Finally Found a New GM Vehicle!
I searched and searched and finally I found a good deal.
Introducing Big Blue, our very first Pontiac
2008 Pontiac Torrent GXP Deep Blue Metallic, Sand interior, 3.6L VVT 265hp, 6-speed auto.
Performance of this crossover is amazing and the handling is awesome and driving it back I got 27 mpg out on the interstate.

Does anybody know how to remove the front license plate bracket on new GM vehicles. Its got some bolts on it I've never seen before and none of the tools I have work.

Another question: I've test drove several of these over the past couple of months. I just noticed that when starting our Torrent GXP the gauges do not sweep across and back. The others I test drove did. Is there a setting for this or a way to turn this feature on? I couldn't find anything about this in the manual or online.

So the Torrent GXP (which I like as well) lives up to the brand's aims, but the G8 / G8 GT / G8 GXP, Solstice and Grand Prix GXP don't?


EDIT: Oops, forgot to say congrats to the OP. That is a nice looking ride, and as others have said, what a sharp color.


And if that doesn't work, you could always take a drill to it, and drill out the center.
Have always been a fan of the Pontiac Red interior lighting.
The front plate bracket is more than likely being held on by rivets. Your going to have to machine of the heads to get the bracket off. Then you'll have a couple of holes in the bumper cover.

I believe those would be rivets. You can drill them out, but you have 2 holes in your bumper now that you'll need to cover/fill.
Aren't they hex or torx? Stop by AutoZone and they should be able to match up a bit for it or just take it off.
