    It's not too bad here. I grew up in AZ, it'll be cool to have someone else around. What brings you here?

    Anyone know a good realtor for the durham/raleigh area? Going to start looking for a house to lease for 6-12 months before I buy another house.

    raleigh/durham is a pretty huge area. . . narrow your field down and i might be able to help you.

    edit: my bad. didn't see your other post. . . . so no, don't know anything about realtors in durham. Gtechoma might be able to help.

    Thats the problem, we have no real clue where we are looking to locate to. More then likely will find a small place with a short lease so we can look when I move out there. Looks like her start date is july 1st and I will be out there when ever my house in Phoenix sells. I would asume we would be looking for a 20-40 minute radius from Duke. We drive alot here in Phoenix and are fine with a 30 minute drive either way. Anyone know of any construction related openings? Have been estimating and a project engineer for several years now in the HVAC industry out here.

    Does anyone have experience with Auto Acoustics in Burlington? I think that I want to have a Viper alarm installed by them.

    No. Much better off going to Ear Candy, also in Burlington.

    When I was young and dumb (i.e. highschool), I had them install audio setups in two different vehicles. Very satisfied both times.

    At least back then (it's been a while) the AA installs I saw in friends vehicles were not terribly impressive.

    These days I'd just do it myself.

    any of you locals ever tackled this?

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/technical-chat/198658-bad-door-lock-actuators.html#post4459316

    both my rear doors starting to go bad on me. to unlock them with the fob or the button inside takes about 3 or 4 hits nowadays. seems like this is my issue.

    want to try it sometime this summer and the supervision of someone who's done it before and doesn't love breaking every small plastic thing on these trucks like i tend to would be appreciated.

    My driver front one has shit the bed. Interestingly, this door panel was replaced under warranty a couple years back, and the speaker on that side has intermittent connection problems too. Wondering if they just half-assed it back together quickly because it was warranty work.

    Letcha know what I find.
