I've had the back seats out and I would NOT recommend mounting and amp under them. It's not the greatest surface for one and two there's not much give for when a person would be sitting back there. Just my thoughts when I was looking at it, but it's simple to take a look. I believe the bolt is only ...

Wolfman213

Great news all around!! Congrats!!!

Wolfman213

For anyone who has done something to this extent to access the door locks, is it necessary to remove the speaker separately or can you leave it riveted in and simply disconnect it when you pull of the inner metal?

Wolfman213

Those blue icebergs are effing awesome!!!!!!!!!

Wolfman213

That is correct. All my speakers are working just fine and I no longer have the factory sub even in the car.

Wolfman213

Bad fluid is always a possibility. I went with a cheap Kmart brand one time bc I needed fluid bad and it ended up being a waste with very low pressure. I ran the pumps in like 15 second burst sproatically throughout the day in order to expell it as quick as possible without burning up the motors.

Wolfman213

The amp powers the sub and all speakers. It's actually pointless to unplug the factory sub bc you will still have some bass when you have to turn down/off your sub. Plus, to me anyways, it feels like the factory sub adds more depth in the midbass range. Just my 2 cents.

Great idea!!! And it worked too as he couldn't give a clear answer as to why he didn't want to. Then pulled the whole, ship and give me the tracking number and I'll clear the funds bit. Oh well. I'll keep that in mind for future reference about putting it on ebay!! Thanks!!

I listed all my PS3 games on cragslist. Around 10 games plus the Rock Band kit and 2 guitars for Guitar Hero. I am asking 250 obo.

Replace front pads and rotors last night. Duralast Gold pads and slotted and drilled ebay rotors. Yes, I know some ppl despise them, but I've always liked them and never had issues with them. Plus they were only $3 more than buying the Duralast rotors from Autozone anyways. Man it was a PITA getting...

Hope I didn't offend, I though Ginger was what you named the Camaro. My apologies.

Wolfman213

I was just dealing with this issue. I sprayed some WD40 on the latch, let it set for about a minute, and then all is well now. I had been dealing with it for almost 6 months and finally got around to taking 5 minutes (mostly to find it) to spray and good as new!

Wolfman213

If Ginger ever neeeds a date for anything, I'll clear my schedule. I'll make sure I bring flowers too

Wolfman213

I'm probably keeping the factory M&T amp though. I really like the quality of the DD sub which is why they are on my short list. Just not sure if the stock M&T will do them justice?

Wolfman213

Yeah I will. I'm at work now so it will be later tonight but I'll get it posted.

Wolfman213

I have factory tweets located basically on the A-pillar but on the door. I'll simply place them there. I have an 06 and not even sure that side airbags were an option for my year. If they were, I definitely know that I don't have them.

Wolfman213

It's going to be a little down the line, but I'll soon be looking into replacing the front speakers. I currently have the M&T package. The two I'm interested in are:DD Audio CS 6.5 $150Infinity Reference 6030cs $200I am really pleased with DD Audio's products (still have that sub for sale....) a...

My driver side door power lock hasn't worked for a while now. I just noticed the other day that the passenger side isn't working either. Both rear doors and the hatch are working fine though. Is there a relay for the front doors that I can check before finding out how much it's going to be to fix th...

Wolfman213

When you say they don't lock, does that mean they pulling out or moving up and down? If up and down, that would be the adjuster that needs connected.scherry2: Thanks for clarifying that they push in from the front. I obviously neglected to state rather important detail haha.

Wolfman213

For the 05-08's, you do not need to remove the front bumper when putting one in. Hmm.... now I'm second guessing myself bc of the adjuster. Well, regardless, if you have some ramps, then you should be plenty fine. I think the only thing is the part of the wheel well liner that connects to the front ...

Just look at my avatar for a black housing. I wouldn't have it any other way!!! Then again I HATE chrome so the fact I had a buddy with a paint shop and willing to paint was a HUGE plus for me!!

I'm a boring analyst for the State of Indiana's retirement agency.

Wolfman213

I believe Dupont has a good product for chrome rims to give it that translucent black look. It may not work well on the painted or machined wheels. Guess it depends if you have a 09/10 with the chrome wheels or you can always give it a try on the 03-08 wheels.

That's def what I want to try and do, but my city is so uptight. I'll have to go to Indy or something jsut to find a good metal scene.

Wolfman213

That sux it's shut down From where I'm at, there's pretty much just country, hip hop, and pop. Some bands play old school R&R, but nothing heavy or thrashy. Makes it really hard to find anyone to jam with around here. Drummers seem to be scared of double bass hahaha

Wolfman213

Thrash club?!?!?!?! I'm so moving to Florida!!!! There is nothing like that around here What's the scene like around you? Around me there is nothing but old or pop bands.

Congrats ponta!!!!!!!

Wolfman213

I'll definitely check those out tonight! I'm hoping it's just weather stripping and can be replaced with less of a headache than any other issue.

Wolfman213

The interior returns to normal, I'll check the cable at the latch though. That could possibly be it since I drop the hood a couple times which may be releasing it and then it latching.

Wolfman213

I've noticed lately that my hood is not wanting to latch properly when I shut it. I have adjusted the rubber bump stops on the side to the point where it feels like they don't have much more room to move. When I drop the hood, it gets into the safety latch, but not completely latched. It just won't ...

Sometime last month we had a bad ice storm. It sound like the wind noise from the moonroof is way worse than it was prior to the storm. Should I try and replace the gaskets or would there be something else that I should look for as being the culprit in having more wind noise?

haha i just tore those to shreds and never replaced them. Never caused any probs.
