mmmm, bummer. Looks like a 'movie-in' weekend, especially if the weather continues to suck. So much for a good-weathered summer. I havn't even been to the beach yet.bah!

Rivlen

Is there anything happening this Friday or Saturday (July 16/17)??? I've been too busy to make any other meets (which sucks) but I'm free this weekend.Let me know!!!!

Rivlen

I'll try that out, I think I had problems with that the first time I looked at it. I guess it just didn't look obvious enough.

Rivlen

Hi all;I was just thinking about an idea that I don't know if anyone has mentioned here ... if you have a long item in the back that requires that the hatch remain open, how are people securing the door?I've clipped a bungee to the wiper pivot (probably not the best place to clip to), and to the lat...

I agree, for Camping the Vibe can hold a ton of gear. What is the most stuff anyone has crammed into their baby?Last weekend I moved out my Brother who had been crashing in my basement. We packed My Vibe to burst with the seats down, ontop of a full interior load he also had a Double size Futon and ...

Rivlen

Man, feels like I've been away from GenVibe forever.Just to clarify for the next meet, is the date June 12th? If so, I might be able to make it. I think its time to get out and 'play' with my Vibe. It'll also be nice to find out who is local and what mods have been done, even if primarily Matrix, th...

Rivlen

wow, all this 'wondering' response certainly made me laugh and I can only imagine all the puzzled looks on your faces.I'm looking to get graphics done up for those windows, but before I go for a quote I'd like to have the proper dimensions, obviously.So there you go. Plexi glas NO, Neon -> no again...

Rivlen

Hi all, can anyone please give me the dimensions for the rear window and the rear quarter windows, or even what the biggest possible rectangle of space would be for both????Thanks

Rivlen

Don't tell me I'm the only one from K-W. I see lots of Vibes around town, so I was hoping some of the owners would be on here too. Being as it would be nice to discuss and exmine some mods in person. O Well, at least I know now that there are a few Genvibers within an hour away. Thats a start and, n...

Rivlen

Hey, anyone here from Waterloo? I see a lot of tags from Toronto and Quebec, but not any closer than TO.

Rivlen

TRDVibe, how did you get your results to be so smooth? Not to knock psycho's job, but its pretty granular in comparison.

Rivlen

Has anyone seen the new Mazda3? Is it just me or does the Mazda3 Sport (5door) look very similar to the Vibe? I saw the profile of the car and the first thing I thought was that looks very much like a vibe, even the dash has Vibe Styling with the sunken gauges and trim rings.Looks like Pontiac is do...

I picked up a set of the Vent Visors from my local dealer and found that they were real easy to install by myself. They came with some sort of super glued double sided tape and some alcahol swabs to clean the surface of the application area.I think it only took me about 1/2 an hour to do all four do...

Rivlen

Oops my bad, I was so excited I priced the 9004's instead of the 9003's.So the actuall price for the 9003's was $27.99.I found this out when I went back in today to pick up a set. Now I just need time to installed them. Actually ... what am I doing here ?? I'll go do that right now.

Rivlen

For anyone interested ... I was in tonight to check out the pricing (only I was in a hurry so did not purchase), not too bad:$21.99 for the H4 (Headlights)$24.99 for the (9006 - Foglights)that means that with taxes, a full set is around $108.05 (CND)Now I don't have to worry about south of the borde...

Thanks Nova, those were perfect.As an aside, I notice that there is a lot of information on numerous popular subjects, which seems to end up in more than one thred. Repetitive posting and linking (as even this thred is). Would it be possible to start building a FAQ that compiles all this info? Is th...

Hi all, I'm looking into the posibility of a short shift kit and was wondering if anyone has done this to their Vibe? If so, is there an install doc I can have a look at, or resources you can point me too.Thanks

Rivlen

Hi all; I know this an ongoing topic that has greatly disapointed all of us, and found some other posts that may help explain this 'problem' more and why there isn't a solid workaround. I was reading through the posts on the matrix owners site and came across this post: http://www.matrixowners.com/m...

Rivlen

mmm, the first part is helpfull, but is there anything below the step #2 title? Just curious as only part of the guide is displaying.

Rivlen

Silver, Cool, I'll check it out.quote:Also, I have the guide saved on my PC. I can email it to you if you want. That would be great, my email is displayed on my Profile.Thank you

Rivlen

I was wondering if the install guide for these horns is available yet, and also, does anyone from Canada know where these can be ordered or picked up from as the listed online stores in other discussions are South of the border, or do any of those ship north?Thanks

Rivlen

I've found a company in Canada called Mass Electronics (which comes reccomened by my dealer), they have a variety of system configurations from basic alarm to 2way paging and even imobilization so the car itself will not start unless you're in it with the fob. If anyone is interested in checking it ...

Rivlen

I have a question and hopefully someone can clarify this, it may already have been discussed (???) ...The latest posted article about the SuperCharger states that the SC for a Vibe and Matrix are not interchangeable. I'm confused at this statement as both Base models have the same engine configurati...

Speaking of Paint, has anyone considered a rubberized paint? I remember seeing a type of paint that you could dip tools into to rubberize their handles. Do you think something like this painted on the raised sections of the flooring would be worth the trouble? It would theorecticaly do the same job ...

Rivlen

Thank you.There are some other good products here as well, ie the clear vent visors. I actually ended up picking up a set of Pant Saver mats from Wal Mart last night. They are SUV size and fit great in the Passenger Side footwell as it is big enough to cover the whole space aswell as most of the sid...

Rivlen

Has anyone got a set of aftermarket rubber mats that actually fit the drivers side well? I bought a set from Canadian Tire, a set of Deluxe Black Rubber mats, however they are too narrow and because of the dead pedal, do not fit all that well. Are the GM rubber mats any good, or would it be better t...

Rivlen

Hi, I'm currently trying to decide if it is worth adding an alarm to my Vibe. I can understand that if a thief wants the car or contents, they will get it, but for deterant factor and peace of mind which is better to have? A factory installed alarm, or an aftermarket one? Can anyone comment on the d...

Ahh looks like someone beat me to it, posting pics that is. The Pic of the tinted 'Sun Burst' monotone is just like mine, only I have the 16 in. alloys instead of the 17's.I gotta say though, I've only had the car for a few days now, and I love it. I'm already thinking of some mods and such. Also, I...

Hi guys, I'm new here although I have been reading many of your posts over the last few months as I made up mind to pursue a Vibe. It was great to get an 'inside' point of view from the current owners so I could ask more questions at the dealership.I'm posting this to say, that I'm picking up my new...
