I bought a driver side window switch cover from a Toyota dealer because the price is lower than that from a Chevy dealer. I know I could get it for less online but the shipping was too much for such a small part.

petervivian

I know a friend installed such cable on his focus and it works fine.

petervivian

I saw a video on YouTube in which a teenage girl changed the serpentine belt for a corolla. So it's definitely not hard.

petervivian

Mirror inside with reading lamps? I can't find the part number, but you can find it on GM parts website by searching "Mirror inside w/reading lamps" for a first gen vibe.

Hi, for sale is a liftgate glass assembly with air deflector (frosty/white), wiper and washer components from a 08 vibe. The parts are in very good condition. Price is negotiable. I'm located in south Florida. Thank you. Link to pictures hosted by flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/35671409@N02/10...

Nice. I have the same wheels (5*100) on my 05.

petervivian

Does the LED light get hotter than the stock bulb?

petervivian

I have the same problem, though it rarely happens. Last week the light came on after two days of rain, and then went off when it's sunny again.

petervivian

Matte black imo.

petervivian

Hi, I got a pair of these horns, one H and one L. Is there anyway I can install both on my 05 vibe?
Currently I have the low frequency horn installed and I am satisfy with the result.

Just hit 160K miles yesterday.

petervivian

What's your current mileage? I am about to hit 160K miles. Marry Christmas!

I got a new cover for $49 from a Toyota dealer in Miami, FL. The Chevy dealer next door asked for $89.

petervivian

I need this cover plate too. Currently a zip tie is holding the cover and the swithbox together.

petervivian

Sorry to see you go, good luck in getting a nice ride.

petervivian

Thanks for the info. Please take a picture of the receipt if you can find it. I can show the picture to a toyota dealer near me, much easier to locate the right part, and get the right price. Thanks.

petervivian

Sounds good, do you remeber the part number and the address of the dealer? Thanks.

petervivian

Hi, everyone. I have a 2005 vibe. On the driver side front door, the front end of the power window switch assembly inside the panel is held by only one screw. The screw post on the panel is plastic. It is cracked on mine, so the switch assembly sinks into the panel and is difficult to use. Anyone go...

Neither the liftgate nor the back window fits vibe.

petervivian

I changed the starter today. The old one only made click sound.

petervivian

Happy thanksgiving, genvibers!

petervivian

Most likely I will get a new CTS coupe in the coming year.

petervivian

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Anything else I might need when I change the fender liner? What about new clips? Where did you get them?

petervivian

Today I finally removed the ugly dealer added pin stripes. I also accidently put a long scratch on the passenger side front wheel lip

petervivian

Maybe I should change my front fender liner on the driver side. I can't remember when I put a hole on it. Where did you get the new fender liner? How much is it?

petervivian

Just one key for my vibe. I always keep other door keys on another ring.

I went to a junkyard near Opa-locka Airport last year, and they have a vibe with only front end damage there. I think you can find the parts. I plan to go there again but I need to find a pal who speaks spanish.

You are not alone I live in Miami.

petervivian

I had a similar dent two years ago. It is difficult to be repaired using just puller, since the metal sheet is thick at the edge of the gate, and there is also a curve amid of the lift gate. It is also difficult to knock the dent out from the inside. Although there are several openings on the inside...

petervivian

Will a 2009-10 vibe cargo cover fits 2003-08 model? Thanks.

petervivian

They should remove your old lock and put it into the new lifegate. And you don't have to program anything to let the liftgate lock and hatch release to work. Most likely the wires of the new gate are not correctly connected.

petervivian

Welcome, one more florida viber, nice.

petervivian

Still $3.89/gal at BP and Shell here in Miami, FL.

And the beam torque wrench is less expensive I think.

petervivian

Then go to ebay and search for 15U/WA914K. You will be able to find it for less.

petervivian

A picture of your vibe will be better. You don't want to get the wrong color like I did once for my frosty. When you got the correct code. I suggest getting the touch-up paint on ebay. Less expensive and ships fast. Sometimes they also throw a touch-up kit in your package.

petervivian

I suggest trying chrome trim moldings, the 3M adhensive on their back holds pretty firm. Just remember to choose one roll of the right shape, and place it on the outer lip of the intake or you won't see the chrome molding, because you will see it at a look down angle. http://www.customautotrim.com/....

petervivian

What color is your vibe? I can't find the code 16U for first generation vibe. Check thishttp://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=19784

petervivian

The car is sold and the seller ended the auction eariler.

petervivian

Any name brand claybar, polish compond, wax combination will be fine. The key is getting a random orbit polisher like the Porter Cable 7424XP. It will give you a beautiful polish result with much less sweat.

Information comes from ebay listing 160571072057: Someone just traded in his/her vibe for a Cadillac? The vibe has very low mileage, registed in GA. Maybe the owner was a member of this forum. I can tell from the TC wheels and A/C insulation Sorry to see someone leaving, but maybe the next owner wil...
