Amazon Amazon









NOTE:
I bought the 5 gal jug from walmart for less than $22. I think it was a glitch / price error.

Well, I have had my 2019 Sport CVT about a week and a half now and have done these few things

Kuga 3D floor mats
SuperBright LEDs headlight bulbs
Pilot Sport mini antenna
Weathertech front window reflectors.

To do:
Have to install my HFP rear spoiler, yellow foglight film, iJDMTOYS rear pillar leds, catch can and waiting for my Bisimoto pulse chamber to show up as that is my priority! I need a little noise as it kills me to drive a quiet car!

Also ​​​​​​trying figure out if I want a Takeda intake or something else. This is fun

honestly I didn’t take them out. I just pulled the bulb and wiring from under its easy access. But I’ve pulled the bumper off before to install the red H badge and it wasn’t too bad tbh.

Thanks guys, will give it a go. I tried to pop it out the other day with a butter knife wrapped it tape but was nervous about breaking something on a car with 300 miles on it. I will be a little more confident this time. Hopefully the first snow of the season dissappears quickly

This is the passenger side, which in the GK's at least a bit more tedious since there is WAY LESS space to tinker with....

As soon as i recieve the fog lamp covers and do the drivers side, ill do another slide show...🤪😬


Spectre 90⁰ bend and flexible intake tube

Spectre 90⁰ bend

Drank a beer in the process 😬

Used a 2¾ or 2⅞ hole saw... cant really recall the size

Testing the 90⁰ bend on hole i made

The shinny dot is the 90⁰ bend viewed from the front bumper as I fit tested

Routed the Spectre flexible "intake" duct along the underside plastic cover, will hold them in place with some mighty heavy duty cable tie wraps

Almost, almost finished, as soon as the fog lamp covers arrive....


Fog lamp / \"brake duct cooling intakes" arrived!

Inside look.... those are the connecting rubbers from the flexible intake...

How it looks once installed... in this pic i haven't installed the flexible part...

That's how it looks now....

No useful pictures, but changed the starter today. Once I figured out how to reach the top bolt, ended up being a relatively easy job. Had to remove four sensor wires at the top of the harness in front of the engine, but didn't have to remove the coolant tank or oil filter to get the starter out once the bolts were removed.

Do yourself a favor and get a set of those plastic removal tools. They're great.

Hi guys! I lowered my GK5 with D2 springs and changed the wheels and tires from the stock 16"s. I'm going to change the tires I should've got a taller sidewall.
