Re: JL Stereo System Install

Thank you for the information.

The main rattling was inside the console. Not sure if it's loose wires, loose screws, or something else. I did a bass frequency test, and most of the rattle is in the 30-50Hz range, so pretty deep bass.

I ended up getting a sealed down-firing box with a Kicker 12 ...

Re: JL Stereo System Install

@DockRocker

Old thread here, but firstly that is a clean install!

Second, I'm wondering if your JL Audio M6 IB sub caused any rattle in the console, hull, etc.

I've also got a 2008 Cobalt 222, and the only part of my sound system I have to complete is the sub. I'm back and forth between an ...

Re: Red Tiny Dash indicator light replacement.

I just found some of these small lights on Amazon and got them ordered. I guess I wasn't using the right keywords on my initial searches, but I think I got it straightened out now. Guess we'll find out tomorrow :)

Re: Red Tiny Dash indicator light replacement.


Any advice on how to replace the tiny lights below the push switches on the the dash of my 2008 252? One went out this weekend and I can see the wiring is ok, but the bulb looks toast.


@dobone I've got the same issue with two of the lights on 2008 222... I've checked electrical and it all looks ...

Re: Steering Wheel update: Gussi Italia Model 933

Got the new steering wheel installed - looks way better IMO. There are lots of different browns throughout the boat, and I think it plays off that nicely.

Still gonna try and get the self-leveling Cobalt center cap, but for now I've got to get back to flooring removal. As you can see from the ...

Re: Stress Cracks on Swim Platform

Thank you, @billk2632 ! That's most definitely the answer I was hoping to see. I didn't see any cracking on the underside of the swim platform. I dropped some photos of the backside below for reference - it needs to be cleaned, but I didn't see any cracking.

I've never applied gelcoat, but I done ...

Re: Steering Wheel update: Gussi Italia Model 933

@AsLan7 Thanks for the warm welcome! Here's a snapshot of my dash with the current (aged) steering wheel.

Over the holiday, I was actually able to find a used Gussi Italia for $100 shipped (picture below). Should show up later this week. It's not the brushed silver version... it's actually more of ...

Re: Steering Wheel update: Gussi Italia Model 933

Hi, all! I’m also looking to replace the steering wheel on my 2008 Cobalt 222.

I found an Isotta Argo steering wheel (link below) that seems pretty close to the Gussi Italia model 933 y’all are referencing. Anyone have any experience with this manufacturer and/or model?
