Ordered parts for the Honda remote start system yesterday. Had it installed today but apparently the wire harness is missing a wire. With it all wired up the remote start works but my passenger side window is inop. Ordering a new harness kit and get it taken care of Monday. The OEM remote start kit isn't too bad when you get the parts at cost

What a baller. J's coilovers are a hefty price tag.

And now I'm on Tein springs.

The moral of the story?

Buying cheap car gives ability to easily afford AWESOME parts.

Buying not quite as cheap car (super expensive for part-time work while full-time student lol) gives ability to save up for months to buy a couple cool parts, only if good deals.

Was working on the car out on the street and a well intentioned stranger said, "What a cool car! It looks like a toy race car".

Nice day in the Northeast, so today I changed both Fits over to winter tires, got a state inspection on one, and installed LED license plate bulbs in the other.
