New vibe owner joining in the convo.

Post by Lokey88 »

Hey everyone,I just bought my first vibe 2 weeks ago and I love it. I was told about this forum by a friend of mine. I'm hoping to do some mods soon, hopefully some of you can give me tips. I bought a 2010 Jet Black Metallic Vibe base model. I immediately tinted the windows and now I'm just trying to figure out what to change next.I'm looking to add a DVD touchscreen head unit, a custom 10" sub box, component speakers, cold air intake, HID headlights, and add foglights.I've seen a lot of these topics posted already, but maybe someone can help me out. Look forward to posting here,-Lokey

Quote, originally posted by Lokey88 »It's a 1.8L base. Thanks for the tips on my mods.You're very welcome !Since you have the 1.8L, I would recommend checking out K&N's intake for the Corolla. The Corolla engine bay looks identical to that of the 2009-2010 Vibe 1.8L so it should fit perfectly.
