See this thread for current info:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=10754I tried to get them through one of the online dealers and they arent shown yet. I will give them a week or so to make it into the systemBob

Need a little more room on the right side. I am right in the corner.Bob

The mud flaps wont fit the 2004 Two tone vibes. The cladding has been updated and the new flaps have not been released yet. The exisitng front flaps will only fit 2003 two tones that havent had their cladding replaced and 2004-04 monotone vibes. I too am waiting for the new flaps which should be rep...

What everyone else said. A 2 inch opening on the hitch is for Class III through Class VI hitches and the minimums on those start at 3500 lbs I think. You will need to buy the adapter. A good place to get tow accessories is http://www.etrailer.comBob

Having owned more trucks than cars:The truck pictured on the first page is not a F-550 (Superduty). Its a F-150 (lightduty full size). Might not be rice but its certainly gay. It would be like putting 427 emblems on your Vibe.Sorry but I just had to point that one outBob

The GM card rebate is only if you are a GM credit card user and have made the purchases to get the GM bucks. I think its like 5% of purchases up to a preset limit for certain models. I used my GM bucks to reduce my Vibe by 1,000.00. Sometimes they run specials where you can use more bucks than the s...

Actually, the Conquest rebate is just for owning another brand of car, you dont necessarily need to trade it in. I just showed him the registration from the wife Expedtion and badda bing, another 1k off. What they didnt know was the tags that I transferred onto the Vibe were from my Gran Prix. heheh...

I had to special order mine and picked it up a month ago today. Paid 100.00 over invoice and got 4k off. 1k GM card, 2k instead of financing, and the 1k conquest rebate. My price out the door was like 15,100 (we have 6.5% sales tax here). You may be able to go under invoice at this point. KBB.com is...

I can chime in on this one. I am 6'6 and about 270lbs and find the Vibe very comfortable. I primarily use the car to go from Virginia to Illinois and for the long trips its a very comfortable car. I have more head and leg room in the Vibe than I do in our Expedition. The only trouble I have is with ...

Nope, sure dont. And I got the pleasure of trying to order that little cupholder robbing ashtray (I like to use them for candy wrappers) and much to my dismay the darn thing is like 30 some dollars list. Owner heard that and told the parts guy to order me one gratis. Said something like that should ...

So it wouldnt be a good time to tell you I am exceeding the mfg specs and getting over 36 per tank To be fair, I have driven 1300 miles and 1150 of that is in 3 trips(650, 250, 250). Gonna do another 650 on Friday. I am not used to driving something where the gas tank can outlast the tinkle tank Bob

Is that something that is only with the 03's. I could swear my 04 pops immediately.ThanksBob

Just do what I do and own several. That wasy you never really tire of one. I do have a couple of older ones to keep the cost in line. Current lineup:2004 Vibe2001 Eddie Bauer Expedition (Wifes)1990 Jeep Wrangler1989 Ford F350 Crewcab DieselI used to swap out vehicles quite a bit and the trades were ...

David,Thats the Pontiac bra and other than the initial installation, looks like it should work well and be easy to remove and reinstall.Bob

Here is one post tint with the bra on as well. The tint is just normal tinting and its 35% on the back five windows and 50% on the DS and PS. DS and PS tinting is illegal in Illinois but as long as you only go 50%, you should be ok. Cost me 219.00 and there isnt an imperfection to be found. We have ...

Pics as promised. this is right after I brought it home from the dealer

I just installed my bra this evening to avoid all the chips and bugs. I cant say enough what a pain in the (removed) the fasteners are. Doesnt help that the instructions are lacking. Was I supposed to remove the existing fasteners in order to insert the ones provided with the bra? I must say thought...

Thanks for the IM Dave, I think its going to be a toss up until I get there but am leaning back towards the 20 on the backs and 50 up front to give a little more security and make the fronts appear lighter. I am not going to change the wheels since I upgraded to the 16 inch aluminums. It did come wi...

Haha, was'nt sweating the tint job. I was sweating getting the Vibe in time. Was supposed to be in two weeks ago leaving plenty of time for break in and tinting. Rolled into the dealership around noon today for a tint job tomorrow morning and a 1100 mile road trip in the next 10 days. Bob

I was starting to sweat a little because I have an appt tomorrow for the window tinting (made it the day I ordered the Vibe 2 months ago) and I leave again for Virginia on Sunday. I spend 2 weeks a month in our Virginia office and the rest of the time in my home office in Illinois. My business pays ...

Its just all good natured ribbing from the dealer. Actually I would consider him a friend. He assumed I would take the 0% and I went out and got a credit union loan at 3.09% and took the 2k. Then I remind him that I have a GM card and to count those earnings. Then I tell him what I am reading here a...

Haha, older than you think but not there yet. I'm 37 and unless I get a discount for graduating a daughter from potty training, I probably have a few years to go. My dealer already thinks I am stealing the car anyway so one more discount or rebate and he would likely slap me. Gotta love living outsi...

I'm just happy to get it. My Vibe comes in this week and with the 2k instead of 0%, 1k GM card, and 1k Conquest. my 04 Vibe is right at 15k out the door. I got two Fords and a Jeep in the driveway so I will show them whatever they want. Funny that I sold a Gran Prix to replace with the Vibe so the o...

Just my .02.If you need trailer brakes, chances are you are exceeding the tow capacity of the Vibe. Isnt the capacity of the Vibe 1500lbs? I dont think trailer brakes are required until you cross 3500 lbs. My Enclosed motorcycle trailer is single axle (no brakes) and weighs like 1250 empty and 3000 ...

Can you tell me more about the two items listed below?$1000 conquest rebate$500 thing/certificate from the dealerMy Vibe arrives on the truck in the next two weeks and I am taking the 2,000 cash back and the 1,000 on the gm card. Since it didnt come in March, I missed out on the additional 500 back ...

David,Thanks for the data. I am sure she will adjust and if she doesnt, no big deal (She cut me such a deal on my Wrangler that I probably owe her). She has done several cars for me and I couldnt be happier with her work. By the way, did you know her husband accidentally shot her with a high powered...

I have a good line on OEM GM Majorguard Warranties for the Vibe if you're interested. I have dealt with the company on my Expedition and Crew Cab so I feel comfortable with them. They absolutely beat the pants off local dealers.5 yr 100k - 100 deduct - 1285.006 yr 100k - 100 deduct - 1530.00Tack on ...

Yikes, it shouldnt be. I live about 15 miles north of Danville and I can be in Chicago in under 2 hours. I guess if you are north of Chicago, it could be a good jaunt though. I just talked to Lisa this morning and all 7 windows for 239.00. She will even do a windshield band if I want although I am n...

BTW, you can just buy the hood piece from GM. That was the part number I provided. It should be 30-35 bucksBob

Thanks, happy to be of help. Now all I need is for the car carrier to bring my new toy and I will be set. Glad that I found this website. The info is pricelessBob

I just ordered a bunch of stuff from:http://www.1stpontiacparts.comAlthough they dont show the part you are looking for, if you send them an email, they will let you know if they can get it. For OEM GM parts, they are the cheapest I have found.The part number you need is:12498125BobOn edit: I got th...

I would second Lisa's in Danville. She has done a couple of vehicles for me and her work and prices are the best. She does warranty the tint for as long as you own the car. My Vibe is due to be delivered in late April and I already have it scheduled in to her. Bob
