OK - I have 50k on my '03 Leggy GT sedan and I plan on keeping it for awhile. I want a general shop manual to refer to when doing modifications or for minor repairs - IE, not sure I want or need the full FSM.

So - any thoughts which to get, Chilton's or Haynes? I think both are like $15 on Amazon...

Thanks,

- Mark

Chiltons is good, but Haynes will probably be more the average guys speed.

I found the haynes very helpful and easy to understand. It compliments the 'advanced' nature of the factory service manual very well.

I have the Haynes, and it has helped me immensely.

If anyone else wants the BE/BH FSM link, PM me...I don't think I can post the link freely or something (it's only good for 90 days btw).

rouge, it saved under a .rar file for me. WTF is an rar file and how do I open it?

.rar file is an archive file programs like winrar can open that. try some demos at download.com they should suit your needs.
