Beauty! I picked up my Black '03 GT in the Spring of 2012 (two days before being laid off :roll:). She's got similar curb rash and paint peeling on the rims. What did it run you for machining and painting the rims. I love the look of black rims, and the trough looks great too. Did/do you have any i...

Thanks, mud flaps came with the vibe so not to sure! Do have to trim them though with the lowering they scrape when taking a roundabout at 80kmh

It was about what they claimed it as around 1.6" I honestly forget, I forgot to measure the ride height before I dropped it, then I measured the ride height of a vibe i saw on the street and now i forget what i figured out, measure your ride height front and rear and ill measure mine

Thanks guys and everyone else who voted!

Here's the Garage Picked up the vibe in sept 2011 with just a smidge over 80,000km on it after it had been driving by a couple for a year who bought it from an 80 year old man with only 60,000km on it. All 4 rims had bad curb rash and peeling paint, there was some trim pieces missing with some surfa...

Hitched up the trailer for the first time

Used gift card i had for the car wash, got the seats shampooed got all the previous owners stains out! Interior looks like new again!

They did a good job shining the outside to!

Sweet thanks for the link! The vibe is my summer car so its parked in the garage all winter which gives me tons of time to work on it. Last winter was the stereo, suspension, intake, lights, wheels, etc. So slowly picking up ideas for next winter

Ok so I have my 2003 gt with a touch over 80,000 km on it. So far I put in a kenwood dvd touchscreen deck in, replaced all the speakers with JBL, put in my alpine 10" type s sub and amp that i switch between my blazer (in the background) and the vibe, i also wired in a backup camera. The rims w...

Took vibe back to advance to get stereo looked at. Was acting very wonky. The menu button ejected, the eject button turned up the volume, the power button turned down the volume, and the left side of the touchscreen would select random buttons. After they told me I would have to wait 2-4 weeks for t...

Further contemplated getting a trailer hitch to tow this

Stunning! Question, that's a Thule bike rack right? And it doesn't need the cross bars, just the rails from a car's roof rack to mount? I ask because my friend's looking for a solution to carry his mountain bikes around on his Subaru Legacy, and he doesn't have cross bars. This looks like it would ...

Lowered it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ordered up lowering springs! and continued contemplating getting a custom license plate that says rator

Update: second one, as i accidentally hit close and not post after i typed this the first time.ANYWAYS after the problem persisted after removing the scosche i proceeded to manually bypass the factory amp, thats when i got a dc offset error on the deck, which means that a speaker wire is grounding o...

The scosche is acting up and putting minimum gain on no matter what the settings are, good though scosche gave me an ra# and are going to warranty it though. Just have to decide when it gets back if i will put it back in or not.Edit:Well worked fine last night and on my way to work this morning unti...

Turns out the scosche was acting up

OK so 2003 With m&tPut a new HU in , new speakers, sub & amp.Driving the other day started the car up and the sound was very tinny and quiet. Turned off the car started it again and it worked fine. Next time i started the car the same problem happened again and i could not fix it. Got home a...

waxed it!

solved my bi-xenon wiring nightmare. Put all the pieces I had off back together and refinished the headlights!

I did, didnt help the problem at first. Messed around the the wiring and got it to work though. Just had to remove the diode and ground the middle pin.If I end up having problems ill let you know and get one of your relays.Thanks

Where do you get that relay kit from? and how much is it?

Finished installing the stereo deck and backup camera, got all the wiring run for the amp, all thats left is 2 new speakers on the passenger side, but need to wiggle the vibe out of storage to get at that side...............In the process of running the power for the amp I pulled the grommet for the...

Got ahold of HIDEXTRA. Told them the problem, they sent out a relay kit to me at no charge

Ya that electrical tape was def me pissing around with the wiring configurations. Its a kit from hidextra.com and with every other vehicle ive had with them they have never had to use a relay as they have all worked off the cars power supply, however none of them were a hi/lo

I was thinking it might be a relay, but was not sure as there is no problem with the fogs and no relay, and same lights in another vehicle give me no problem. Im going to have to give the guys i got the system from **** for saying a relay harness was only optional for this vehicle.I take it no one h...

OK. So I am having quite the issue getting these BI-Xenon HID's to workThere are 3 prongs on the headlight socket for the vibe, | _ | (left, middle, right)Attached is a picture of the harness (I have removed the prongs to try switching their orientation), the white connector goes to the magnet for t...

Ok so thats what i needed to know, i have the battery out and im to lazy to hook it back up to see which wire it is, so the orange wire is variable voltage and the orange/white is a constant 12v when the headlights are on correct?

Ok so ill try to keep it short and sweeti have a kenwood HU. the orange/white wire is labelled "illum" and in the instructions says to hook up to the vehicles dimmer control wire. Now on the metra harness does this hook up to the orange/white or the orange wire?Also its a dvd UNIT as well,...

Did connecting the orange wire on the harness to the orange/white on the HU work for the dimmer when the lights turn on?

Looks nice, im putting in the 418 with a non kenwood backup camera, where did you tie in the reverse sensor wire to behind the dash?

Stared at it sitting parking in the garage for the winter, so then i went out and picked up a kenwood double din deck, jbl speakers and an alpine amp. Waiting on the rear view camera to wire into the deck to come in. now just waiting for the cai to come in so i can start putting that in as well .......

Only the best for my toys! Premium and Royal Purple all the way!Thanks, rims I had a groove cnc machined in them to fill with the red paint so its perfectly circular.Hid's are in the fogs, waiting for the hi/lows to come.......Stereo is next in line....then????suggestions?......when it come time to ...

Hello There, I am new to this forum but not to forums. A few months ago I bought a 2003 vibe gt with 80,000 km on it for just a touch over 7g. This is my second car and is my summer driver and currently in storage (Aka my garage). My parents had a 2003 vibe gt that they bought new in 2003 and had fo...
