yes we have pulled it out 2 or 3 times since we first put the radio in. i checked all the wiring and everything to make sure there were no loose wires... would one of those voltage equalizers (or watever theyr called..) do it?

As in pull it out, leave it out, and check to see if the fuse still blows. Windows work, etc..
If it´s not blowing, then you have something wrong with the harness. I´d bet big money at this point that something you wired is wrong, causing this problem.

If you´re referring to voltage regulator, no. That is for the amp turn-on lines, 5v regulator using the 12v input to give the turn-on the proper 5v turn-on to avoid the ¨thump¨. Using the 12v turn on for it won´t cause direct damage, but it can damage the speakers themselves in the long term. I mentioned this in the previous post, except using a resistor to bring it down to 5v, instead of a regulator.

Point me to this ¨guide¨ you used. Unless you´re used to wiring units from 10+ year old cars, most recent ones have can-bus and other issues you have to work around when wiring an after-market unit in.

Rear bumper



Which front one you like best?
If I had to pick one, which I wouldn't, it would be the 2nd. I, and many other people, would prefer the front bumper from the GT/CS. And the rear bumper is just a straight no. It looks kinda ricey, and would be out of place.

Btw, amazon really isn't the best, or any, place to buy performance upgrades *should have learned that one already*.

The second one, the first and last are gross imo. I haven't necessarily heard good things about Duraflex btw
