Ah so. Making a harness? I didn't really do a full on harness, just mounted the relay and cut and ran all the wires and zip tied them up neatly.

How about posting a DIY thread to benefit the rest of the FF community? Pictures would be nice.

Installed JDM Hazard Switch and JDM Powerfolding Mirror Switch. Man that was scary trying to remove the gauge cluster cover. Damn switch works though. Taking a short break and then maybe I'll start putting in the mirrors.

Tinting

Got my windows tinted yesterday. 35% on sides and back and 70% on the windshield.

Also, put my window visors on a few weeks ago. Ride is looking good!

Those Supertones look nice! I'm thinking about doing away with the Accord horn and replacing them with Supertones. I feel like I'm the only one who can hear the Accord horn. The stock meep meep even seems louder.

Just installed a Progress RSB and T1R 50S muffler. Kiddo is napping upstairs and I'm technically on duty, so no driving impressions yet. Super easy install on both, did the whole thing in about 45 min.

I recommend them, they're very effective and look great when you catch a glimpse behind the grill.

Looks like a nice, sturdy rack, but good lord, that hideous on the car!

Ha ha. Yep, it aint pretty but a necessity for me as my wife and I bike daily. You'll love my motorcycle trailer with 3 dirt bikes being pulled by the Fit even more I suppose. Nice to get those dirty Mountain Bikes out of the car! My Fit is even more versatile than ever.

The Fit is certainly a utilitarian concept. Glad you are actually using it to its potential!

Here's another thing that happened to my Fit today One of the hazards of living in the country with lots of dirty/gravel roads.
