I used weatherstrip foam to surround the coin holder as it was not snug in the squarish cubby.

Was originally considering the center console armrest addition but now I think I'll stick to seat armrest - since my interior is black and the center console option is gray.

That won't reduce the number of artists to pick from .

I really, really wish Honda at least allowed backward scrolling, i.e. B-->A-->Z-->Y etc. Or, the ability to scroll down in step of 10 artists at a time.

i found out last night when i was moving the passenger seat forward, the head rest can tilt/slingshot forward, then return to how it is....

i should of been the other way... if the head rest can lean back, that would make things a LOT more comfortable.

Hey someone wanna find out something interesting for me?

Someone w/ a MT go 40 MPH, hit the cruise, then pull it out of gear w/o turning off the cruise or hitting the clutch. Im pretty sure the Fit is like my Si and will automatically shut off cruise control on its own to prevent it from red lining itself lol.

Why would you force it out of gear like that?

Okay guys...this ones kinda weak, but it caught my attention so what the hell: If you grab the "oh $h!t" handle......once you let it go it slowly descends back in place, as opposed to just bouncing back. (don't ask )

I keep mine in the drivers side cup holder next to the window, I can see if I get an email/page etc....plus if someone calls I can just glance over and see who's calling and decide if I'm available or not... (Blackberry Curve)

The ABS kicks in rather quickly during mild-hard braking. Really sensitive.

if you reprogram the door locks to open all when you shut off the engine.

if a passenger gets ansty and manually unlocks the door before you shut off the engine the auto open all will not work.

If you go out of radio range (e.g. tunnel) the volume automatically turns down so you don't hear the static sound. Then, when reception is good again, it goes back to normal.

Who said anything about forcing it? Just pop it out of gear to see if this works.

Oh man, that's exactly what I want changed. "A" artists/songs to "Z" artists/songs just by rolling it the other way....but to solve this I just roll the dial super fast lol.
