I edited my original post to add a section on "accessories". The carbon fiber trim pieces are there and there's a few new pics at the end of the post too (where I gripe about what we in Canada do NOT get in our '09 Sport )

Did you see the pics yet? By the way, used your procedure to lock/unlock ALL my doors. Great!

Oh, GORGEOUS!!! The meter trim really spiffys it up and then the vent trim balances it. Nice!

What's that antennae on the windshield? Is it for the remote start?

I'm surprised you didn't stumble upon my door unlock procedure until now.

Calls for another +rep for me, eh?

Yup. Being, um, "non-mechanically inclined" I haven't actually seen the remote starter or block heater in my engine compartment. I looked (in a "as long as it works, I don't really care") kind of way but didn't see either.

I swear I'm trying! Really, I am. Keeps saying "spread it around". Whatever. Stupid system.

Thanks, I do really like the complete set of interior trim too. However, I don't really SEE the meter panel trim much since my steering wheel is "in the way"....

Yes, but you know it's there and also you can admire it when you enter/exit the car. You may be pushing me into looking into getting the meter trim yet again.

Do it.... you have a Black Fit.. it will match very well ( no pressure at all to buy if you don`t want it )

Really (not to add to the peer pressure or anything) for the price the trim really does add alot to the look of the car! Add to this the fact that it should be a very easy "do it yourself" project. Kind of a shame to have that gorgeous and sleek Crystal Black exterior and a "blah...what everyone else has (except GR8 Pumpkin)" interior. I'm just spelling it out for you to help in your decision making process of course...

Interesting. Looks like a titanium color. Is this true?

Can you PM me the price for each?

Thanks guys. My credit card could use a few extra pounds.

Going out the door right now. BB later.

Thanks.

Just looking at the accessories for the "Jazz" in the UK and Australia. Um, carbon fibre: rear view mirror, interior door grips, around audio system, side mirrors, under outside door handles .... This could really snowball! Thankfully (for my wallet) I don't have access to those items here in Canada. The only other carbon fiber item I have ready access to (but have to save the $) is the B-pillar trim...

Really? It's listed right on Honda Canada's website so I'd be astonished if you guys in the US don't get the same accessories.

I think what you have now is perfect, Canada Girl. Any more pieces in the interior I think would look gawdy.

And for that B pillar, just close the door by touching the edge of the B pillar or the door metal. That would save you big $.

And congratualations!...you've reached 400 posts. Damn!! I'm lagging behind, hehe.
