Podcast Episode #94 - Civic 3rd Brake Light LED Test

This is another follow-up to a question we received on episode #92. The question was if the LED 3rd brake light out of the 8th generation Civic EX Coupe could be installed into a LX/EX 4dr model. We also explored the possibility of swapping the clear lens that is found on the Hybrid model as well. Although we did not complete an install in this episode we did confirm that the harnesses required to power these units are the same. An installation episode will be completed at a later date.

4. Are any of the new Accord wheels going to fit on the 06-08 Civic?

One of our Europe listeners fills us in with OEM Civic Coupe Door Sill Garnish.

5. I'm trying to find options on upgrading my CR-V wheels. I was considering Civic or Element wheels. Will the TPMS sensors from those vehicles work on my CR-V or will my current sensors fit these wheels?
6. Have you heard anything about the new version iPod Music Link? If so, when will it be available?

Honda's stance on confirming retro applications.

7. Are you going to be carrying the Mugen Si shift knob?
8. I'm not happy with the bass output of my CR-V EX-L. I was told since I have leather interior I cannot install the Bass System Kit however I see that your site indicates otherwise. Is this true?
9. I have a 2007 Civic Hybrid and I have found the mats to be of poor quality. I see you have accessory mats available on your site. Are they better quality than the standard mats that come with the car.
10. I wish to upgrade a non-Navi Civic with the audio controls. What are the parts required along with prices?
11. I have a non-Navi Civic and wish to add the Factory Navigation system. What parts are needed, do you install, or can you provide installation instructions?
12. I have a Civic 2dr LX and I noticed you are selling an exhaust finisher. The installation instructions however indicate the part is for a sedan. Can you clarify?
13. I have a 2007 CR-V Navi. Will you have a Bluetooth kit available or will the Accord unit work in the CR-V?
14. Are the driver's side window switches sold separately or as an assembly? I wanted to explore adding an auto-down switch for the passenger side window on a Honda Fit.
15. I wish to purchase the HFP emblem kit. Does the kit come with correct placement instructions?
16. I'm interested in the HFP Brake Kit for the Si. Is it possible to order parts separately? Are there different calipers for the front rotors?
17. I'm from Canada and looking to purchase a Honda Care Warranty. Can I buy one from you and will the warranty be honored in Canada?
18. Why can't I use the 16" HFP wheels on a 2008 Fit? How do the TPMS sensors interfere?
19. Do you have all season mats to cover the pass through areas on the Odyssey?

Show notes for Episode #51

We receive a large amount of questions on a few specific topics so here are a few we are going to put to bed. The topics are;

A. Adding a Honda Navigation system.
B. Buying a Civic Si sedan HFP Suspension Kit.
C. HomeLink used in a variety of applications. Well, this one is almost put to bed. Why? We've created a Hot Rod HomeLink that opens up more possibilities.

Viewer Questions

1. I want to install the XM kit in my Pilot but I don't want to disturb the OEM look. What items can you see from inside the vehicle?
2. When should I get my first oil change done? There seems to be so many different opinions on this.
3. Didn't we already answer this one? Yes we did!
4. I would like to install the Si sedan grille in my EX. Can this be done and what are the prices?
5. I have a 2005 Accord and would like to install the rear lenses from the 2004 model. Can they be swapped? If so what would be the cost?
6. If I purchases accessories from you and have them installed by my dealer, will they be covered under my new car warranty?
7. Is the iPod kit available now for the Odyssey? Has the software been updated for iTunes 7?
8. I'm looking at purchasing a new Accord. Does Honda make a factory remote starter?
9. How easy is it to remove the rear bumper of an Accord and is it difficult to get it properly aligned when reinstalling it?
10. Can you get a HFP muffler for my Si sedan?
11. I am planning on installing a single din aftermarket radio in my Si. What would I need to buy to use the single din OEM dash kit?
12. I would like to install the chrome exhaust finisher from the sedan on my 06 Civic LX coupe. I noticed the diameter of the exhaust pipes are about the same. Will it work?
13. I'm looking at installing the HFP suspension on my Civic Hybrid. From the catalog it appears the suspension systems are the same for the Hybrid and non-Hybrid models. Will the HFP kit work on my car?
14. You said in an earlier episode that the side sill garnish for the Civic was coming in from Australia. Are they for the 2dr or 4dr and did they arrive?
