    Do I need a steering stabilizer?

    So, I replaced the upper and lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rods and sway bar linkage on both sides about 7 months or so ago. Now it feels like every time I hit a bump or pothole my expy wants to drive itself off the road or into oncoming traffic. It also seems to want to drift left or...

    Hole plugs?

    Anyone know what the empty hole plugs are called for stuff that didn't come equipped? I've got a hole in the bottom front of the center console under the armrest. Looks like maybe for a light. I was thinking about running my Kenwood's USB to it but I'd like to get a snap in hole plug and make it...

    Rear DVD questions

    Hey all, I'm getting ready to swap out the factory HU with a Kenwood DDX340BT and I want to keep the rear dvd but I'm wanting to go about it a bit differently than others have. The DVD won't eject on the factory unit so I'd like to just use the rca aux inputs. In the source menu it has aux in...
