how much did your xm sat setup cost? espically the mount-job...??? and what kind of channels / music can you catch???

XM is working great, I love it! I actually installed it myself at work. I've been working for Best Buy for about 3 years and we got a special deal on XM. Installers get the whole system plus the antenna and the first month free. So it was a really good deal for me. I mainly listen the rock/alternative stations like ethel and the boneyard. Liquid metal is also a really good station for those into hardcore/metal. I highly recommend it for anyone who is a music fanatic. I haven't listened to FM in my car since i got it. There is something for everyone to listen to regardless of musical taste. For those of you interested, the Pioneer modulated XM unit is $199 (USD) and the Turk SR-2 antenna is $79 with a $30 rebate. Most places will install it for free because of a special deal XM has going on. So $250 is a good roundabout total. Not sure if they will mount it in the headliner for no extra charge, you will have to ask to have that done. It is a perfect place for it! Thanks for all the compliments.

Black and beautiful.

It may not look as good when it's all shined up but at least my silver tour doesn't have to be washed every 2 days! Looks HOOOOOOOT man good job!

What'd you do to get your floor mats so clean?

Actually, to clean the floor mats, I just hosed them down and put some of that orange glow cleaner and sprayed quite a bit on them and let them sit for about twenty minutes. Then I took a soft brissle (sp?) brush and scrubbed them really good and hosed them off. Let them dry out in the sun for a day and good as new. The only part that looks bad worn spot from my foot. The SVT logo looks like brand new now!!

hey rimmie, what kind of shift knob do you have?

Thats beautiful! What are you guy's tips for cleaning and maintenancing the headlights?

Looks great. Yea the orange glow works wonders I use it on a lot of stuff.

1) The shift knob is in fact a whole short shift kit. It's the B&M Edge shifter. A very high quality shift kit, just gets a little hot in the summer.

2) To keep the headlights clean, take some polishing compound and work it like you would normal car paint. Then you can polish them to a shine with some carnuba wax after you get all the contaminants off them.

3) I am a new orange glow fan. That shiznit works on anything!!
