Just as trb said, yes, K&N #69-8613TS will fit any 2009-2010 Vibe 2.4L Base, AWD or GT. We have them on both our 2009 Vibe GTs. Mine has been installed since July of 2009 and my mom's has been installed since July of 2010. Neither vehicle has had any issues related to the intakes. It's also important to point out that both our K&N air filters were replaced with AEM Brute Force Dryflow air filters (AEM #21-203BF) at the time of installtion. I didn't want to have to worry about possibly over-oiling the K&N filters and causing issues with the MAF sensors or anything.

As far as other parts that will fit your 2009 Vibe GT, unfortunately there aren't too many due to the limited aftermarket for the 2009-2010 Vibe and 2009-2013 Matrix. Let me know what specific parts you are looking for and I can provide you with better information on whether it's available or not.

Engine, Transmission, Exhaust, Most Electronics, brakes and suspension are all the same. The HVAC system is made up of different components but works the same. TB spacers don't do much unless you like noise.
