That guide is for the gen 1 vibes... I will make a maser list maybe a similar post when I have them all worked out... just the reverse light won't come out

Racemedic

First off I have been unable to find a master list of bulbs used anyplace.I have been able to remove the front turn signal, rear turn signal and break light but thebackup light is giving me stress.... only had the car 2 days dont want to break anything. Are they really twist and pull? I have never s...

Put on a coat of Tech Wax 2.0 2 days ago and the finish is awsome. The question is though if one coat is good then is a second a good idea?Was wondering about putting on a second coat before a meet tonight.Hope you see this before I run out of time to get the wax done._______________________________...

Racemedic

Ordered the car from the factory. Didn't think there was any purple in the name Steel Blue Metallic maybe I am going crazy... that said I am starting to come around to the colour

Racemedic

It is the Steel Blue Metallic. This car can turn 3 different colours it seems depending on the light. You can always see some grey but it can go from kinda grey-blue to a purple colour in direct sunlight.

Racemedic

I did look at where you live... if you ever want a tag along car nut I would drive down from ontario in a heartbeat.

Racemedic

One person own all those cars????? If so waaaay too much money,I would never make it though them all I would have a massive heart attack before I got half way

Racemedic

What is the better way to go this is a mod I have been looking into aswell.

Racemedic

That thing is amazing!!! now help me out you said he brought one over???? How many of those do you need?

Racemedic

Ya it can... Mine took almost 12 Weeks Very nice car though and very few on the road like itLike none I have seen 2 base vibes the same colourbut I have only ever seen one other 1SC.

Racemedic

Wow I have no idea how to find the img code and when I have them come from my buddy's site they are HUGE!! sorry all I will figure this out________________________________________________________________Update... I found it Guess you learn something new every day

Racemedic

After what seemed like forever I got my car. I factory ordered a 09 Vibe 1SC FWD with XM MP3 Blockheater and Chrome rims. I Spent almost 10 hours washing and waxing it for it's first photo shoot. The finish is awsome... very deep shine.

Racemedic

Well today is the big day to get the vibe (Finally) Murphy from Murphy's Law is here in force... already tweaked my back and the dog liquid pooped all though the house Darn you Murphy. Then I find out that we have no soap for the carpet cleaner Don't get the car till 11 but I hope the day looks up f...

Racemedic

Can you even imagine the world with out GM??? I just can't see how the Canadian and American governments can let that happen... They are a part of the fabric of both countries. It blows my mind to see them letting all those people go and talking about being in real trouble.... even Toyota is not imm...

Racemedic

If this works out well for you would you be interested in doing them for Gen 2 Vibes? picking up my 09 in a couple days and I would be interested... also be interesting to see what the cost will be. Let us know I am sure there are other 09 drivers out there that would be interestedthanks

Racemedic

How cool would that be to have the birth certificate for your car!!!!!! Man I don't even have my car yet I have the dealership holding on to the build sheet for me but that would be super cool. I was in California last year so I can't see being down there for tour any time soon but wow you are super...

Racemedic

Thanks fo rthe photos I was interested in seeing where the car was built. that is awsome that you were able to get photos.

Racemedic

Congratz the car looks great... I will be joining you in Vibe ownership as of Mon... all things being equal. So glad that you finally got it.

Racemedic

UPDATEwell I called a dozen places and most of them could not even find that size or know where to find it. There is a small little place not far from where it happened and they managed to find one. $40 but it is a big tire... P235 65 R17 I'll take it as it is big bux for a new one... these are an o...

Racemedic

Well I saw the how was your commute topic but thought that his was over the top. So for those of you that have been following my long wait for the new vibe... here is the latest.I work at a county ambulance base and car pool into work in the morning. My partner met me at my place this morning and I ...

Racemedic

Wow sounds like all sorts of fun. The vibe really is a hard car to get and it is good to see that is is not a problem just for Canadians. I know people that ordered one a long way back and thier lease ran out and ended up having to pick one off the lot that was a different colour with different opti...

Racemedic

I went with this one. Big bux.... but I but it on the cost of the car over 6 years so no big deal. This thing is sweet I can't wait to try it out... will let you know how I like it.http://www.autostart.ca/prodIn...TW-FM

Racemedic

NathanelYou lucky guy... I ordered mine from a photo. picked my options from an asci screen. You are lucky enough to get yours 2 mths faster than I was able to get mine... Ordered mid Aug congrats on the car upload picks soon so we can see it

Racemedic

Well the very long awaited car is now at the dealership. I am looking forward to delivery but they don't have anyidea when that is going to be yet. I will give list of the features on the car when I get some post-delivery post-wax photos. I have asked them to install a remote starter so I am not sur...

