I dont do too many mods. I do the easy stuff like intakes and radios.

I tried hooking up my xm radio today. The f'ing direct adapter up wouldnt work. I had the same problem in my old car, even had both the radio and the direct adapter replaced. I guess I'm going to have to buy another FM transmitter kit. The part that attaches to the antenna is still stuck to my old cars back window. (antenna was in the glass)

Is the radio antenna integrated into the back window?

Dude, only someone with a Bugatti Veyron can claim that. That or SRT4 owners.

^ The man found the car, bought it, and likes it so let him be.



brown bomber: You will be doing more modding than you think, it is inevitable especially being here on the forums and seeing everyone's rides!

Cool, another 8 in A2. The numbers keep growing, but I'm not sure how many are on the site.

Congrats!

Congrats! I just got my 04 Sport a couple weeks ago too. I hear ya about the shifting (but I'm getting better by the day). I ride a Yamaha (Star) Warrior and I can shift that thing just fine. I think we need a hand clutch and a foot shifter. LOL

All the GT's in my area are going for $15k. I think I got a good price on a great car.
