Just remove 1 screw from the fender well and get rid of that resonator. Then you can push the tabs in on the black housing. Then remove the connector and two screws on the fog light.

I found this 4" to 3" coupler at home depot which perfectly mated the weapon r hose to the fog light housing.
IATs are about 25* cooler with it while driving vs. Sitting still so it's working!
iat's at 25 degrees cooler?! wow!!!

any more pics to share with us, of how it looks under the hood .... all nice and routed?

I've found myself in a similar situation several times. In order to get a job done, I needed something expensive. Usually, I would spend the money on the tool, and it would be less expensive than paying someone to do the job, and I'd have to tool in case I needed it again or someone else needed it.

Ask around at mechanics you know, and see what they do about that problem. They could have a cheaper solution, or they might lend/rent it to you. Lots of auto parts stores have free loaner tools.

I find the little storage cubby between the shfter and armrest to be useless. It's just too small and shallow. Does anyone know if there's a part that fits to change it in to a cupholder or something else? Perhaps just making it bigger.

Not that I've seen. And I've tried those storage sleeves that are supposed to fit between the console and the seats. Nothing fits as the seats are way too close to the console. The only thing I've thought about was attaching a thin barrier/plate to the left of the brake lever along the console to make the whole area under the brake lever a storage area.

I put the remote for my XM radio there.

ok i kinda really like this. Two questions:
  1. Can we see what it looks like with the driving lights on, brake lights on, and turn signals?
  2. Where can I buy?!

Yeah, I'm not really into modz for looks. And yet and still, you have totally transformed the look of the car. Matches perfectly for your paint scheme. It looks verrry nice, well done! Maybe some clear lights up front if you haven't already done so to get that monochrome look across the board? Cheers!

Kiwi Jazz RS Sport GK5

finally decided to upgrade and get me a new 2019 GK5 Jazz
Good timing on the delivery I had my ruckus pinched sunday morning and my gen9 civic just isn't fun anymore.
A good friend runs the dealership its from, as a result im getting a bunch of stuff thrown at it at the moment
My goal is handling mostly we have some awesome windy roads through some remote parts of the countryside where handling is key and we have a few tracks for "play days"

The Kiwi RS Sport has a mugen body kit fitted from factory
mugen 17x7 wheels fitted with Potenza RE003
Mugen Sport coilover suspension pack (on a plane from japan)-20mm
there will be a tune some and there will be plenty more to come
exhaust will be coming it takes forever to get things down her so i might just make one



Delivery Day

At this point, I am thinking 1 of 5 outcomes:
-Maybe I did not re tighten my negative on the battery, hard enough?
-Maybe I did something wrong while re installing the wheel?
-Maybe the 5 yr old oem battery itself is ready to die?
-Maybe the shop that did my bumper/radiator/ac condenser screwed something up back there, and I am getting these 3 lights as a result?
-Maybe something unrelated went wrong, and the wheel/battery has nothing to do with it?








@evilchargerfan BTW I had this same issue, but without any changes to the car, so I wouldn't necessarily attribute it to any of your recent work. I believe that there may be an intermittent issue with the power steering or some related sensors that is causing it to fault on those systems.

TRM 16" wheels, carbon fiber wrapped rear garnish, and aftermarket spoiler

Decided to wrap the back garnish in 3M DiNoc CF vinyl:



I also put on an aftermarket wing from this seller: advancetuning
https://www.ebay.com/itm/272993812745
Fits 15-18 Honda Fit RS Style Roof Spoiler Painted #NH731P Crystal Black
For $85 I thought it was a good value.

To mount the wing:
  • I opted to use the two threaded holes with a nut you attach from the inside of the tailgate frame (these are a direct fit).
  • For additional security, I used foam two-sided 3M tape on the top mounting surfaces and the wing is solid.
  • I detached the rear wiper fluid squirter at the right angle that would normally connect through.
  • The third brake light I tapped into the existing female plug at the tailgate

And I put on some new summer wheels. TireRack Motorsports 16x7 +40 with Continental ContiSport ExtremeContact DW

The car looks awesome - the Mugen front spoiler gives the car a completely different, and much more aggressive look.

Welcome to the forums!

How long did it take you to install the rear spoiler? Been debating to get it.
