I roll with rotas and Mb battles. Rotas are my track wheels, and have held up perfectly. no way i would spend 3k on wheels and then track them...unless i was a pro.............and sponsored. and rich....

There is an antenna amplifier mounted back by the antenna mount, I am guessing this is bad.
Scott....you'll have to show me where that is so I can check it out. I took out that molded styro-foam and didn't see anything that looks like an amp.

I will check with my Warranty....I believe that the radio is covered under it.

The amp sits right behind the antenna location in the trunk. You have to take off the side trim that is above the styro foam on the drivers side. remove the rear center trim, then the right upper side trim in the trunk. Then you can pull a couple of holding plugs and see behind it to were the amp is. That lower center trim piece is supposed to have a plug that is hidden behind the trim of the wheel well arch but mine slide right out without remove any other pieces of trim

The amp is factory piece, are you talking about your extend warranty?

Ok, I'll take a peak up there when I get home tonight.

And yes my extended warranty list the radio as being covered since it is oem.
It is good until March of 2012 or 82k I have 62.5k so I will run out on time first. It has been a good purchase....I have used it several times and I'm sure it has paid for itself thankfully !

i'm sure it is. i get radio, i just dont listen to it, and i've never taken it out.. i have a double din unit, but i'm assuming the antenna amp is still in tact in the car.
