New to the Forums

Post by acleek »

Howdy All,Wanted to introduce myself in the forums. I own a 2004 Arctic Vibe. I've had it for about 2 years now and it just rolled over 60K. By day I'm a technical writer for an Elevator Company, and by night I'm a tinkerer and avid electronics engineer. I'm married and have 2 cats and a German Shepherd. I plan to fulfill some of the user requests on having some instructions on how to do things to their Vibes. So with the permission of the GenVibe Owner's I'd like to use their Name and images and have the write ups on this site. If that's cool. If not, I'll just make some quick little write ups and share those, but why not make 'em fancy looking right? Anyway. Planning on doing a Custom Passenger Air filter guide this evening. Going to be a great way to save 35$. So yeah, I'll post were pertinent. Just wanted to introduce myself and help with the community. -Andy

HAH, No $$$. How about a Hobby Electronics Engineer? That's a more fitting title to my weekend electrocutions. And I have attached a picture of my vibe. Back when it was clean. Parking under those pine trees has taken it's toll on my nice shine. Any recommendations on a good paint cleaner to get sap off?
