It is an actual metal cigar lighter. When i push in the cigar lighter into the socket, it goes in, but when i pull it out, the whole thing comes out and the cigar lighter is not hot enough (no power to make it hot)

The Cigar Lighter in my Vibe 03 looks very flimsy - rotates and comes out easily (is this the way it is for all vibes?). I plugged in my mobile car charger, but it doesn't seem to work. Should i ask the mechanic guy to fix it or can i fix it myself? Should i get a new one or can i repair the old one...

My 03 Vibe has 105000 miles on it. The service center where i usually go to do the oil change have been using Valvoline 5W30 on my car.Should i stick with it or should i change the oil to castrol high mileage? Please let me know which oil (brand/type) should i use?Thanks.

Thanks for the info. Will try it around over the weekend and let you know how it went and how the car handles.

I have a Vibe 03 2WD. When i go in highway speeds (above 60), the steering shakes (wobbles) - what could be the reason? I would like it to be pretty smooth without shaking at high speeds. What should i do to stop the shaking?Thanks.

Apart from these cables, should i also buy a power cable ?!

Should i get the power cables & capacitor?!I has a few cables with it. But i didn't check for the power cable !!!

Yep. Got it yesterday. Looks OK. Called several installation guys - all charge 50+ $$$ Fishing for the cheapest !!

Guys, I've gone ahead and ordered the (KENWOOD 10" POWERED 200W SUBWOOFER KSC-WD250 KSCWD250B) which Sublimewind recommended. I am a newbie in terms of installing car stuff - can i install this myself or should i take it to some install place like "Audio Express", etc ?!? Is there a s...

Can you give me the make and model of your sub and amp?Thanks.

Thanks for the info.Just happened to stop at Best Buy last night, was lobbying around the car stereo section. The BestBuy guy told me i can get good BASS only if i have a two channel amp and seperate Subwoofers - he tells me the connection to the amp can be taken from the HU !!

Sure, Thanks Vibe007.

Cant it be always turned ON?

Good One. Thanks Sublimewind.All i've got to do is get this sub and the high-low converter, fix the converter to the back speakers and fix the RCA from the converter to this inbuilt amp - i'm done - right?!

My Vibe does not have Monsoon System Should try to do something like Vibe007 said.Does these subs do the trick - Roadmaster 6.5" BassBlaster Subwoofer (its available in walmart for 20$) - Can finish the job quickly and cheap Vibe007 - should i fit the Converter (High ⁄ Low level) inside the bac...

Thanks for the reply.What is a Monsoon System?Yep. I dont want to use a different head unit, but just add bass (amp/sub) to the existing hu. Can someone please elaborate more on this?

My audio system lacks the "bass" effect - need to know if the factory fitted audio system has subwoofer output? If yes, can i plug subwoofers directly to it? If not, can i have a 2 way amp and have two subwoofers at the back?Its a 2003 Vibe - Factory fitted audio system.Any advice in this ...

I recently bought a 03 Pontiac Vibe - this does not have the subwoofers (i like the big bass sound) - can someone please let me know how to install a Subwoofer (in the back) and also an amplifier.Thanks.
