What is the part number for these clips? They are little white nylon pieces, but they break super easy. The high curbs in So-Cal kill me. My side panels have pulled off like 5 times.

My next project is to run the RCA cables under the factory carpet and into the center console, maybe through the plug that used to be a 12v outlet. Stay tuned.

Re: how to: install Aux-Box on 2005 Moons and Tunes Vibe (scottalexander)

Removing the Stereothis can also be found in detail at:http://www.metraonline.com/dow...5.pdf2. Use a hex driver to undo the four bolts shown here. I used a size 7/16” with duct tape on the inside, since I didn’t have metric on hand. This also made sure that the screw didn’t fall into the dash...
