    SSG touch up paint

    The top may come down on the door if I'm not careful, however I keep watching that so for me it's not a major issue (as long as I remember to watch it)... My ViperTech told me that if needed, they can probably get me a new top to solve the other issues. This probably happened because the...

    SSG touch up paint

    How about the brown-black touch-up paint for the interior? Yesterday my convertible top hook hit the side of the interior black bar (where the hook locks) and hit the paint so that it flaked off... In 2 years this never happened in my 2006, and now with only 40 miles on the 2008 I alreay have...

    It's yours for only $110,300 !!!!

    Well, the ones that don't catch the "only 4400 made" factual error might as well pay the price.... After all, the price is not by far as wrong as the 4400 figure ;)

    2 PIECE ROTORS

    That depends on the purpose of the question: Do you (=the one that asks the question) believe that the people actually exist: Silly question. Do you believe that these people (or their comments) are made up: Good question. What he really said is: "If these people exist, I would like to...

    what do you think of this plate?

    Yup. HTTP 202. However, it is not an error like HTTP 3xx, 4xx, and 5xx. The 2xx messages means that the request was accepted. (200 is OK, 202 means it's OK but it's alengthy operation that has not been completed yet). HTTP202: The request has been accepted for processing, but the processing...

    what do you think of this plate?

    Yup. That's why I went with V10 for the Viper and V8 for the Mustang... Never had a problem with these tags...

    what do you think of this plate?

    On the other hand, "Goes 202" is more mysterious... Kinda leaves you thinking if it's really that simple (goes 202 mph) or if there is something more to it that you just can't figure out :D

    what do you think of this plate?

    I'm afraid that some people might not get it... Why not simply 202 MPH or is that just me... ;)

    How to remove factory floor mat hook on driver side?

    Thanks! With some good illumination I figured it out. Pull up the hook, and you will see the locking mechanism. Push in a screwdriver to open the snap lock, and voilà! In this case pictures say more than words. Here's a picture of the factory hook and the driver side Lloyd mat (left) and...

    How to remove factory floor mat hook on driver side?

    Title says it all. How is the floor mat hook removed? (Car was ordered with the protection group option and shipped with mats). I'm going to install my Lloyd mats from the 2006 that IMHO look way better than the factory mats... Thanks, Peter

    A tip for cleaning after driving in the Rain

    Yeah, the leaf blower trick works fine. As for scratches, I'm talking about those extremely small scratches that you only see when looking at an angle and the light comes on the car in a specific way. Scratches that you don't see in daylight, but you see at sunset or under fluorecent light in...

    A tip for cleaning after driving in the Rain

    I agree! NO TOWELS on a car that hasn't been througly cleaned. Otherwise you WILL scratch your paint no matter how careful you are. I got a Spotless water filtration system for the purpose of avoiding rain water spots. It is perfect for quickly washing off rain water without having to dry the...

    2008 Convertible Top cosmetic issues - only me? (Pictures)

    Yeah, mine also has the problem that it comes down on the passenger rear quarter panel and & door, but I was fortunate to discover it right away before it did any damage to the paint. From what I've seen so far it's more of an annoyance than a problem. I just need to remember to stand on the...

    2008 Convertible Top cosmetic issues - only me? (Pictures)

    Hello, I just received my 2008. (I upgraded from a viper red 2006 conv. with 10-spoke wheels). Unfortunately the craftsmanship of my convertible top assembly leaves a lot to be desired. My 2006 was "perfect", but my 2008 shows a few cosmetic flaws. It's probably best to let the pictures...

    YET another 08 issue

    I just got my '08 and noticed the same problem. I also noticed that in other aspects the quality of the convertible top assembly has gone down. The fit is nowhere near as good as on my '06, and on the driver side I can clearly see three bolt heads bulging up under the canvas. The top pn my '06...

    Need Help Making Decision on Buying Viper

    Not if you want to DRIVE daily :D To me the SRT-10 roadster is a much better daily driver than my '04 Z06 coupe ever was... Once you go topless there is no way back :cool: However, the Vette probably is better/safer if you want to do something else than driving, like talking on your cell...

    Torque on the 2008 and Intake Manifold

    Isn't 6th gear needed to achieve top speed? I always thought that the relatively low redline RPM is the reason why 6th is geared the way it is... ? Peter

    VCA membership with new Viper only good until the end of the year?

    Hello, When I purchased my 2006 Viper (in May '06) I got a VCA membership that only lasted until the end of 2006 (i.e. ~7 months). Is this right? Should the membership not be good for a 12 full months? (What happens to people that buy their car in October, for instance?) I will get my...

    iPod for 2008 w/ factory Nav&Sirus

    Good deal. I may do just that. BTW, how difficult is it to replace that cable? Is there more to it than removing the center console? (Do I need to remove the seat?) Thanks, Peter

    iPod for 2008 w/ factory Nav&Sirus

    Do you have the part number for the 10 foot cable? Thanks, Peter slaughterj: Tom Sessions is my Viper Tech. He showed me the trick to fix the trunk issue you mentioned in another thread (did it fix your problem)?

    iPod for 2008 w/ factory Nav&Sirus

    Hello, Some say all that's needed is the Mopar integration kit (82209616AC). Other say that an extension cable is needed in addition to the kit for Sirius to work correcty (display song names). I've tried the search, but failed to come up with a definitive answer. Will 82209616AC do the job...
