Talking Long time member first time owner!!! Got a PPW 05

Just got myself a 2005 PPW enthusiast 6spd Zed from university Chevrolet in tampa working with a guy buy the name of Duane! He is the bomb and I can't shake this grin off my face after driving this car! I always liked the Z's but always planned on getting an s2k but after driving one the lack of power made me so I decided to check out your modded rides and fell hard for the PPW fairlady. It had 49k on the odo and I traded in a 02 eclipse gt with 89k. Final OTD price was 11.8 with finance of 5.6. This place ROCKS! If you go there let em know I sent ya and it'll put referal cash in mod jar Anyways I see the addiction Coming from a high 14s and mid 14s cars with lame handling to a low 14 high 13 sec car with superb handling and superior fit and finish i'm almost afraid of modding. Heres a pic my pops snapped off before we rode out.
yeah its stock and im a nerd but after 5 months of hunting for the perfect Z in my budget im happy I got it

O yeah got some questions (I know I can search for em but if someone feels like killing time and answering them go for it)
=How do I set up home link?
=I have the regular sound system so theres a container behind the driver seat, does the lid snap out?
=Any way to up the factory HID's by changing just the bulbs?

That's so much for this site its helped me a ton!!!!

There should be a card in the owners manual to help with homelink, I'm to lazy to go get mine right now. Yes the cover pops off I usually use a flathead screwdriver just be careful not to scratch anything up. You can buy different bulbs for your headlights, I'm not 100% sure if it will brighten them up but it will give you a nice color change. Hope that helps a little..
