JDM Hazard Button
 
Who has the JDM hazard button installed on their GE8? It seems like a super simple mod that shouldn't have any issues but I just wanted to make sure that the angle of the bracket isn't off or anything goofy like that since it's from a RHD car.

I've bought RHD parts for my Civic before that were supposed to fit LHD and really didn't so I thought I'd ask before ordering. I did a quick search but only found GD stuff.

Make sure it's OEM and it should fit fine. I used to have one and had no fitment issues.

cgpEJ6 03-12-2012 01:02 PM

Yeah I figured it would be fine, just putting it out there. I know sometimes RHD stuff "kinda" fits and people use it anyways even though it's not perfect. I'm placing an order with AJ Racing and their shipping is expensive so I'm trying to bundle, otherwise I wouldn't bother, ha.

I just placed the order. I also picked one up for my brother's Si along with the CSX engine start button.

i have one real easy just take off the radio and unscrew two screws replace and rescrew.

Cool, thanks. Unfortunately I just got a voice mail from AJ Racing saying that they are out of stock but the rest of my order will ship. We'll see how long they say it will take, might just cancel it. Last time I tried to order from them the shipping quote got messed up and I had to cancel that order too…

Where in IL are you?

Gotcha, I've had work done at Suja 1 before (think they moved now though). I'm in Algonquin, more northwest.

So where is a good place to order the JDM hazard button? I had one ordered but AJ Racing made a mess of the transaction and won't honor their own list price so I had to cancel the order.

ebay here's one ---> JDM 07+ HONDA FIT JAZZ RED HAZARD SWITCH GE6 GE7 GE8 | eBay there's dozen's of them on there. Just make sure to get the one for the GE's (small round clear red) not the GD's (rectangular solid red).

cgpEJ6 03-16-2012 04:28 PM

Ha, I actually just bought one from the same seller.

BlueBoogers 03-16-2012 04:54 PM

Same. Do these light up when the headlights are on?

FitStir 03-16-2012 04:56 PM

^^^ yup... They also dim too.

Thanks, I've been wanting to take some interior pictures so I'll post some when it's done.

I got the button and put it in. It came pretty quickly from the eBay seller and was brand new in original packaging. I would definitely recommend ordering one from that seller above over AJ Racing. It was less expensive and much less of a hassle.

It's pretty easy, kind of a pain to get the radio out but overall not it's not too bad. You just have to be careful not to mar the plastic and patient so you don't break any clips. I have to admit that it's kind of a silly thing to change, it doesn't really look better than the USDM button, just different. The glow when it's illuminated looks cool, just not sure that the hazard button is something that should be emphasized, haha. Anyways, my car is filthy right now but I'm going to clean it out on my lunch break and I'll get a couple pictures.

Just got my switch today for my 2012 Sport.:hyper: I ordered mine off of E-Bay from a guy in Taiwan. He ships fast and the parts are the real deal at fair prices. Could you go into a little more detail on how to change it out? :vtec:
