What did you do to the GD Fit today?
Looks nice! Where did you get them from? ICB Motorspots is out and they're sick of me calling them every week to ask when their next shipment is coming in. HondaFitTuner has them, but I really don't want to pay $200+ for the visors, though I'm familiar with the "you have to pay to play" phrase. I just don't like it.
I spent about twelve hours on my Morimoto Mini D2S projectors today. It really sucked and I have no idea why people actually retrofit stuff for a living. I could never do it. It took 3 hours for the first side, then like 30 minutes for the second side since I knew how to do it. The other hours were filled by fitting, testing, refitting, retesting, unwiring old HIDs, wiring new ballasts and whatnot, a trip to Home Depot for some picture wire because I didn't want to glue the shrouds on and I don't know how to use JB Weld or the like. I had to raise my light alignment because it was pointed like 10 feet in front of my car. I looked like a moron on my test drive because of how little of the road in front of me was illuminated.

I like the Fit because it is small on the outside but big on the inside. U-turns are tighter, parallel parking doesn't need as much room, squeezing between cars in the right lane and the curb to turn right is easier and you can put all sorts of stuff in it too! I think there is a thread floating around somewhere like "What can fit in your Fit?" I just can't remember where it is.
Finished up my valve adjustment. Easy to do. Intake valves were all at .010 - .012 and exhausts were .004 - .006 before I adjusted them. I believe that was its only valve adjustment in 130k miles.

GD Key Light
Bought this on evilBay a few months ago, but just now got around to installing it:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/221255582283?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
(They also come in many colors from same seller)
Wired it to the dome light fuse(along with blue led's under dash)
This fits perfectly on the flat area around key(glued on with a little epoxy)
Nice interior light when you un-lock the doors, but maybe a little too
bright for some people.

hope it gets back on the road soon!Havnt done anything with my car lately. wanting to order the skunk 2 shift adapter. also thinking of just biting the bullet and ordering 15" wheels instead of 16"s and then new tires to go with it, i will save weight it just wont look as COOL
Also they just ripped out a road on my way to work so now its like 1 straight miles of loose gravel -.- There goes the fender paint....
Poor thing
hope it gets back on the road soon!

The end result should be 10 or more WHP and way better handling.
