My 2003 Vibe had its windshield replaced 3 different times in the 7 years I owned it. I guess you guys are lucky. So far, knock on wood no issues with the Matrix :D

Re: My new shift knob

It was really easy to change. Twist the OEM shifter counter clock wise till it comes off and really follow the instructions on how to place the new shifter. It took me literally 5 minutes to swap it. :)

Nice Navi system. Apparently (what the salesman told me) they are very rare in our Trixs.

I too was looking at a rear view camera, found a local shop who would install it for $225 Canadian tx in. Basically he would replace the rear view mirror with the camera screen.

Just curious if you went to your local dealer to ask them if you had warranty left on your rust protection?

EDIT: just noticed you said you had an 06. I think the rust warranty was 6 years. Did you get a second opinion from another body shop?
