    Viper RT/10 Car Cover - Washable?

    When I bought my 95 RT/10 almost 4 years ago, it came with a very nice car cover made specifically for the viper. It has a clear plastic panel where the rear license plate is. Needless to say, it needs to be washed but because of the plastic panel I have not done so because of possible damage...

    My hard top rattles like crazy any more

    My Gen I Double Bubble hardtop has a short front latch that looks like a thumb and forefinger together in the shape of a "C". I have to put the handle of a pair of pliers or something else in the opening between the fingers to get any leverage to close them. Does anyone know if there a special...

    INSTALLING SIDE EXHAUST COVERS ON GEN I

    I'm trying to install the side covers with the stock insulation on a GEN I and I have a question that I'm sure many of you can answer. When installing the top of the exhaust cover over the lip on the car, does the skin of the exhaust cover slide directly over the lip on the car or does one...

    RT/10 Hardtop Questions

    Chuck, I'm pretty sure the latch moved freely off the car but I will check it again. The latches on mine are about 2-1/2" long and in the shape of an elongated "C". Is that correct?

    Gen I Interior trim black paint match??

    I know I have seen a post about this before but did a search and nothing came up. I'm trying to find something off the shelf that will closely match the black dash and trim color in my 95 RT/10. It's not flat black for sure because flat black is a shade of two lighter. I tried Dupli Color...

    Side Exhaust Cover Insulation Alternative?

    The guy I spoke with said to apply it to the inside of the exhaust cover with the aluminized surface facing the exhaust. He also stated that moisture would not affect it. As you said, it sounds to easy and it may be but for the small investment, I'm going to try it. It should be here in 4-5...

    anyone leave their battery tender on when car is covered?

    Re: What\'s the best battery tender? Does everyone suggest keeping a battery tender hooked up anytime the car is sitting idle in the garage. I bought mine in July and have never had a problem with the battery yet, but I don't want to either. If it will help avoid a problem, I'll go get one today.

    Side Exhaust Cover Paint Question

    I'm repainting the side exhaust covers on my 95 RT/10 as well as the front fascia. The exhaust cover is the same as the body gloss black except for the center section that extends from the front to the rear and has the hole for the exhaust tip to exit. This part of the exhaust cover is more of...

    Removing Stock Cats

    Well I finally replaced the stock cats with the 3" straight pipes to see if I going to stay with them or go with the high flow cats. It certainly is louder but in my opinion not obnoxious. I just have to straighten all the pictures in the house after I've started it in the garage! What I do...

    Removing Stock Cats

    Whoever installed the catback cut the exit of the stock cat at the 3" diameter on the taper and then welded it to the 3" inlet of the catback muffler. I'd post a picture but so far I haven't been able to. Do you have to have your own website to download a picture here?

    Removing Stock Cats

    I've got stock headers and flex pipe. The end of the flex pipe entering the stock cat is 2-1/2" and the stock cat exits into a 3" opening for the Belanger cat back muffler. So if I delete the stock cat I need a pipe to go from 2-1/2" to 3". Am I missing something.

    Clear Bra Film

    Does the deluxe kit come with film for the front of the side sills on a 95 RT/10. I'm just getting ready to repaint the front fascia and the side sills so the timing is perfect. How much for the deluxe kit for a 95 and what is included? I sent you a PM but maybe you didn't get it. Thanks.

    Removing Stock Cats

    I have stock headers and stock cats followed by Belanger Cat Back muffler on my 95 RT/10. I am considering removing the stock cats and replacing with a 3" tube. I know it will be louder but also keep the temp of the side exhaust cooler. It seems to me I read on previous posts somewhere that...
