    Non Body Color Badging

    I have seen many Vipers with Chrome badging that I thought looked good. I checked Parts Rack and they want $169/per badge. 3 badges (1 each side and 1 in the back) That is over the top cost to me. Are there other places to buy chrome badging?? Secondly, is the badging from the...

    Thanks Sal. If a moderator moves this to the illustrated upgrades forum and since I am non VCA member, then I think I could no longer access my own post.:crazy2:

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    Here is the fix: 1. White tube separted from body 2. Epoxy tube back into body 3. Run aluminum strap though body hole, epoxy and clamp to white tube. A bit of belt in suspenders but it should work.

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    Getting the regulator out of the door can be a feat without knowing the trick to do it. I called the local Viper Tech who works nights and he looked it up and told me how to do it. Nice guy! See Picture of Door: 1. Rotate rear track to the bottom of the door while rotating the front track...

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    Thanks Jon. So do the guide rails have to come out too? Or do you just need to loosen the rails to disconnect the regulator asm before snaking out the hole.

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    Thanks Sal. First let me say I actually did find the retainer clip late last night and got the glass. But had I not found it your description was helpful. I am in the process of removing the regulator. (BTW I only have evenings to work on the car) I have taken the 3 nuts off that hold the...

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    You guys are genius'. Yes the white tube is dislodged. How have you all repaired? Also, to remove the regulator I have to remove the glass. Using the manual it is pretty straight forward except for one retainer. According to the manual; Lower the glass almost all the way down and remove...

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    You know the more I think about this...and my 03 only has 5K miles...how many times does one have to replace this window mechanism. This is ridiculous. I read the quality ratings of manufacturers and Chrysler still has never got it together...and this is living proof.

    Thanks Jon. Soon as I have time to dig into this project and see what is going on...I may be back in contact. Right now I am over a week from doing the any Viper work.

    Is there a repair procedure? I have searched this forum and did not find a thread that addresses.

    $1200 or you kidding? How could a door regular cost that much.

    THE LAST VIPER

    I'd qualify it as the ugliest production Viper ever. I have seen some really ugly custom paint. Like this one on the forums. I have always classified the soft gold to tan metallics as "metallic dirt" for those that never want or do wash a car. Gold is not an in your face color and the...

    Window Lift Making Cracking Sound

    Have a 03 with only 5k miles, that the window just started making a loud cracking sound when it reaches full up or full down position. It still works but is sounds awful....soon to break? I have taken off the trim panel to diagnose but still not sure what is going on. It seems to be coming...

    another window regulator thread

    Once inside the dooor, I tried to diagnose what that cracking or load pop that was at the end of the full up or full down position. The noise is coming from the forward slide mechanism. The window moves up and down fine, so far, the but pop at the end of cycle sound like something is broke...

    another window regulator thread

    Just last night my LH window made a loud crack (as if something smacks the glass)when I hit the full up or full down position. Pretty disappointing for a vehicle with only 5K miles. Anyway I was going to dig into it. I have the manual and it gave me step by step where to remove the...

    Rear Hatch Strut Attachment Fit - Funny Story

    Here is an interesting story about a guy that took his 09 Viper in for service to fix the rear hatch strut. Funny and good to know as well if this happens to you.

    What price?

    Nice. Why sell? The only reason I can think is if you plan to buy another Viper.

    Stone Chipping Behind Wheels

    Not crazy about those carbon fiber pieces. We use to call them Kentucky Air Brakes. (I'm from KY too) A buddy of mine, has some experience with the clear film and it was difficult to notice installed. I may still give this a try. I shoot pics and post at completion.

    Stone Chipping Behind Wheels

    Are you talking about a 3M clear film that is used to cover the paint? I like that idea. Innocuous yet functional. Were did you buy?

    unique paint job

    I have enjoyed this bumped....I would have never seen otherwise. Just because something is unique does not make it pretty. Looks like something a Ricer would do.
