Has anybody put HID headlights in yet?? There's an old post with someone doing it but I haven't seen anyone recently doing it, they were having problems or issues with them. Seeing what y'all have to say before I drop some $$ on them. Install isn't the issue, just don't want to waste $$ on something that'll give me problems.

Recently added a Mugen replica front grill and Spoon duracon shift knob. Fitment and quality for the grill is decent, but there's some spots that feel kinda rough and flimsy.

How did you secure the light strips? I was thinking some hot glue. Also since its EL wire, does it cause any interference with the audio system?

Grill looks good. Did you have to drop the bumper to install the grill?

Hey all, trying to get some more parts for all! Been trying to coordinate with SAMCO on some radiator hoses for our GKs but am far from Foxy and can't physically verify part numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

"Hi DannyJ7,

Thank you for your email regarding the hoses for the Honda Fit GK5. Unfortunately this is not a kit we export to the U.S so none of our dealers will have this kit in stock and neither are we able to confirm fitment of the kit for the U.S version of the car.

I am able to check the factory numbers of the coolant hoses here at the factory if you can supply them off your hoses? I will also have a distributor contact you that can supply the hoses worldwide for this vehicle.

Thank you,

Guy from SAMCO"

There's 2 clips that I think are inaccessible unless you remove the bumper. Ironically these clips can't be reused for the Mugen replica. It's not too difficult to remove the bumper. This was my 3rd time removing it and took me about 15 minutes.

How's the knob compared to stock? Debating if I should get a spoon knob or go with something heavier

Ryfle, the spoon knob is very light compared to the stock shift knob. However it feels very solid probably due to the set screw.

axlline, the installation instructions are for the honda oem accessories.

Hoping we are done with winter, pulled the belly pan to see how much sand was in there. Had a small pile and some leaves. More pics on my thread.
