Got mine as a bonus at work. I think they were $280ish.

I work at a shop so I'm just waiting for one of my techs to have time to do it.

Evasive has them for $276.75 with free shipping. They took about a week to get them.

Installed the HeadlightArmor yellow foglight film. Anyone know of a way to bypass the Honda wiring so I can operate the fogs by themselves, no headlights/high or low beam?
Also ordered Swift springs. Can't wait.

It wasn't that. My maintenance minder was at 15% or 20% already. They said they weren't able to verify it because the car salesman who did the paper work with me doesn't work there anymore. Got a free oil change slip from the manager because they put 5w20 oil instead of 0w20

Went on a food run after work... then took a leisurely drive back home.

Actually, between food and home, I wanted to stop by an Autozone for the turn signal bulb since mine was burnt out... but they were closed.

On the way to the Autozone, I drove alongside a white Fit with neon green wheels (on Milwaukee from about the ABT to Golf Rd).

Finally having a nice warm day here so I installed the OEM door sill covers my girl got me for Christmas. Wanted to give it a nice hand wash too but will probably wait until tomorrow for that.

Starting to think the dealer mislabeled my wipers when they gave them to me. The passenger side keeps coming loose, and the hatch wiper was hell to fit into the holders. I made sure the parts lady marked them for me, though.

Hmm...what did I do today?
Checked PSI on my new tires.

Then made numerous unnecessary and unimportant trips with My Fit just to gauge or enjoy my new tires.

I always put the new wiper next to the old one before removing to make sure its the right length.

I thought the driver's side was 28" and the passenger side and rear were 14"...can't be too hard to get right. Are you talking about just the rubber inserts or the whole blade itself?

Just the inserts. I'm going to swap them around tomorrow when it warms up. Plus 6 in the normally cold north tomorrow.

Yeah Bernardi lists two diff part numbers for the passenger side and rear blade inserts. Passenger side is 76632-SMA-004 and rear is 76622-S2X-003 if that helps.

+1 Swifts
Easy install, just make sure you tie up your front suspension as others have noted. Rear is super easy.

Ride height, drop is perfect.

My 09 Fit Sport 5MT just got an 18 month extension... tried to talk SO into a new Avalon Hybrid... she referred me to the bank account records, which showed the damage from the kitchen & master bath redo... will be driving this baby into the ground!

Happy wife - happy life!
