I noticed that my audio system doesn't have a MID setting. Like bass, treble and mid. I have an 07 GT model and was wondering if anyone else had this same issue? I noticed it when I was going through my GF's 05 and hers doesn't even have Bose but she has the mid setting.

took the plunge on the alternator today, this is the place I'm getting it from if anyone is interested, I'll have pics once it's put in, so stoked!

I'm just repainting the black because it was almost gray from the sun and making the gray more chrome and glossing the crap out of everything. If all goes well I should be reassembling it all tomorrow morning.
That's pretty sick, like the fact that the lights aren't murdered out gives it a little bit of balance.

If you're talking about the alts they're actually they're not that bad, I've priced aftermarket upgraded ones before and they ranged around 6-700 bucks, this place is building me one custom powdercoated for a little over half that, not only that but they're ratings are for real, they build a superior product as far as the casing etc. as well, and they're based out of Alabama so I'm helping out a US company to boot. I'm about 98% sure my alt is on the way out anyway since my car likes to run at different voltages at times, sometimes it's happy at 14.2, sometimes 12, maybe 13, it likes to skip around a bit and my theory is the battery is no longer getting consistently charged so I might as well spend some extra and do it right when it comes to replacing it. (car had a lot of draw with the air compressor, stereo, power inverter, ps3 etc., I'm sure the factory one has been hating life for the last 2 years
, but these various voltages were seen at idle with no accessories or anything even running at the time)

Mine is going to be rated at 200 amps, they have youtube vids of a similar one outputting over 225 (doh!). You can check out homedude's channel below, they also make them where you can adjust the voltage externally which is pretty awesome.

Thanks again to Scott for helping out with changing my fan out today... It's amazing to keep my AC running and not have to stress about it in this heat. Before, it ran fine as long as the car was moving but would quickly get the coolant temperature above normal operating temperature. Just to test it out, I sat at idle with the car already fully warmed up for about 5 minutes with the AC on and the temperature needle didn't move at all.
