This is my X, and she is PERFECT for the beach!! This site has helped me SOOOOOOO much since I joined and got my X in 2000. It was a pleasure to become elite!! ;)

What does it take to remove the factory running boards? Is it easy enough to remove them and re-install them? I would like to be able to take them off for a trip to Paragon, and put them back on later. The only reason I want to put them back on is for my daughters, they need the boards to...

Interesting find here. One day, I was showing a friend the type of RCA connectors that I used for my sub. Some doors were open, the key was not in the ignition. When I pulled the RCA's out of the jacks on my sub box, the stock alarm sounded! Is this normal?

I've been through 3 passenger side headlight bulbs in the past few months. (9007). The last one I put in only lasted two days! And they haven't just gone out, they actually BLOW APART!!! So where should I start looking? I have fairly new lamp harnesses, and a new multi-function (turn signal)...

Can anyone tell me what can cause a computer to restart on its own? My desktop sometimes runs all day, and many times without any programs actually running. Quite often, it will do an IMMEDIATE shutdown, without the normal shutdown sequence, and then it restarts on it own! Quick specs...

I know what some may have thought from the title, but I'm refering to the Limited Slip Diff! Today, it has been a terrential downpour here, I was pulling away at a stop light and was accelerating somewhat aggressively, about 4-5k rpms. I was in 2wd and I heard a CLUNK from what sounded like...

Does anyone know what size T-bit I need to remove the seat belt mount in order to remove the rear panel? I plan on bypassing the amp using this harness http://www.circuitcity.com/detail.jsp?c=1&b=g&u=c&catoid=-11701&qp=0&oid=10329&m=1

Nothing fancy, but I LOVE it so far. Still need to get matching carpet and finish the amp rack. Gonna install 2 fans, one on each side of the amp, one blowing on the amp and the other off, and frame out the sides and cover with 1/4" plexiglass. The box is a hair over 1cu ft and made with 3/4...

Not for an X, but my wife's car. 1995 Mazda 626 4cyl 2.0L New fuel filter,air filter,oil filter, new rotor & wires, fairly new cap & plugs. Once the engine is warm and the rpm's drop to idle, which is about 800rpm, the engine runs VERY rough and misses, the rpm's jump around +/- 100 rpm, and...

I have decide on the Perfect 12 and a JBL amp, but would like to know which setup would be better, not worried about price difference. Setup option 1: DVC Infinity Perfect 12.1D (350Wrms) powered by a JBL 300.1 amp, connected @ 2 ohms, rated to 300watts rms. Setup option 2: Infinity...

Looking to add a 12 to my system. I'm thinking of getting either a Kappa Perfect or the ED ek12. I listen to 75% rock/alternative, 12.5% techno, and 12.5% hip-hop/r&b. I plan on building a sealed box. Anyone have any opinions on the Perfect vs. the eK12? Haven't set my mind on the amp yet...

Would anyone recommend this MTX system? I'm obviously not looking for a competition setup, but something that will thump enough to sound good. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-pLByrr9xU5q/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?s=0&c=10&g=51000&I=700THUNDER&o=p&a=0&cc=01&avf=N

I have been doing the CEL shuffle lately and in a lot of threads I've seen people complain that AutoZone only reads OBD II codes....THIS IS BULL!!! I just had mine read yesterday, I have a 95 and I have both I & II ports, but the port for I is the only one that seems to be reading. The guy...

I think I may have solved yet another CEL problem. After changing plugs, wires, and O2 sensors, still had CEL, AutoZone read codes and got nothing. When they plugge the computer in, the CEL went away, and yes I did disconnect my battery after changing all that stuff. So I got home from...