Racemedic

As I understand they do have black. It is the New colour that they don't have. if there are any steel blue owners out there let me know

Racemedic

As some of you know I have been waiting for a factory order Vibe since mid Aug Dealer says anyday but that is the line I have been getting for a while.... Back on topic.I have been looking at doing different mods once I get my new baby. One of the least costly is the Keyhole covers. I have contacted...

Racemedic

Looks great.... nice place

Racemedic

Looking good... looks like a cool project. Sadly I won't be interested in any as I will have an 09. Please keep the photos coming

Racemedic

That looks awsome... I am now green with envy. The next question is has anyone found a similer cut off for a set for an 09. and if that is the case wehre did they come from do they have shields and what did they cost?

Racemedic

Today I got gas for 0.90.... before you get to wound up about that it is still only 3.40/Gal Never the less the lowest I have seen in this area in a long time... can't get over the fact that gas is at least $1/Gal higher here... Canadians love to tax everything to death. At least the price is fallin...

Racemedic

one does have to wonder why you would get out of a car with it in gear... I did it once at work but tankfully I set the parking break... I can be in a bit of a hurry sometimes when I am at work

Racemedic

I was looking at this one but I think I will go with the scangauge. I think it would be cool to have the grafix... but the scangauge seems to give more readings... anyone have other thoughts?

Racemedic

It is my understanding that it will. I want one for my car as well once I finally get it. Just a matter of waiting a couple more weeks.. I want one so that I can get my dog in and out of the car without scratching the bumper all up.

Racemedic

The one thing I have not seen anyone talk about here is the safety feature. I am a Paramedic and I have to say that I have never been to a car crash where someone got up in the morning and planned to get in a wreck. I have yet to get my Vibe yet... they tell me it should be soon and I am not an Onst...

Racemedic

hmmmm I have not had much seat timein the vibe yet as mine has yet to comein... I am really looking forward to posting photos when I get it... that said in feb my family is going to florida... anyone from around here knows what kind of a drive that is I hope I find a comfy spot as we are looking at ...

Racemedic

What was the model # of the hitch for the 09. I am looking at getting one for my car (once it arrives) and what did it cost if you don't mind me asking?

Racemedic

Looks good... nice effect and cost effective

Racemedic

I have yet to get my 09 vibe but I was in a dealership today looking at what is to come. I looked inside the little covers back by the rear lights and there are toyota stickers ont the metal. in talking to the parts manager he said that it is a hard car to get parts (accesories) but they are finding...

Racemedic

Well I don't have them yet but I did order them on my car.... still waiting for it to come to the dealer... they have an invoice for it so they tell me it should be 2-3 weeks to get it here from California. someone tell the train driver to step on it. I like the rims I even went out and got a powerb...

Racemedic

debating debadging but I would like to get the dealership badge off what is the best way to do this without harming the paint. What did you use and are there any tricks?

Racemedic

What hitches have you found and at what costs? I am interested in putting a hitch on my 09.... when I finally get it.thanks

Racemedic

Congrats on the new car... When I get mine finally it will not be my first new one but they are always soooo nice. Then there is the first one... very special Enjoy

Racemedic

Now the next question is what tire need to go on the car so that the speedo and such match up... will this hurt the warrenty?

Racemedic

I have ordered the SC1 Package and that has the fog lamps intalled... the dealership does not have the generic bulb code (900?) on record... that makes things interesting if you are looking to get things ahead of time Had the same problem with my Saturn and I had to take the bulb out and take it in ...

Racemedic

Am I going to need to worry about aiming problems or glare... and if I do what will I have to do... I direct drop in would be best

Racemedic

I have ordered a 09 vibe... some day it will come. I am looking at light mods as I drive on back roads a lot at night. $50 a set for Silverstar Ultra or so at the local store. and tehre are 3 sets needed. Now if I go with HID the best cheap ones I have found are $150 plus shipping. Worth the cost if...

Racemedic

Anyone know the Generic code for the 09? I was told that the last gen had 9006 I think but I want to know what the 09 has so that I can buy my lights before the car is delivered... going to be a full day doing stuff to the new car... got a bunch of stuff and the car is not even built yet... 1 mth to...

Racemedic

Have fun and drive the wheels of it that is what rentals are for. I hope the weather is good enough that you can get the top down and go for a cruse. Enjoy.

Racemedic

Awsome call. Thank goodness for warrentys with out them many of us would be toast. That said what else would you have gotten? Made the switch to the VIBE??

Racemedic

I am new to the vibe family. I can't post any photos as the car has yet to be built. They state that it is being built this week in cali. I would be super happy if there is anyone that lives in the area and can take a photo of the plant and better still a photo of the new cars in the lot or coming o...
