    2003 Tail lights

    Dealer says the rear tail lights are different than standard Protg models. Anyone verify that? OEM Speed taillights are harder to find used.....

    Damnable Running Lights...

    How do I get the stupid front running light bulbs out? These are the ones on the front corners. I can't seem to pull the pull bulb harness and there is very little room in there.

    New Head Unit Install Question

    Hey, Thanks! It is now up and running. Also, the new head unit puts out less to the subs than the old unit, so it sounded less thumpy. Ran some adjustments and it works well. Must admit that the stock sub box is not so hot. Rattle rattle rattle....Saving that fix for better weather. Thanks again...

    New Head Unit Install Question

    Didn't see your reply before I posted. I have a basic electrical multimeter, so I can check leads. Is the power via sub harness? Dang, wish I had a factory wiring diagram!

    New Head Unit Install Question

    OK, interesting. I deadheaded blue, as the JVC and Crutchfield both showed to use blue/white. Should I reconnect the Bl/W from the HU with the Bl/W on the Crutchfield harness? The Crutch folks call Bl/W Amplifier turn on and JVC calls it other equip or active antenna. Hey, and I would love...

    New Head Unit Install Question

    OK, I got the unit in, but no subs. Crutchfield said to run the blue lead on the JVC unit directly to the bullet connector on harness from the subs, which has 2 rca's and a bullet connector. Anyone confirm this on an 03 Speed?

    I assumed single and double din metal was standard. I soldered up the harness last night, out to install today.

    New Head Unit Install Question

    Can my new head unit just go in where the last came out? The original was stolen... Or do I need to pull out the trim around the vents/AC knobs etc? Crutchfield sent a new black bracket to seat the head unit in. Necessary? The main reason to pull the trim would be to better access the...

    what kinda car did you take your steelies from for a winter tire????

    Use some 15" MX-6 rims. You will have just enough caliper clearance, and the cost of the snow tires drops dramatically at 15" sizing, nor will potholes ding your rims.

    Wiring harness question

    I can see the main harness, but not the rca. Looks like they pulled the stuff past the harness clip, but I can't see the rca jack down there. I may have to get under the dash and look from below. Crap.

    Wiring harness question

    Our stereo got ripped off in the 03 speed. I can't see well enough to tell if there is a harness and an RF connector. Anyone know?

    Illuminas for Protege Speed

    I'm old and my ass already sags! I am just doing the fronts due to the strut leak on one side. The rears tend to last far longer. I will leave the rear struts in place. Tokico notes that the perches for for Illuminas and HP's are the same however. Did Racing Beat just use standard HP's in the...

    Illuminas for Protege Speed

    Only have 60k on the springs, so they should be ok. Any ideas on how the valving/rates on the OEM Speeds compare to illumina? I have illuminas on an IS300 lexus, and the 3 setting on the front is just fine, but 5 would be rather stiff.

    Illuminas for Protege Speed

    I have a 2003 Speed and have a leaky left front strut. I would rather use illuminas in place of the altered MSP Tokico HP's. Can this be done? Also, can struts like these(HP's) be rehabbed?
