You're not wrong! Once I put some insulating sound deadening foam in the doors that helped a lot as well. My issue is that when I put the ac on full blast I end up freezing out my wife and myself before the back gets cool enough. The tint helps a ton as well. If my wife starts to get cold she...

Without leather to fry you from the rear I don't even mind the lack of cooled seats. With tint on I wouldn't even use it. Now the lack of rear seat venting... Stupid oversight in this decade for the only 4 door manual that can comfortably stuff a rear facing kid seat in back (and yes I'm...

Agreed. Mine is just the shiny black plastic from factory and I avoid touching it to keep it from scratching when it gets dusty. Mine is entirely scratch free and I have zero need to touch it.

Good simple sense. I like it.

Mostly agree, however, he's been really good about keeping them retracted. Occasionally I find paw prints on the hood and roof, and sometimes I'm out in the driveway or cul-de-sac and he's just watching from the roof off the car. No scratches that I've found, but those areas are also PPFd on my...

I've got a cat and a recent mouse problem too. Bro pulls bunnies like it's no biggie, but let's the mice slide... Sweet little asshole. Here he is today with the Easter bunny in his mouth... Really messed with my 5yo who told me he "saw the cat trying to take the skin off and eat the bunny...

Just put the oem one back on first.

Yeah, you could. I'd make the dealer do it personally because it's a Honda issue for the last 10+ years and I believe in voicing problems so they're forced to fix it longer term. You have to pull the airbag, steering wheel, and part of the plastic assembly to get to the cable reel.

I had the creaky/ticking steering wheel. Mine only occurred when the wheel was unwinding after turning right and sometimes left. Dealer fixed it, but I had the oem Alcantara wheel that I installed myself. It was the cable reel that went bad.

True for many states with inspections. In my state a chip or crack in your windshield in line of site automatically fails you. Wipers with cracked rubber too. Chances are in an accident insurance will deny you coverage for removing airbags as well.

My dealer sold me a wheel, tire, and windshield warranty for 600$. So far used it for one nail to get a new tire. I'm hoping I get 2 nails every year at this point 🙃

Things I bet you'd miss, The immediacy of an NA engine. The its is decent on turbo lag, but it's still there. Low end torque - its is decent, but turbo threshold is high so it feels gutless at lower speeds and higher gear unless you keep rpm above 3k. The sound - v8s, no matter how...

It happens man! Always work backwards after changes! Don't make the mistake of making more changes 😅.

Yeah winter time with salt is a nightmare. It sprays poorly, shmears the salt, and takes constant spraying and wiping to maintain tolerable visibility. Even more fun is the tiny washer tank, which in winter is good for one 30 min drive. I carry a set of mf rags, canned ammonia, and a spare...

So, to be clear... You had no issues, You made hardware changes, You now have issues with cam position code... I would say back out the hardware changes one by one and figure out if it's a part or maybe a sensor or wire pulled along the way. Start with the bpv. Cam codes are often thrown...

I find the els system to be fine. Not great or excellent but just fine. I liked the tighter punch in my gti's stock fender system. I'm curious how your setup turns out! The area where the sub is is super generous, as is the flex of the fabric board. If custom boxed you could get enough volume...

Pretty much all manufacturers use Bosch ecu so underneath they're not too different. It's just about what features they wanted to enable and how they coded the registry. It extends beyond the infotainment and ties into the entire canbus as well. Other missing things are a washer fluid sensor and...

To be fair, that wasn't from being a little low... That was flat enough to touch rim.

I like it, and I love that there's purpose to the stitching. Where'd you get this one?

Yeah they stop well from cold and they're modestly tolerant of high heat. That just guarantees they're going to dust a ton unless you move to cc. I like the bright silver wheels, but I also wonder how well they'll hide dust. The stock color should have been called "brake dust grey".
