Finally installed my Ebay Armrest. My friend has a Zeta armrest and wow, we were both surprised that the ebay (hong kong) Fit Arm Rest looked much better than the Zeta Products arm rest. The ebay one was a near-perfect match to stock and the fitment is about as perfect as one could get. More than half the price cheaper too =).

They are nice for the price. I find it could be anchored a bit better. Something to work on this Spring

It is nice that you have a nice arm rest. I still say that you need to put some chrome wheels on your car.

I think the JDM armrest looks much better then that Zeta one, but that's just me. You also can't beat OEM quality and fit.

For around $150 you can. Besides I can't see it when I am driving.

How the hell? And u only had it like a month? And I thought the new Honda were much harder to steal with their chip in the key thing disabling the engine right? At least that's what has my mind at ease with my two Honda, after having two swapped hatchbacks stolen back to back

Is the orange bike with the triple triangle frame a GT.... They were the first to use that design back in the late 80s or early 90s.

I changed my transmission fluid on my at (used new Honda ATF DW-1) Took 3.0 Quarts. And did my front Brake pads only. Got an awesome deal on Hawk pads from PepBoys. Part#HB418F.646 , they were about $22 dollars total. At first I was reluctant but I called Wellman Products Group /
Hawk Performance
World Headquarters and R&D Facility in Ohio and spoke to a rep. He verified they were legit do to a cancelled contract with Pep Boys his best guess was product liquidation. I def snatched up this deal. 1 pair in my area had to drive to L.A. to get them.

I'm down to help a fellow ff'er out, but I dont think I wanna drive to Tracy. I'm in San Jose off the 85 and 87 if you wanna come down here. heres the tools you will need.

Jack, Jack stands, 6mm allen wrench, free rental spring compressor from autozone (refundable $50 deposit) and about 3 hours of spare time.

other than that I have everything else you'll need. I did eibach's on my car and helped Kenmei with his tein's a few weeks ago.

I'm off tues and thurs this week and it should be decent weather, hoping to squeeze in a car wash for my fit
