omg thats a ridiculous price. I'm quite sure you don't need to replace the tracks and a small reseal like that can probably be done by a small shop specialist for a fraction of that price.
I had to fix a leak on the sunroof once and ended up with a whistle noise from the roof due to the glass not being adjusted back correctly. You can adjust the glass itself using a torx screw. When u look at the track for the sunroof the glass attaches with two pieces on the driver and passanger side. Try moving those around and seeing if u get a better close with the glass against the car. Might stop the noise.

I'm looking at installing Sparco Speed seats: http://www.dezod.com/pd_sparco_torin...t.cfm?OID=6016
My question is 1. Can I use this with my stick seatbelts and 2. What bracket do I need to mount them?

Yes, it will work with stock seatbelts.
But it will cause your airbag light to stay on depending on what year your car is.
You would use this bracket.

I figured thats the bracket I'd use. I have an 07 by the way.

If you have seat airbags then it will cause the light to go on.

Thanks yellow I appreciate it.

I thought the same thing, that the tracks are probably fine and it's just the seal. I was thinking of taking it to a smaller shop to see how much they would charge and to get a better look at what exactly needs to be done. Thanks for your help!

so my bro has an aftermarket pioneer headunit in his eclipse. i was fidling with it and found out i could wirelesly connect my ipod and play music through it via bluetooth. i have the stock headunit in my 2010 tC. i was wondering if the oem bluetooth connection would be able to connect to my ipod and play music wirelesly also? or is that soley for the purpose of cell phones?

it's definitely possible with the oem Bluetooth, but the sound quality is pretty bad..

EDIT: At least, it works with both of the iPhones I've tried it with.
Don't want to tell you it works with an iPod, and for some reason it not work. I don't think there's any reason why it wouldn't work.

jeremydoc

hmmmm. well, would i be controling it through the ipod itself? or would it be through the headunit as if i had it plugged in? and how bad is the quality? like, 1 to 10. 10 being best

Ethan

iTrader: (1)

Yep, controlled through the iPod.
Eh.. I'd give it a 4 at max. It's really pretty bad.

jeremydoc

iTrader: (11)

wow. 4 is pretty low. is it static? i cant imagine how bad it can be. is it like that also if i used it for my phone?

yellowxhoodie

iTrader: (16)

why dont you just use the connections that came with the car?
they work great.

jeremydoc

iTrader: (11)

yeah, the do work great. its just that my ipod jack is loose on the inside, so sometimes, it thinks that i've unplugged the aux cable(even though i havnt), which automatically pauses it sometimes. if im using the aux cable, it pretty static since its loose. and if i use the ipod connector and it pauses, i need to unplug my ipod, press play, and plug it back in. so annoying.

so thats why i kinda wanna get the bluetooth, and plus i kinda wanna use my phone with it also.

Ethan

No, not static.. I don't know how to explain it.
Continuity of the music is fine, but it sounds like music that's being played from a phone's loudspeaker. Clarity isn't good, kinda fuzzy.

I'll try to take a video tomorrow comparing music played through USB and Bluetooth.

Ethan

iTrader: (1)

The Bluetooth functions for phone work pretty well. Once again, clarity isn't amazing, but it works fine. Volume has to be turned up/down on the phone, not the radio unit. That's one thing tht bothers me.
Also, you kinda have to speak up if you want the other person to hear you. Especially while accelerating.

jeremydoc

iTrader: (11)

k cool. i'd like that.

Ethan

iTrader: (1)

Alright, here it is. It's less noticeable on these vids, but I think you can get a feel for the difference.
Before getting the bluetooth, I'd try to find somebody local that has it, and listen to it.

I have a quick question... will a 2007 header heat shield fit on a 2005 header? I only ask because they look alot different i just need to make sure

Spicy_McHaggiz

iTrader: (1)

Yes they will. The headers were the same for all 1st Gen tC's.

What do you mean "they look different"?
