Well I just checked the air cabin filter and it didn't smell bad at all nor was it that dirty. I then opened up the hood and checked the air intake and the whole area was clean. No dead rodents...It seems like the problem only exists when I have the engine turned on. It get quite nasty with the A/C ...

The thing is I had just replaced my cabin air filter this past summer. The dead animal idea is certainly a possibility. @ColonelPanic - thanks for the tips man, i will definitly start to do that. I like the idea of having someone disinfect the whole thing. I bought the car used and out of state so I...

Hi guys I have an '03 Vibe and during the past 2-3 months I have been noticing different smells coming from the AC/heat vents. I believe it happens with every configuration of recirculated air, air conditioning on, hot, cold, vents. It smells like vinegar/(removed)/death...and it is completely unbea...

I just checked and sure enough it was the wrong filter in the right box! A 33-2232 in a 33-2252 box...sounds like someone needs some quality control...

I will definitly go and check, thanks guys!

Hi guys, I am currently having a problem installing the K&N filter I just got. This is the model I got: http://www.knfilters.com/searc...-2252I popped out the old filter and for some reason just couldn't fit the K&N filter in there. It seemed too wide to fit in the slot. Any ideas what could...

Well I got the "Magic" eraser and it really lived up to it's name! Unfortunately thought it couldn't get all the paint off the bumper. It did a good job on most of it, but it just couldn't handle the last bit, no matter how hard I scrubbed. What's the next step do you think? Light sandpape...

Thanks!

Well unfortunately due to someone driving foolishly(seems like everyone here in LA) I had a minor accident where the front nose of my Vibe scraped the side of another car. I inspected it and it looks like the black paint from the other persons car has scraped off and is stuck on the front of my car....

What ballpark price would you figure to replace both speakers and the amp. How much should I be spending to get equal or preferably better quality?

Hey guys, I am having a problem on an '03 moons/tunes with a rattling front driver-side speaker. When bass hits certain frequencies, the speaker rattles. Does this sound like the speaker needs to be replaced?

Hah! That was it. Reversed the wires and everything is good to go. Thanx for the help!-Dave Frank

Unfortunetly I don't have a multimeter. I would really appreciate the help! On the bad news side of things, I was trying again this morning(in better light) to switch out the bulbs, but was not only unsuccessful, but it looks like I blew a fuse somehow. None of my domes come on anymore. So it's time...

joatmon - Thanks for the info. I believe it is polarized. Yes this is the map light that is part of the moon roof controls. The reversed polarity makes sense. I hope it doesn't require a rewire, cuz that sounds like quite a difficult task(especially if it ends up not being the issue). I just want to...

Hey guys, I just put in a couple of LED lights for my other dome lights, but for some reason the LED bulb I got for the front map light isn't lighting up. It's the 1895 ba9s bayonet base bulb, so I know it's the correct kind. Any simple things I could have screwed up? Thanks-Dave Frank

Thanks guys. ColonelPanic - Ya it's just for the look. I just ordered them up!ragingfish - I saw that, I was using it as reference, but couldn't find any 1895 type bulbs on the sites I was looking on for the bulbs. I guess they just didn't offer that type, or called it something else.

I have scoured and scoured the forums and superbrightleds.com and cannot seem to find which LED bulb is the one I am looking for to replace my map light bulb(moonroof Vibe). Any ideas?-Dave

Thank you so much sportside! Got it blasting now..hehe

Hi everyone, I just went about replacing the stock HU in a '03 moons/toons but when I started up to test my new unit, I got no audio! The new CD player starts up and has power but I am getting absolutely no signal to any of the speakers. I got it from Crutchfield and followed the directions to the t...

Yah, I have also had bad experiences with FM transmitters. They just don't seem to work the best in the city especially.

Thanks for your inputs! I just think if I have to spend around 200 bucks to adapt an ipod to the stock radio, I may as well get a new HU with that money.

Haha, after looking through pages on this forum, I miss the sticky on the first page!Anyway, it just seems that it is a real pain to get the ipod2car installed on a 2003. Probably should just go to plan B: adding an aftermarket HU with AUX in the back. Thanks guys for the help! Can't wait to start c...

Hey guys, I am getting my new(to me) 2003 Vibe next Friday and am trying to figure out how to attach my iPod in it. As I said it is a 2003 with the single CD player and I believe the moons/toons package (it has a moonroof). Ihave been reading about certain solutions, but I want the ability to contro...
