I've heard of people replacing them with both 6x9's as well as 5x7's. From what people say on here, they're really not decent subs. I'm hoping to replace them with the Alpine's I mentioned in my earlier post.

N8, I got the SPR-57LP 5x7's. The window went all the way down and up, you could just hear it scraping against the magnet when it hit the bottom. At the time Crutchfield was running a special on them, so I got them for $70. They sounded really good since they don't require much wattage and ran...

I have the Kappas in my doors. While they sounded decent being powered by the HU, I ended up buying an aftermarket HU mainly to plug my IPOD into. Now they sound better, but I got bored and ended up buying an Audiobahn amp for them which I'm getting installed soon. I also bought a pair of Alpine...

Thanks for the update, and I'm glad everything went well. Looks like I found a new shop for my LS. Thanks again.

I'm 31, live just South of Boston where it's supposed to snow 12" this weekend. I'm a supervisor at a financial company (institutional trading). The money is ok, and all I do all day is surf the internet basically and yell every once in a while. I'm married almost 7 years with two boys 10 & 4...

Good luck, and if you could post when you get your car back I'd appreciate it. The Canton dealership "replaced" something in my power steering, and now it makes a humming noise when I turn. I brought it back, and they said there was nothing wrong with it. I need to find somewhere else.

So are you happy with Sentry South? I live in Randolph and have been bringing my LS to the Lincoln Dealership in Canton (can't remember the name). I haven't had good luck there, so I'm looking to find somewhere else to bring my car to.

Thanks for the info Todd.

Thanks Clown. My foot isn't too too bad. So I'm thinking it's probably not that. Hopefully it's just a simple fix.

The digital computer in my LS states I'm getting 11.8 miles to the gallon, and the way I'm going through gas I believe it. The car seems to be running fine, so I don't know what might be causing it. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm putting it in the shop in two weeks to get the brakes done as...

Are using clay bars really that good? I've seen them, but I've never really looked into them too much. How do they work?

A couple of months ago, I had a power steering fluid leak that was leaking pretty badly, so I took it to the dealership to have it fixed. They replaced the unit. Since I've gotten it back every time I make a turn, there's a squealing/humming noise coming from the front end. I brought it back...

I have a pair of Alpine Type R's in my front doors, and two pairs of Infiniti Kappas one in the rear doors and one going to be put in the rear deck. I also just bought a four channel Audiobahn amp that I'm going to use to power the Kappas, while leaving the Apline's powered off the radio. My...

I checked twice last night and once this morning, and there was no damage at all. Most I did was wear out the brake pads a little more from slamming on the brakes. The more I talk to people about it, the luckier I feel.

I saw it coming out of the woods out of the corner of my eye, and I hit the brakes. I think I caught it in mid-jump, because it slid right up on the hood. It scared the life out of me when I saw it. It was the first time I've ever hit anything, so I was freaked out afterwards. Guess I really am...
