Ooh, good idea. Thanks for the suggestion. Would be nice to have it on it's own fuse. Good info to know.

Thank you for the response. I noticed the black wire (ground?) came loose from the screw I attached it to, so I wonder if that was the problem.

I've hard-wired a dash cam to my 08 vibe, but I am not getting any power to it. The idea was to wire it to a fuse that is perpetually powered as I wanted to record video while the car was off and parked. The directions say: "maximum rating is to be no more than 20 amps." Not sure if it cou...

Here is what I have using some industrial strength velcro (the all plastic kind, not the fuzzy cloth kind). Works great:

Thanks. I like that best so far. I tried heavy duty velcro and it seemed to work pretty well actually. I'll post a pic.

Nice Kumquat but my 08 has a different dash config than your 09. I'm in Cali and I think it's illegal here to mount anything on your windshield GTV237 (sorry, should have mentioned that). Yes I know it's basically a matrix Vibenvy (probably why mine's lasted for so long) but it's not the same thing ...

Yo! Wondering how y'all mount your cell phones near your dashboard to use the phone's navigation, blu tooth music, etc. Here is one my friend installed on her Toyota (boo!). http://s15.postimg.org/vldajkyrf/20150717_154559.jpg I have something similar already for my bike and thought I could potentia...

Just a follow up. I fixed it with a couple of:

Splash Shield Retainers from Doorman part # 963-231 from Autozone.

Thanks again.

You guys are so great. Thanks a lot for the info.

My 08 vibe was unfortunately victim of a "hit and run." :( She's mostly OK but there is a plastic plate or cover hanging down from the front underside of my car. I'd like to screw it back in but am not sure what to use. Since it's plastic, I'm guessing it used some sort of plastic nut and ...

Thanks for the link. I'm going to have the installer try this with the Aveo harness.

OK, the crutchfield site says I need it also. Going to give them a call to double check. Thanks for the info.

Hello All, I love the stock stereo in my 09 Vibe, but the time has come to replace it for something with some current features (Pioneer DEH-P9400BH). I called a few install places and got prices--mostly about $260 installed. However, one guy told me that I need a special "module" that is p...
