It installed easily this morning, even 1 handed. The wiring extends out toward the rear of the Fit, so to pop out the orig lens pull on the front edge of it. No tools needed, and it woks fine.

I ordered part 34265-SFE-003. I have pictures of pkg, uninstalled lens, lens off, lens on...but this is so trivial am not posting unless asked. Or pm me if you want to see them...not very exciting.

This afternoon my son is going to help me install window reflectors that arrived yesterday. I'd try, it seems simple enough, but w/one useful hand I'm afraid I would misalign as I tried to install the rears, that have a tape strip with them.

Also got my new Good (not crushed) Honda Accord low tone horn, will probably install later today. If it isn't loud enough I'll add back orig meep-meep and see if the combo blows fuses...if so I will wire in a relay as well.

Today, in an attempt to make the heat and A/C more effective, I put some fiberglass insulation in my Fit. It cut down on the usable interior space a little bit.





Needless to say, I'm not really talking about the car's heat and air conditioning here...

are those the ebay ones? the chrome makes your door handles stick out much more. i was thinking of buying the same ones and wrapping them in CF, but since my FIT is ASM, i think i can get away with either chrome or cf wrap.

i've known people who had their battery stolen, car tarp and even chump change out of the console. Had a friend who's house got broken into and they not only stole his game system, but his deodorant and after shave. No there is nothing that people won't steal

idk man it seems like it clashes with the black. Personally I think chrome stopped being vip when Audi, Bmw, and Mercedes stopped using chrome on allot of there cars. Flat black trim is whats vip these days.

My friend Rod in his 2005 modified Honda Accord and I went to Williamson for the King Of Coal Car Show. They pulled the Fit for Best Sport Compact. I don't know who picked out these trophies but they were pretty sweet looking.






Meeting up at Office Max for the 72 mile trip to the show.



This is our next to last show before Sippy is retired from showing. We have trophied at every show we have gone to this year with the biggest win being Best Honda at the Morgantown show. I am looking forward to still keeping it looking like a show car but not having to take vacation days to detail and get ready for shows. Takes a lot of work to keep it looking show room ready when it is a 2007 and driven everyday!
