a member here would A) own a Crossfire and B) be so in love with it as to learn how to work on his styling-reminiscent-of-a-dog-squatting-to-take-shit car.

 

I'm already registered with the crossfire forum. It isn't a very vast resource, however, and it is more likely that I could find someone here that would be able to help. I guess I'll just look into getting the service manuals.

That would be your best bet :yesway:

What MB is the Crossfire based off of again?

SLK320

Who is the major aftermarket tuner for that model?

Kleeman, maybe? Perhaps even Brabus.

From what I understand the Crossfire is essentially the SLK320 with a different shell? Right? Or is there more to it than that?

That's pretty much it. The interiors are also slightly different, but they're otherwise identical.

There is an aftermarket for these cars, although it is limited to extremely expensive parts.

What I am getting at is, none of those tuners you mentioned have any online resources you can use to help you?

None that I've found. In fact, their websites are limited to information like, "Yes, we have X part available. Call." I've got email out to both Renntech and Kleeman regarding the pinout, but haven't heard back from them in the past couple days.

It's not that big of a deal, really. I just thought I'd try my luck here in case there were any other xfire people lurking. Maybe someone on crossfireforum.org will come through for me.

Sheesh, that stinks. I hope you are able to find some info on it.

Thanks. It's really weird to read through the SLK forums and see thread titles like "Check out my new mod!" and then you open the thread and it's a guy talking about some new $80 waxing kit he bought that weekend.

:lol: Its kind of like that on some of the Z forums, they guys/gals will drop tens of thousands of dollars into the car, (through their mechanics) yet they don't know how to even change their own oil. But damn they can tell you what kind of tire dressing to buy.

:lol: I get a kick out of that sort of thing. We've got the 'cup holder mod' on the crossfire forum... The guys who actually have the flip-up cup holder are pulling them out (thereby breaking them) because their elbows hit the little latch when shifting and the cup holder flips up and gets in their way. We have an actual procedure somewhere for performing this "mod."
