Saturdays are for fun things

Today I am hoping to find a better solution for garage lighting.  Our garage has a single overhead light and I would like to have complete lighting so I can use the garage after dark for car cleanup or mechanicing as needed.

Otherwise I need to police the inside of the CTS a bit and get it up to the standard of the outside.  I still have my wooden steering wheel project on hold, but too many non-Cadillac things planned for today to work that in.

AG Sachs Nivomat Shocks

While researching Monroe Nivomat shocks I found this description of how these shocks work on the AG Sachs website:

The technology:
The Nivomat is installed on the rear axle in place of a conventional damper. Fully automatically and without additional electronic systems, this compact device pumps the vehicle up to its optimum ride height after only a few meters. The Nivomat takes the energy needed to do so from the relative movements of the wheel and vehicle body. For every load condition, this maintenance-free system sets the ideal vehicle height, thus ensuring a safe and comfortable drive. An electro-hydraulic auxiliary system allows the Nivomat to operate either via a manual switch or in automatic mode including when the vehicle is standing still.

This from their product brochure.
