Yes. if you manually adjust it (fan speed, mode, etc), it'll show the display. But for auto it turns the display off - guess it likes doing its thing without someone staring over its shoulder. My MK7 GTI did the same thing, but I was able to enable the fan speed display with a bluetooth OBD...
Can confirm, I had a '25 A-spec w/ tech loaner and it also showed the additional info on auto.
I just took a look on Dreamshop - the A-spec w/ tech uses a different part number for the climate control panel than the Type S, and it was updated for 2025 (I looked at manual for both - I don't...
If they had a flat version, I'd jump on that. When I had a GTI, I installed power folding mirrors, which came with convex glass on both sides. Tried it for a few days and couldn't get used to it so I swapped the driver side back to the flat glass.
I may consider going down the road of trying to...
That's awesome! The rattle has been driving me crazy for the past year so I might go down this road. Is the JDM mirror any different than the OEM one (flat vs convex, tint, blind spot lights, heating element, etc)?
If the back right tire is already on the wheel and it says "Outside" currently, and you move the wheel to the front left, it will still say "Outside" on the outside. The tire direction does not change relative to the wheel unless you remove the tire from the wheel.
Yes, this is how I always do mine. If the tires are already on the wheels and mounted correctly, the side labeled "Outside" will always face outside no matter which wheel goes where. But if they're off the wheels, that's an extra thing you'll need to pay attention to when mounting them on the...
I agree with you. The seats I don't mind too much since 99% of my driving is on the streets. I'm sure I'll have a different opinion when I eventually take it to the track lol. I sat in the CTR at the auto show and found the seat bolsters there were a bit too narrow for my liking.
The instrument...
Yes. That stuff is most of what differentiates the ITS from the CTR. If you're losing all that just for the gauge cluster, may as well save 10 grand and get a CTR.
I had a MK7 before this as well so I know what you mean. The difference is the GTI handle is on the inside facing the front of the car (straight down when it's open), where the Integra has them facing downward (straight out when it's open). When you curl your fingers up to close the hatch on the...
When you install them, make sure you put them in facing the right way. It's a PITA to get them back out if you put them in the wrong way. Don't ask me how I know 🙃
You should be rotating your tires with every service for more even wear (I usually do it every 5000-10000 miles). I have a second set for winter so I swap them twice a year. My winters are directional so I just swap front to back, but for my summer tires I send the front tires straight back but...
I'm both a little sad and glad that I still don't really see too many ITS in my area. Sad for obvious reasons, and glad because it kind of gives me the feeling of having a rare/unique car. I've had mine for almost a year and a half, and have only seen 5-6 other ITS out in the wild.
I see non...
Sorry, what I meant by "other side" is if you broke a male connector, de-pin the female connector that it plugs into, and replace both connectors with new ones. But either way, sounds like I got your gears turning. Hopefully it works and I'm curious to see the result!
If you don't end up finding an exact match, what you can probably do is de-pin the other side and find a pair of matching male/female 2-pin connectors to use instead. Just need to make sure the size of the pins is the same as the original, as well as the pinning/depinning mechanism.
Interesting. Sure, thread me in. I wonder if anything has changed in the last year since I had mine made. But I'd be curious to see if mine is supposed to be all around and what can be done differently if possible. I'll PM you my email address so you can add me to the emails.
