    Good morning, When installing the powerbase drivers in the front doors, did you have to splice the wires in the lower position or did they use existing plugs?

    21 ST Tires

    I'm looking at either the Michelins, or a cheap option to see if in fact it is the tires, Arroyo Grand Sport A/S UHP All Season. It hurts a lot less if I spend this much and it doesn't fix it vs the Michelins...

    21 ST Tires

    Thanks for the reply. I was able to get the selling dealership to replace one under "warranty" and my "howl" lessened but has not been totally resolved. Here's what the servicing dealer did chasing the noise for three months. Finally after Ford engineers couldn't find anything, the service guys...

    21 ST Tires

    Good morning all, I have a 21 ST riding on Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras with less that 3K miles, one is brand new. They seem terribly noisy going down the road, and my service dept finally determined they "believe" the howling noise I encounter at 72-75 mph my car has displayed since I purchased...

    Speaker upgrade 21 ST

    Thanks for all of the advice. I'll sit on my $$ and continue researching an upgrade. I'd consider doing a new amp, replacing the factory sub and adding the converter and DSP if I could find something that could utilize wiring already there and be semi plug and play.

    Speaker upgrade 21 ST

    Good afternoon all, I'm thinking about doing a speaker upgrade, not going all out just replace factory B&O drivers with either Hertz, Focal, or Morel's. I'm curious, has anyone used any of these and has anyone replaced the factory sub driver with another brand? I've completed the sound...

    Inner door panel

    Hey Unbroken, Back doors piece of cake, only 1 attach point for the windows to the inner door liner. Do the front doors have two separate attaching locations if just the one like the back? thanks

    Inner door panel

    Thanks Unbroken, when i was reading your post about sound deadening i saw the glass taped up in the pics but didn’t think anything about it. Do release ang fall back into place relatively easy?

    Inner door panel

    Hi guys, Anyone know how to remove the inner door panel on my ST? I've removed the outer, turned all of the 1/4 turn fasteners on the inner liner and have felt them release, but the top center of the panel will not come off. I don't want to put too much force on it and break it. Any ideas...
