    Radio wire update

    That exactly why I did that ... I hardly listen to the radio. BTW , How do you like your Sony CDX GT510 ? How long have you been using it? and do you have a ipod hook to it and how? I've been thinking about one but can't find any reviews on it. Thanks

    Bearing noise???

    I had a simalar faint woaing noise found it to be the timing belt idler pulley bearing. I replaced the pulley and all that stuff when you do a timing belt. The pulley kinda spendy though, when you have the pulley in your hand, make sure to check it first. Good luck!

    Installing Tow Package on a 3rd Gen

    I bought mine online thru Hitchmart , cost somewhere around $130.00 and it comes with a slick tool to fish the bolts thru the frame. I got a 5000lbs receiver, but I did have to drill 2 additional 1/2" holes. As far as the wiring is concerned ,you will need a converter for the stop/ turn lights.

    Most Miles on 1 Tank of gas?
