Thanks very handy site. Question. What size bulb does it use?Also, will and LED bulb work without a resistor? Or is it 'plug n play'?

MSAGRO

Hiya Ou-grizz, I know this ^ wasn't directed at me, but it's been quite a while since I have been on this forum.Yeah, I still have my Vibe, but it's now pretty much my GF's car.It's pretty much just a hauler for me. This is what I drive now:Since my GF has "taken over" the Vibe, she has es...

"Your shifter has shrinkage. Was it cold when you took that photo?"LOL K-NINE.Yeah, I cannot wait until Winter when I have to scrape the ground in order to shift.

Nice spot Kincaid!

Go figure cptnsolo, all this fun and 30MPG

MSAGRO

Oh yeah, it's 2.5 inches off the ground. Feels like a legal go kart.It was odd, after my test drive I climbed into the Vibe, and I swear it felt like a Buick LeSaber, but only for a few minutes.Very careful on the speed bumps, driving around them is best.

MSAGRO

Yep, stubby short throw

I am now a proud ower of 2 4 cylinder Toyotas.Still keepin the Vibe in top shape, but I felt I needed something for the summer.It's a 1991 MR2. 2.2, same engine as a Camry of that year.It's been debadged, so many people don't know what it is.Like owning a Ferrari without the headaches or cost.Photos...

Yes, be careful, only that wire.

MSAGRO

Not even "snip-snip"Just one snip of the red/white wire

MSAGRO

Yes Mado, tight fit. I'm over 6 feet tall. Put the driver seat all the way back, and wedge your back against the brake pedal.. and for the love of all thats Holy, snip the correct wire!

MSAGRO

Yep, that simple.

MSAGRO

Quote, originally posted by ou.grizzly Â»Question is why would the owner put over $10,000 dollars into it and sell itI did the same thing 2 years ago before I bought my Vibe. I had a Corolla that I put over 4k in upgrades, yet sold it at the same price as a stock one.

Quote, originally posted by vibolista Â»Ok, y'all... if your Vibe runs away and you're still in it, use your brakes and your ace in the hole... your key. Turn the motor off.

Nice car, btw...where'd you get the dimpled bumper guard? I'd love one of those...[/QUOTE]Came with the car. I belive it was a factory option. Dealer may stock it.

MSAGRO

Just curious, what was the top 'cheap' car?My guess as the most economical car would be the Toyota Echo.A bit small for my taste, but Toyota reliability and 40 mpg, AND they sell for only about 4 or 5 thousand.

I'm with you babycatcher for waiting for the Orange Vibe. Hard to find but worth it.Makes other colors seem boring.I'm still waiting for an 2010 Ignition Orange Vibe at the right price:
