    Rent viper for a wedding?

    Howdy friends, and greetings from a Texan on the west coast! I'm getting married in San Antonio in a couple weeks, and I want to drive a viper as our "get-away" vehicle. The wedding is too far away from my current home to practically drive or ship my personal viper, so I've been trying to...

    Where is the heat coming from??????

    The above posts had me cracking up! Anyway, just wanted to point out that I have the same issue with heat in that area. The excess heat has manifested itself by causing my fan relays to die on two separate occasions during high-rpm "spirited" driving with the A/C on. Getting stuck wih no fan...

    Alpine Stereo install

    Did same thing with my '02 RT/10 back in July (new alpine head unit with factory amp). Could have done all the wiring myself, but found it easiest to get a local stereo shop to custom make a harness for about $45. Just bring in the old OEM head unit to "prove" to the guy that it's not a...

    window stuck 1/2 way down

    Strange. Maybe try this to narrow down the culprit: Use the procedure for removing the glass listed in the shop manual, just don't actually remove the glass: with the interior door panel removed, undo the clip on the metal clamp at the bottom/center of the glass that attaches that clamp to...

    window stuck 1/2 way down

    Not sure how far you've taken the door apart yet, but here's a scenario I dealt with: The trailing edge of the window is held by two metal "clamps" (upper and lower) that are epoxied to the glass. Each clamp has a roller that guides the window up and down along a vertical channel. In my...

    Rear(center) Speakers

    I'll let the Gen I guys answer which speaker fits best, etc. (since mine's a little different) However, when you do the swap, it is WELL worth it to put dynomat sound-deadening material on the inside of the plastic rear bulkhead (especially the area around the speakers). It made a...

    Easiest emblem change?

    Thanks for the replies, guys. I'll probably look into getting them painted (if I can find a quality shop that doesn't overcharge).

    $6.87 solved my overheating problem

    Oh, and one last comment: I'm all for doing my own diagnostics, saving a buck, and learning more about this amazing car. But, I wouldn't even know where to begin if it weren't for this forum and the wonderful people involved in the VCA. Thanks everyone for making Viper ownership such a...

    $6.87 solved my overheating problem

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm just glad I didn't have to drive an hour to the nearest Dodge dealer and pay him $150 labor to sell me an overpriced $7 relay! JonB is right on the money - there are 4 identical relays in my '02 RT/10 in the same place (Power Distribution Center under the...

    $6.87 solved my overheating problem

    Okay, it’s no miracle solution, but I just wanted to post my experience for the other novices out there. My 2002 RT/10 all of the sudden started overheating during a “spirited” low-speed drive through the hills: low speed/airflow and high revs. The overflow tank started puking fluid (not too...

    Easiest emblem change?

    Got a question for those that have changed the color of their side and bumber emblems (Dodge, Viper RT/10, etc): What's the easiest, cheapest, longest lasting way to make my emblems black on my red RT/10? I've seen the $150 black emblems from RandJ Distributing, but I've heard of them...
