Hello,

Just wanted to say hello to everybody here on the forum. I just purchased an '04 Monte Carlo LS with 3.4L. Pretty ho-hum staight line performance, but I bought the car for it's ....price, comfort and gas mileage.

I sold my '02 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad cab with 360 V8, and was lucky enough to have a mother in law who wanted to trade her MC in on a Toyota Avalon.

Anyhow, I gave her what I sold the truck for, so now it's mine! Did I mention that my Monte only has 28,000 miles?

I have already ordered a set of Weather Tech window visors and will probably get a U bend delete and a K & N drop in filter some time in the future.

Oh, I almost forgot, does anyone know how to remove the stock radio? Would like to use my Sirius direct FM connector.

Thanks.

Oh, will get the car washed soon and will post photos. It is white with the 5 spoke style wheels, 16 inch type.

Thanks for the welcome. I was set to take some photos, however I drove through a rainstorm last night, so will get some up later on.

Just purchased a STB from ZZperformance. Was thinking about the trailing arms as well, but maybe someone will unload one here on the classifieds in the future. The front end just feels a little "floaty" over bumpy slow turns and let's hope the STB can tighten up that sensation.

Again, thanks for the welcome.
