I just want to say Hi and say what a great site this is. I just purchased my vibe 2 weeks ago. I am very happy with it so far. It's a 04 neptune with the power package. I bought it for my wife so I'm not allowed to do any modifications to it, other than the remote starter. This site has been very informative so far. I'm on the look out for some matting for the back but so far no luck and I passed on the TSB about replacing the body moulding on the 03's to another Vibe owner, I hope he has better luck getting replaced than some of the people on this site. My only complaint about it is I find the sunvisors too small. They don't seem to come down far enough to block out the sun.

Welcome to genvibe! I haven't had a problem with the size of the sunvisors, but you're a lot farther north than I am, so I bet this time of year the sun is closer to the horizon a lot longer for you than for me.There's a company in Ontario that always has a waterproof cargo liner on ebay for about $40. I don't know if anybody here has ever bought one of them, but they look interesting. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 884There's even an Pontiac original Vibe cargo mat on ebay at http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2440715636, that auction is only there for another 5 hours or so. I can;t remember what a cargo mat costs direct from GM. There are a lot of previous treads on cargo mats.Don't forget to tell the 03 vibe owner you gave the TSB to about this site.

The Vibe Mat is $50 when bought with car; but $70 after market at parts counter. I paid the $70 at the dealer - forget to check out e-Bay first.
