I guess Death is your Vibe. Looks like he might be mad,you hit his mirror on the snow bank.

Hey you might want to look up proclip, they make mounts for mp3/gps/cell phones that do not require any installation. It completely negates the use of a suction mount. http://www.proclipusa.com/?sec...ight= I've been using one on my '06 Malibu for a few years and its been great. For everyone else, I have already contacted them and they said they will notify me when they have a mount designed for the '09 Vibe/Matrix.

Very nice vibe! How much of a drop are those Teins? I was thinking of getting a set of lowering springs next summer, and your drop looks just right.Edit: Oh, and did you have to do anything else to your suspension when you put them on, camber-wise and so on?

I no longer have the Teins on. I went back to stock. The Teins gave me about 1.5" drop all around and I didn't have to do anything else to it. I had the alignment checked after I dropped it, but nothing changed.

if you click both my garage links in my sig you can see the difference between the drops. my 06 has the tein H-techs that were installed on raffe's vibe and my 04 has the tein S-techs which gave the car a 2.2" drop all around.
