Default Corsa Indy's Finally Installed!

After several delays in trying to get them installed after receiving the last Thursday, I finally had them installed a couple of hours ago. Granted my excitement in looking foward to getting them installed was significantly muted after Tuesday, but I can say that the first smile I had in days came when I drove my vehicle back to work after the installation. They sound awesome.
In my opinion, if you need a smile/diversion from the horror of Tuesday, get in your car,turn your radio off, go WOT, and enjoy the best car in the USA!

I agree! My installation was completed yesterday morning. Now I just need to get the alignment adjusted. It's slightly off on one side.

The downside to Indy's is your gas milage will drop
because you will be driving around town in gear to
listening to the Indys.

I did notice I used a little more gas on the way back than what I used on the way to the shop! :D

Two years after the install, I still love these Corsa Indies... and AS I read through these posts.. I am laughing because I to enjoy keeping the car in the 2500/3000 rpm range..but cruising in 6th gear... I get 34 MPG.... cant beat that

It seems to me the sound actually improves with increased mileage.
