Got my radio/navi buttons installed last week, and then got my Parrot Asteroid Smart installed! Also replaced the map light bulbs with LEDs, meant to do the other lights too but I must've left the other LEDs at work, sadface.

Also replaced the cabin air filter.





And lastly...



Can't wait to start playing with this, but I *have* to wait for the screen protector to come in (can already see fingerprints on the bloody thing!).

That's bad ass! What all was required to make it work? Where did you get the climate control from?

Thanks, took a lot of researching and work to get it done. In order to avoid paying the ridiculous prices at lings, I had to look at European websites for used parts/junkyards.

The controls I got from a jazz hybrid in Sweden, the sensors and wire harnesses I got from a RHD jazz at UK junkyard. Servo motors and the new blower box I got from lings since I couldn't find it elsewhere.

@j1nNju1c3 a DIY is in the works, I'll try to make it as detailed as possible. I think EV one is based off this one, but it's designed to work with the electric heating system rather than our more traditional type.

Steelies

Threw some Honda center caps on the steelies and shined them up.

Given that the title is "What did you do to your GE Fit today?"...

I hope you mean that you drove to the bank...and not that you violated your car.

...moving on...

Got out early from work today, so got a bit of stuff done with/to the car.

First off...



Mugen pedals, and the OEM leather shift knob. I like the blue stitching on it, goes better with Kimiko than red.



OEM visors. I liked the look of these better than the Mugen, and they're like 1/4 of the price.

And for a little visual flair...



...shoshinsha mark...and...



Unfortunately the FF frame only has top bolts, which is kinda lame for a hatch, so it rattles every time you close the door. So, I put it up front after removing all the dealer junk.

Mugen pedals look good, larger than my Sport pedals
