nice work!with 2 subs, i'll definitely hear you before i see you around town

Amtron · Post by **Amtron** » Wed Nov 19, 2008 3:47 am

Thanks guys!And yeah, they do pack a punch!Still haven't spotted you around yet, every Vibe that looks like yours makes me turn my head haha. Do you still have that Newfoundland flag on the back?

nope --- removed it when i got the overlays --- took 2 weeks before my wife noticed, after which I got an ear full....she's the newfie, but I wanted a cleaner looking vibe.....she just doesn't get it

Haha some people just don't get it. My parents keep nagging me about doing stuff to my car. My mom said I spend too much time worrying about my car and not enough time studying. I told her I'm sorry for having a hobby, and then guilted her about trying to take away my fun.

Amtron · Post by **Amtron** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 4:11 am

I also re-wired the lights in my subwoofer box. I had, err, problems with them last time But I found a good way to wire them now, so I am again fire free.Oh and sorry for the crappy quality...Lights.Switch.More pictures below.

Wolfman213 · Post by **Wolfman213** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 12:16 am

since you have the taillights tinted, when you do the projectors, are you going topaint them black as well?

Amtron · Post by **Amtron** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:25 am

Do you mean the chrome part, or the lense?I'm undecided on painting the chrome...I'm sure someone else will get their projectors installed before me, so I'll see what the difference looks like with it painted and unpainted. Do you think I should?If you meant the lense, no I won't paint that, it's illegal in my area although I think tinted headlights or covers would be awesome on a black vibe.

keithvibe · Post by **keithvibe** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:30 am

I plan on opening mine back up and painting the chrome black

keithvibe · Post by **keithvibe** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:39 am

I would say for the black car, so it blends better to make it gloss black.. but i plan on making mine flat.

Amtron · Post by **Amtron** » Fri Jan 02, 2009 2:59 am

Okay so I am officially done tampering with the lights in the subs...nothing worse than smelling burning on the highway...I just can't figure out the wiring for it, I just can't! This time the control piece for the lights started getting very hot, so I permanently turned the damn thing off. Frig.

Here's some pics of my Magnaflow catback exhaust that was installed yesterday.

I've finally got around to posting up my pictures (even though I've been doing absolutely nothing lately). A few mods have been done since the last update.Cosmo Racing cold air intake installed.Retrofit projectors.Ballasts for projectors.Non-winter shot of tinted tails.The switch on top of the battery is my temporary ghetto switch for the angel eyes. I still have to figure out where I want to put the switch in the cabin.

Finally -- the projectors look good...how is it wired (drl disabled?)

Quote, originally posted by bull77 Â»Finally -- the projectors look good...how is it wired (drl disabled?)Nope, I didn't disable them. And I didn't because it was a combination of being afraid to screw up, and not really understanding the point of it. I mean I know it stops the flicker, but I don't even notice a flicker.

amtron- four neons on the right passenger side under the dash, where did you put them, on my vibe the engine control thing-a-ma-jig is there and so it is interferring with putting leds or neons there, the drivers side is easy because there is a lip that could easily hide them and a large expanse of space. If possible could you put pics as well?

If possible could you put pics as well?Yeah I can try and get some pics up for you, but basically I ziptied them to some wires up by the steering column. I just put some padding on top of the neon tubes right where it could potentially hit the steering column and break.

ok, that would be cool could u put some up of the passenger side to becasue at the moment that is my problem side.

I will eventually get around to posting a for sale thread, however, for the time being, if anyone is interested in any of the parts you have seen in/on my car, let me know if you would be interested in buying them.(Not including CB exhaust, angel eyes, and taisl)

If so and they're in good shape, I want 'em! Thx

Hey Amtron....you still on GenVibe?

Amtron · Post by **Amtron** » Fri May 27, 2011 8:05 am

Quote, originally posted by A Psycho Martyr Â»Hey Amtron....you still on GenVibe?Yeah I pop in now and then, haven't commented lately. I've been meaning to post up a F/S thread (and will soon), but in the mean time, I have the following for sale:- Cosmo CAI- Vibrant Strut Bar- MOMO Automatic transmission petal coversI've had a few people ask to buy the STB back in the day when I was on all the time, but the PM's have since been deleted....so it's up for grabs again to whomever! I think Vibrant has discontinued these? I'm excited to sell this off, I know someone is gonna love it. $75? + shippingI can probably work out a deal with the CAI...it's got some dings in a few places and you'll be needing a new cone filter. PM me, reply in thread, or email.matt.desjarlais@hotmail.comI would prefer to keep it local...hope someone from Ottawa jumps on this quick!
