New Fit owner..

Picked up a TW Fit about a week and a half ago. So far Im loving it.




I really want to lower it but Im trying to find a camber kit. I did a search and came up with using the SI for the front but is there no solution for the rear? I don't want to change my tires every 6 months because of camber wear.
Also I purchased the OEM Honda Keyeless Entry System and all I got was a key I did a search and came up with How to program a Honda keyless entry remote | eHow.com however that has not worked. Anyone know a solution or will I have to go to Honda to have them program it?
Thanks!

Welcome to Fitfreak...

Go ahead and mail me your headlights, okay? Thanks!
lol

I'm not sure on the remote--hopefully someone can help you out or maybe go back to the dealer and ask them what's up.

I love mine too! I got the Sport model & when it arrived at my job, it had pin stripes on it. It arrived from a different dealership.

That's true for the immobilizer chip.

But you can program the transmitter (lock/unlock buttons) yourself.

Yup I should've read the instructions more carefully. Works like a charm now!

Ok so the remote entry worked. I went down to the key shop and had them cut the key. Fits perfectly. However when I try to start it up they green key light on the instrument panel lights up So Im going to the Honda dealership to have them program the key.

Welcome to Fit Freak! Did your GE8 come with those wheels? For the front, you can use camber bolts. I have the ones from SPC. You won't wear out your tires within 6 months if you drop. Just rotate your tires and you'll be fine.

Nice to see another base owner.. I love mine!

I was going to have the dealer program my key, but after being jerked around on appointments I decided to just use it as a fob, got to dremel the shank off. One of these days I'll order another key and have it done.. but my patience for dealers is shot for now.
