Hi!

Signed up a while ago, just getting around to making my first post now. Ordered my Top Banana as soon as they were taking orders for them and about 6 months later 'Tweety' was born. I've added hood struts, Mopar CAI intake, Mopar STSB, and a Beep Beep horn from the 70's.

I've found the knowledge base helpfull and at some point will be doing some upgrades to my NAV so I can install a backup camera and get rid of the annoying NAV start-up prompt and in-motion restrictions.

And while I'm at it...Merry Christmas!

I'm guessing it's the button for the beep beep Road Runner horn.


What the heck took you soooo long to post???? LOL

That's my voice of the road runner 'Beep Beep' horn button! I love my Charger but one thing I never liked was the horn. You can't just tap it, you have to lean on it. I didn't want to cut any wires or drill any holes so I built this little add-on setup so I could give a friendly little beep. It's actually a genuine Mopar superbird horn...gotta swap that for a repro someday, feel guilty about using it for a non-original purpose.

Lots of Long Islanders..cool! Bodes well for a meet at some point...Thanks for the warm welcome!

Lol, I'm a little slow! I first joined up to see if anyone had the scoop on what color Daytona's were due out next. I wanted a Lime one but at the time I wasn't sure they would ever make it. Once I committed to Top Banana I kinda faded away 'cause I didn't really want to go too crazy with mods on her - after all it's really pretty good right out of the box. I love that car and wouldn't trade it for anything but I might have to pick up a lime one somewhere down the road...

My daily driver is a 92 cutlass (and a 94 vert, and a 96) and it (they) needs more work than my Daytona ever will, so I've spent a lot of time on the W-Body forum. I do have plans of building up a 41 Chrysler convertible using a totaled Mango Daytona (from Cleveland Pick a Part - love those guys!) so I'm back trying to learn a little more about what makes these cars tick and if I can re-arrange it to fit in my '41. No actual progress on this yet, got a few other projects to finish first.

But, now that I'm back and reading up on all I've missed it's kind-of got me thinking about tweaking a few things on my car - like the NAV upgrades and the ESP kill switch.

Oh yeah, I'm in Garden City but I spend an occasional weekend out East in Peconic. And i'm gonna have to meet up with GotMe-N-R/T to check out that junk yard you got out there! They get any LX's or 88-96 cutlass's?
