Thanks for the tips on the wires and rca cables. That is a crazy setup, I'm sure it kicks like you couldn't believe. I throw stuff in my car way too often and want to be able to have a sub in there and forget about it. Nice job on all that though. Bike looks nice too. I need to move south so I can r...

I just ordered a Pioneer TS-SW2541D 10" 4-ohm Shallow Subwoofer, got it on amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-...YB8OO. I have a Pioneer 6500 for a stereo.I have been reading through these 2 threads:Audiovibes: http://forums.genvibe.com/zero...age=2Briantforce: http://forums.genvibe.com/zero...

I bought a '03 GT and I'm moving this week so I traded cars with my dad and he's really enjoying. I would love to hear a review of the '09 GT from someone who has driven the '03 GT. Congrads on the purchase.

I use MB1 and change it every 3-4k. I could probably run it longer but they've got the 3k/3 month engraved into everybody's head. $21 bucks at Walmart plus filter.

They Legend was a great car back then and still was. I had both the gen 1 and gen 2 so I may be biased but oh well. I picked up 90 Legend LS Coupe (Gen 1) for my first car and it was a blast. 2.7L V6, leather, power seat w/ memory, moonroof, trip computer w/ distance till empty. That was a great car...

Comprehensive is different that glass coverage, at least down here. I would double check your package or call your insurance company. I had to have a new windshield because I had a crack in mine and the guy who did it did a hack job (Mobile Glass Installation, just a FYI) I talked to the insurance c...

Whelan,It is easy to do, just take your time the first time. Sublime's tutorial would be a good place to start.Sublimes Brake TutorialRead that, print it out and you should be set. Post up any questions if you got any.

I found a 08 Vibe on Edmunds.com with auto, preferred package, side & head airbags, abs and stalitrak.MSRP $20,905INVOICE $19,647Those prices are before rebates.

It won't smear on the car unless the pain is really bad or the clay is old and not good anymore. When I helped my buddy with the detail place, we did 2 cars that got overspray from someone painting something outside. You could see the overspray on the car adn the finish felt like 30 grid sandpaper. ...

The Clay Bar helps to get contaminants out of the paint. It is made out of clay, hence the name clay bar. Clay is used because it will absorb the contaminants into the clay without scratching the paint. This is done because even with a good wash there is still some things left on your paint. If you ...

Whelan, that black looks pretty good. I bet it's since he's cheating and has Toyota paint. I do like the fact though that I can drive a snow storm and then through the rain and my car is clean again, not gonna lie about that. Most of my cars have been like that (90 Acura Legend LS Coupe 5spd, 92 Acu...

Those stickers were removed on the 2nd detail that happened a few weeks ago. Didn't do it the first time around because it was still under warranty from the place that I bought it. I paid $9500 for '03 GT w/ 38,500 miles with 6 month / 6,000 mile warranty back in Sept / Oct.

I first got my '03 Vibe GT in October of 07 with 38,500 miles on it. I detailed it when I first got it and detailed it a few weeks ago.My detailing process:1.) Hosed the car off to get all the dirt off that I could.2.) Washed it with some good car wash soap going from top to botom and dried it off.3...

You are correct in that they are often used interchangeably but 99% of today's cars have moonroofs. Both sunroofs and moonroofs open. A sunroof has to be opened to let light in and were used back in the 80's and early 90's on BMW's. The panel was body colored. A moonroof is what is common today and ...

I also use the mobile 1. I get it at walmart, 5L for $22 seems like a very good price to me, if it is still a class 4 like it used to be. If it is now a class 3, there are probably better alternatives. Anyone know if it is class 3 or 4? I know that amsoil or royal purple is probably better but not s...

Thats interesting that they didn't ask for the records when you traded in the car. Although there is really no reason for them to have the records since they should change all the fluids anyway before they sell it to someone.How much did they give you for the trade-in, if you don't mind me asking. I...

I'll second the garmin nuvi, although I got the girlfriend the nuvi 200W which is just the widescreen version. Its a very good gps but it doesn't have a lot of thrills.

I have a '03 GT and I'm managing about 29mpg in the winter. I was up around 30 or 31 during the summer. Some of you getting low 20's must be doing all city driving because I've never seen mine that low and I get on it sometimes.

Nice to see your using the vibe. I just put on some Michelin X-Ice with Kosei K3 wheels on the vibe. Haven't had the chance to hit any snow with it yet but I've good things about those tires and they have to be better than crappy all seasons. I've never had a problem with a fwd car with snows on all...

I'll throw my numbers in here just for comparison sake. I have an '03 Vibe GT which is the 1.8L High Output w/ 6 speed manual.In the summer I got 31/32 mixed driving and 34 straight highway. In the winter it seems to have dropped a few mpg. If your looking at keeping the truck I would say you don't ...

Welcome Dzone. Glad to see another GT owner here, we can always use more. I myself picked up a '03 GT a few months ago and am very pleased with it.

I remember it being on "It takes a thief" on Discovery Channel, but I thought they put it on both sides and even though they say its clear I'm not sure you'd want to be looking through it all the time on the car. It might be a good idea for side windows though. Probably not cheap either.

Beautiful bikes, I'm going to be looking to upgrade this year. It was was first year riding and I'm ready for something with a bit more power.

I've done the whole install with running wire before. It turned out pretty good but it took me a whole Saturday to do. Defiantly not going to happen with this cold weather though. Is there a way to hook up another amp under the seat there. It doesn't look like it would be easy with those wiring harn...

I have an '03 GT. I have a moon roof and 6 speakers / single cd w/ amp. So do I have the moons & tunes? I would like to upgrade the head unit and the speakers but don't want to mess things up. Are the speakers on mine going to be 2 ohm? I got a set of Polk 6-3/4" that I want to put but don'...

How would I have a Canadian Vibe? I've seen the amp under the passenger seat. If I want to get new speakers though I'll need to get 2 ohm? And what should I do if I want a new headunit?

I have an '03 GT so mine is a little different from what your looking at. I did test drive 1 base and 1 base w/ awd. They were both automatics and sluggish, but I usually drive a stick so thats what I'm used to. I bought the vibe and then moved the week after that so I loved the hauling capacity it ...

I've heard bad things about Fram, too. I usually use Purolator or you can never go wrong with OEM, if its reasonably.

Got 300 more grains of rice.

Nice, looks good Whelan
