  2. Hello, The lights for my air condition control are dead and dealer shop is going to charge me more than $100 for doing that. The light itself costs only $14. Does anyone know how to remove the dash without any scratches?
  3. Hello I am nevada is300 owner and I just bought cobra xrs 9330 for $79 at circuit city few days ago. Has anyone used this product? It seems it is not catching cops as I expected. sometimes, it does not even beep when i passes the cop who is giving ticket to other vehicle. I am not a racer or agressive driver but just want to get away from cop's trap. Is this product really not worth it or just cops are not shooting the radar? Does anyone own beltronic v940 or v955 and how are they? I don't want to waste too much money on this product. recomendation, plz Thank you.
  4. Thank you guys for advices. I was worried that I have to spend some money for nothing.... Thanks again
  5. it is 56000 mile now. I was searching about this yesterday i found out that the alignment resluts were not different at all except front toe. and i found out that toe is adjustable by tie rod. 1.However, the mechanic told me that he could not move it at all because it was bent. (then how could he change toe degrees at the front toe?!) 2.Also, left rear toe is out of spec, and i asked why it did not change after test. what he said was, he could not change it before changing the front parts. Isn't each wheel measured seperately? 3.And I suggested changing it to new coilovers if i have to spend money anyway and he said it will be so complicated... bla... bla... (If i need new struts.... what is wrong with to get new coilovers?!) 4.last, i found out the price of parts on e-bay. struts are $85 each for front and tie rods are $25 each. They estimated it would cost $450 for struts and $230 for tir rods...... If I bring parts, they estimates 3 labor hour. $80/hour = $240 so, struts $450 + tie rods $230 = $680 total if i let them do it. $680- labor hour $240 = $440 for parts they charge me.....?! if i buy parts it will cost roughly $220 -$300...... $220-$300 : $440 ? I do not really believe them... are my theories correct or not?
  6. hi guys. Today i had flat tire and i found out that i had bad alignment. so i got 4 brand new Yokohama S.drive 225/45-17 tires at discount tire and went to alignment shop. After the test, they told me that i have to change the front struts and tie rods. the test result was before left /front / right -1.0 camber -1.2 3.8 caster 4.6 0.93 toe -0.61 rear -1.0 camber -1.2 0.23 toe 0.03 after left /front/ right -0.9 camber -1.2 4.0 caster 4.5 0.13 toe 0.08 rear -1.0 camber -1.2 0.24 toe 0.04 However, i have never felt that the car was driving towards left or right before or after the test. 1.Do i really have to change the struts and tie rods? 2.Are they covered in extended warrenty? 3.If i have to spend money anyway, shall i just get tein coilovers? need some advice.... Thank you!

  8. Hello I am 2002 is 300 owner. I have changed air intake to AEM and exhaust to HKS hi-power. After a month I changed intake, warning sign showed up. so i disconnected battery and it was fine later. Then a while after changing exhaust, it showed up again. Is it ok to just keep reseting ECU? because mechanics charging $85 for just scanning it. And I am planning to lower my ride. Is it ok to change just the springs or do I have to change whole suspension for is 300? What kinds of brands do you guys suggest for spring or suspension? need some advice... Thank you~
