    XM or Sirius antenna...how did you install?

    The wireless FM modulator is just that - wireless! Just plug into the cigarette lighter plug and you're set. Tune in on a frequency of your choice (in a range provided). But, I've just bought a new head unit, amp, and speakers, so will be going the ACC in route soon...

    XM or Sirius antenna...how did you install?

    Well, one more thing, I did find out that the adhesive they use on the Roady mount leaves no residue, as I had to re-position the mount to the left of just behind the ashtray, as I (duh) failed to account for the emergency brake being down when driving! (Boy, that was dumb!) Anyway, with a hair...

    XM or Sirius antenna...how did you install?

    I bought an XM Roady yesterday and have been having a ball with it, playing around trying to figure out best mounting, etc. I've learned a few things so thought I'd share (this is my third XM receiver and beginning to learn the ropes, now) The following is a sort of mini-review of the Roady...

    RT/10 Hardtop questions?

    Wow! :ooo: I didn't know that! Any chance you'd get down there and they wouldn't have one for your car? I understand the mounting procedure is different for pre- and post-97? Hate to miss out on Viperdays for lack of a top. Still interested in anyone's ideas about which is best. I'm...

    RT/10 Hardtop questions?

    Please chime in if you can help this decision process. I'm between a number of roof options from a used Mopar to the Vipermania double bubble with fake air scoop. There is a dearth of pix on their website though. So... it would really be great if you could: 1. Post any pix of your Vipermania...

    Smoke after hard stop

    If you mean exhaust smoke, yep, it's your oil taking a dump into the intake under hard deceleration. Guys who track a lot often put a system in that stops this from happening by re-routing that oil to a little tank on the right side of the engine. Keeps your Viper burning gasoline as...

    I'll probably get crucified for this, but I traded the Viper on a new Z06

    Re: I\'ll probably get crucified for this, but I traded the Viper on a new Z My Vette (an 02 coupe) sold yesterday. Saturday I met up with a bunch of the former Vette club at a cruise-in thingie. Most of them wouldn't speak to me. The Viper absolutely stole the show (only one there.) People...

    Cause of Mistress's fire finally discovered - warning to all.

    Re: Cause of Mistress\'s fire finally discovered - warning to all. Exactly - recently acquired car, couldn't figure out why gauge never reads "full" - tried to top off - learned lesson.

    Cause of Mistress's fire finally discovered - warning to all.

    Re: Cause of Mistress\'s fire finally discovered - warning to all. Ran mine over last week too! It's tempting to try to get those last few tenths of a gallon to go in, since my gauge never seems to get all the way to full. Anyway, beware also of running the pump at a trickle, as that will...

    After market wheels vs. factory

    You can have your stock 17 inch forged wheels AND good braking! Forget the Stop Tech front kit that REDUCES braking force to make up for the weak rear calipers and buy Incyte Technology (TomS) 40mm rear caliper upgrade for 600 bucks. There is nothing wrong with the Brembo front calipers - just...

    3M Wax

    Just a note, I've put serious scratches on two of my vehicles with a California water blade! Both had to be professionally buffed out. What happens is that you think the car is totally clean, or a small piece of grit gets blown onto the wet surface somewhere, and it gets picked up by the soft...

    Whats with the Clown Shoe?

    It does bear some resemblance, but funny how insecure Vette guys are the only ones saying it! Let's see, at the track day at VIR yesterday, I counted two SRT-10 Comp. Coupes, at least two GTS's, two RT/10s, three or four Ferraris, a couple of Porsches, various and sundry other fast cars, and...

    Size of Drivers for Gen I/II

    I tried my fit in an SRT at a dealer, and no way! Seat is too narrow for my 6-5 and 250. The RT is a fine fit with the 2 inch seat drop. Could probably fit in the SRT if the seat wasn't so tight. GL

    I'm switching to AMSOil

    Re: I\'m switching to AMSOil Since Mobil One is so cheap (relatively) at Walmart, Sams, etc., and since I don't put that many miles on, it doesn't make much sense to spend more for oil. I use it in everything, generators, lawnmowers,...

    Difference on 2.5" vs 3" exhausts and tubes

    Re: Difference on 2.5\" vs 3\" exhausts and tubes Wow, really wish the "alley" threads would stay in alley. As far as the 3 inch, mine has that size, without forced induction or too many other mods, but I think you may give up a little low end torque in exchange for a more robust "sweet spot" -...
