New Guy Cincinnati Ohio

Post by mattDgti »

Just recently picked up a 2003 Vibe Base for my girlfriend. These cars are much more fun to drive than I expected! Im a huge VW guy and currently autocross an 84 Rabbit GTI, and have an 85 GTI that I use for HPDE'sI am currently looking for the roof rack "wind covers" for the passenger side rear. Im having an incredibly difficult time trying to find one of these. Ive checked junk yards in my area, and no luck. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Welcome to the GenVibe family!(Sorry, can't help with the roof rack cover request. I had to glue my broken rack cover back together after I broke it trying to remove it when it was about 40 degrees F.)I appreciate your VW 'Rabbit habit'. I donated my '84 Rabbit Convertible to charity last December. It needed far more time and $ than I could ever justify as an 'investment'.

My 2003 Vibe Base Auto 2-tone Salsa "SalsaWagon" was built in May 2002. I acquired it in Feb 2004/Traded it in on a 2016 Honda HR-V in Feb 2018.

Welcome to the site!!I think what you are looking for may be in this thread..? http://forums.genvibe.com/zero...97149 If you are talking about the black plastic covers, you may want to review this thread as well. It is my understanding that if the plastic yellow clip is still attached to the roof rack, you will have to get a new one of those as well. They are a one time use. You have to destroy the old one to remove it. http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=11484
