No worries, another will come. Wish they stop raising the admissions to Disneyland, it's ridiculous how much it's gone up. imo.

Speaking of the D810, take a look at Ugly Hedgehog - Photography Forum Great site.

I got my shark fin antenna yesterday.

That's unfortunate. I always thought changing to the amber rear blinkers was one of the better safety tweaks that were made, because you *know* it's the blinkers, and not some short in the brake lights.

Excuse my ignorance -- what are these spacers? I can't really see how the car looks different and don't know what they do. I saw your closeup shots of it earlier, but still a little flummoxed.

Thanks! Acter.

The visor is well made and install only took 10mins and its very secure.

The LX has a different size wheel (15x??), so it will sit in the wheel well differently. However, a spacer will have the same effect - you'll just need to figure out what thickness will work best for the LX wheel. My guess is that a 25mm will do fine.

I picked up a Key Fob Cover on E-Bay this week. It's originally for the newer Civics/Accords I believe that have the same keyless entry. The only difference being that the Accord Key Fob has a trunk release. Fortunately, the top 3 buttons have the same dimensions as the Fit's top 2 buttons so by simply cutting away the separators the Key Fob Cover will work. Here is a link to the Key Fob Cover on E-Bay - there are similar ones available on Amazon.

Here is a picture of mine .... Just a cheap/quick solution for anyone looking for a cover...

Mine has scratches already. Does the silicone make it harder to insert into or remove from a pocket?

One more additional accessory I figured I would share.... Just got the new Lloyd Floormats... these are the all weather NorthRidge floormats I ordered... I only needed front all weather floormats so picked these up - pretty happy with them. They fit the floor board contours very well and I like the black color as they blend in well with the rest of the floor. The Drivers side does have the slits for the lockdown feature and they do have rubber nubs on the back to keep them in place.

Drivers Side


Sorry about the grey look in the Driver's side picture - flash messed it up - but in the car it looks more like the first picture...

They're similar to the Lloyd's Mats I got, just a different pattern. Weathertech will have their mats with the turned up sides available soon. I'll get them for the winter weather - slush and snow.

Thank you -- that helps a lot. Is it only for the aesthetics, or is there a practical purpose as well?
