Basic Upgrades for Base Model GE8

So I figured i'd like to find out if anyone has upgraded their fit/jazz in any possible way! I have a 2009 Honda Fit base model. But my fit (Sisilia) has a map light (which the base model does not come with) and LED headlights and front markers.
I sourced my map light from a 2012 civic 4 door at a salvage yard. I pulled the headliner off the civic to see how honda wired the map light and did it exact on my fit! Then I ordered panel leds from @m@zon (10pk) for 6 bones and installed the leds. Now these leds work on the dome, the map lights and the cargo area. Then I got Hikari Ultra led headlights 85 bones and phillips 168 leds for 6. The exterior lights took 5 minutes to install.



and then a last thing for now, I went on @m@zon and order a flip key for 2012 CRV and the Civic 3 button key and spent 20$ with free shipping to the locker and Honda service cuts and programs the transponder for 70 total

I dig the transplant to the flip key -- smart.
Miss that from when I had my GTI. My Alfa key is also a flip, but too bulbous compared to some of these flip keys.

The Fit key pokes around too much in my pockets.

Those headlights are shameful.

Next upgrade paid for!

Next upgrade has been paid for a complete set of airbag compliant custom seat covers and is coming from Japan.
