    Speaker sizes for 14 speaker system…

    Certainly not ideal but I have had zero leaks or problems in 3 years. Good luck on the upgrade. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Door and door pillar. Primed and painted the holes before assembly with a grommet on both ends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Speaker sizes for 14 speaker system…

    Many don’t upgrade rears, especially for competition. My personal preference was a fuller sound for my old ears. I messed around with the rear plug for a few hours and gave up. Ran another small hose and grommet along the original. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Light battery appear

    Test Put a volt meter on the battery terminals after you start it. If charging, the voltage will jump to around 13.3 to 14. If it still reads 12v after starting, charging system may have a problem. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Speaker sizes for 14 speaker system…

    It’s been a few years but they pop out and give little room for hands. Spray silicone helps them slide a little better if they are super tight. That was the toughest part of my install. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    High pitch humming noise when driving.

    Does the noise change or stop when you let off the gas or hit the brakes? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    How are you checking your engine oil?

    Being a half a quart low or even a full shouldn’t damage anything unless you are doing a bunch of launches. Most of my vehicles were a qt between the full and low dots on the dipstick. If it burned another quart in those 5k miles then you might have a problem. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Rear window heating elements, warranty denied, touch up kit?

    I have used one many moons ago. It worked for a long time before I sold it. I’m sure the kits have improved in 30 years[emoji23] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    CLOSED: DashCam and OBD2 Adapter?

    I have a double external battery. My Blackvue records 40+ hours in parking mode but recording with ignition off. I just leave it running all the time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Alibaba Wheels

    Too many unknowns imo. Having seen a wheel blow up at speed, I’m not willing to risk my life to save a few bucks. They may be made in the same factory as the oem wheels with the same quality control and specs, or they may be made with lousy aluminum and poor quality control. Sent from my iPad...

    NGK Plug change, and don't go to Ford to have it done.

    I still do all my own work but i totally understand that. Not to mention as i get older i realize my time is worth something as well. But i still do brake jobs for my daughters that are over 30[emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Depends on dealer. But thats how many shops make money. Any good mechanic can find short cuts. I know thats how the collision business works. Insurance pays book rate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Book might say to remove the coolant lines but it is definitely not necessary. You just have to unbolt the assembly and move it a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
