Well she drove the car a couple times. Now she has thing she wants changed...
1. CD player skips on bumps and cant connect iPod.
Pull Sony radio from lease return and swap into XFire.
2. Not happy with rear view mirror (interior)
Buy Gentex Auto Dim mirror off eBay
3. Auto Shift **** not comfortable.
Back to eBay for a MOMO or something.

My ideas are TVT's MB cover / CAI with K&N and a Magnaflow exhaust

 

I found a MOMO **** I like.... we'll see what she says... Since it her car...

 

Nice ****! Good luck

 

SACETORNC -
Welcome to the forum! Already making changes to the new car I see. Lots of great ideas and great folks here on the forum. Check us out!

P.S. Hope that the wife likes the **** that you got her!

 

Some guys will do anything to make their wives happy.(?)


roadster with a stick

 

I made my wife happy and got an SRT out of it.

Bought a Camry for myself. Wife kept taking / driving it. I asked her why she kept taking MY car, she said, "It's my car, get your own car."
That's when the SRT came into my life. I think I'm happier than she is!

 

I wish that would work for me but Cathy wants a "Crossfire of her own."

She doesn't like mine 'cause it's a stick.

I still love her anyway. After all, I'm not perfect either.

So I'm staying with the Flowers and coffee and "sure honey, whatever you want,' approach.

And, trust me, she is milking it.

roadster with a stick

 

Will this **** work on an auto car? After taking the OEM **** off and looking around at what other have installed, I think this one might be too short to seat on the actaul chrome metal shifter rod...

 

Send it to me and I'll tell you.......it looks too much like a microphone.
I did see one on the forum that looked like it was the same shape and size only all chromed and swiss cheese holes all over it. I liked it quite a bit.

Well I got the official word that she doesn't like that one... She picked out this one... And I saw another member had it installed so i know it should fit...

 

MB all the way

 

Yeah, that's mine and now I have been forever labeled as a "ricer".

 

Do you have a picture of it installed in your car?
Edit: Nevermind - I looked in your gallery... It looks a little tall on the stick...

 

Yes, it does sit tall and I have never been able to get it on tight. It spins around although it's never come off. I really like this one http://chrome-tec.de/catalog/product...products_id=89 but I'm just not willing to pay the shipping from Germany so I have learned to live with the "golfball" until I can find a suitable replacement.

 

Manny, have you tried som blue loctite to stop it from spinning around? That MB red/silver shifter it just for girls. j/k so dont go mental.



MikeR

 

LOL...No problem. If you see my signature it clearly states that I don't let anyone rent space in my head so I can definitely take some razzing. I thought the one from Chrome-Tec would match my steering wheel cover but I've also had my eye on this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CROVDI which I actually think is a better fit but like I said I've gotten used to the golf ball for now. I haven't really bothered with putting Loctite since I plan on changing it out.

 

That one is certainly better and would go well with your (cough, cough) RED car.

Dig deep into your wallet and go to this website.

You should find something there. I did

Peace

WOW!! I love the wood/chrome ones on there. I may have to buy myself a Christmas present.


MikeR

 

Mine was an "early" Xmas gift to myself.
I figured it was the only interior mod I would ever do so I went all out.
If you care to look, there is a picture or two in my gallery.

Peace
Paul
