First REAL car 99 GTP

**GTPJOE90** · 05-28-2008

Hi guys i finally have a "real car". I previously had a 90 Bronco II it was a joke... anyways, im very excited that i got a 99 GTP Supercharged 38

every option i believe including sunroof and HUD. I think the only thing its missing is the tint windows "which i want". I have a issue body wise. Can anybody help me? The fuel door hinge or something is broken or not in right because the hinge will bend back to far and flop around??? Check out some quick pics i took today. Also i installed my kenwood speakers in the rear... is it hard to change out the stock delco unit with my kenwood aftermarket unit?? Umm well im a very excited kid and i feel gifted and everybody i know loves my car and it makes me feel good

thanks -Joe PS: leave me feedback and let me know what you guys all think! Thanks

Welcome to GPF!!

Welcome. That is a pretty nice looking car.

For mods you could go with an intake and PCM. I just did those two to my car and they were really easy to install and cost $350 for what I got. They really opened up my car.

The switch inside the car says theyre on though? can both bulbs be gone or could it be a fuse or something? I checked the 35 fuse and it was good.? Well thanks again guys.

I ran the paint code when I got mine a month ago and it came up as "Dark Bronzemist Metalic" As far as the radio goes, you've gotta pull the plastic off that goes around the gauges and all the way down to the bottom of the climate control. I had mine off this weekend, as long as your carefull it's not bad. Then there are 2 screws holding it in. You will have to do some searching, from what I read you have to jump 2 wires to keep the BOSE amp working. If you dont do this you wont get any sound since the wires leave the radio and go to the amp then to the speakers.

Nice choice of car! Get rid of the dealer sticker on the trunk lid

and let the modding begin!

**GTP00Matt** · 05-29-2008

As far as the Fogs go I would start with the bulbs since the switch says there on.

**GTPJOE90** · 05-29-2008

yeah thats what the guy at the dealership told me haha "bronzemist metallic w.e" I take it there not a common color??? Anyways yeah this weekend ill check the fogs with my father. About the stero **** my dads buddy will do it for me "ASE mechanic"

maybe this car has trickout potential after all

**BADAZGTP** · 05-29-2008

Hey, welcome to the site. For your radio, yoou can also get the plug adapters for it so it will be a plug and play. Makes wiring up alot simpler. You should be able to pick up one at a local sound shop. Let us know how things go.

**GTPJOE90** · 05-29-2008

ok man i will thanks! what would i ask for at like a local best buy or C.C. ?? i have the sound system already "was in previous truck" i have a older kenwood amp mono i believe" i have the rear 6x9 kenwood 450W speakers already in the deck lid. I have the 10' kenwood sub with a enclosure. As for the deck i have the Kenwood mp335 deck.

**GTPJOE90** · 05-29-2008

my current deck unit with the equlizer sucks. Duh its cool to change the stuff on the steering wheel and it displays it on the HUD. But i dont like the stock look plus the display does nuts and haywire sometimes and the numbers and symbols flash and change so tis confusing.

Just tell them you want the wiring kit that'll plug your aftermarket deck into your factory radio wiring harness. If they don't know what your talking about, they need to find another job. I'll look and se if I can find some sort of part number for ya.
