More deets on the Scosche MagicMount on the lower right? How's the positioning? Adjustability?

 

PSA:





$209 for the one with cf on top, from the same seller

 

They have multiple styles and build options and the price was just quoted off of their actual website. I didn't pay anywhere near that so quoting ebay prices doesn't really matter.

 

I love that Scosche mount down low. Keeps my phone out of the sun. Out of the way and works great. I use the magic mounts in my office and in all of my vehicles. The one pictured is the cig lighter mounted style.

 

That steering wheel with the carbon fiber look is gorgeous.

 

My 2018 sport interior accent are orange. Burnt Orange.

 

Can you post the link to the item.... tried to type it in but no luck on finding the GK one... thanks in advance Evil!!😬

 

It's more red than orange, like the Type R stuff. I have the same interior. Hence why the red stitching on this wheel matches perfectly. I compared the two steering wheels side by side and there is very little difference.

 

That isn't also a Handkrafted brand steering wheel.

 

There is no link because it isn't a Handkrafted brand steering wheel. I just looked myself and there are none like the one I bought on ebay for that price.

 

Here are their current selection of Honda steering wheels. The 3rd gen Fit wheel looks to be now discontinued. But you can try emailing them and special ordering one possibly.
Honda - Models

 

Yes they do have them...



But also there are the economic version of both ($179 full leather and $209 carbon and leather)... on ebay, which might have fitting issues here or there ....but then again... these days ALMOST EVERYTHING is made in China or Taiwan, so it is also possible that both of them are made in the same place.... who knows...

Thanks for the links!!

 

Except there is the real deal aka authentic originals and then there clearly are cheap Ebay copies. Huge difference. smh

Adding in some engine sound and a tad bit of real wheel horsepower. Found it locally for a cheap price.

 

Installed. It brought out some better throttle response, more top end power, and sounds fantastic. Win win.

 

My helper, but I had to put her inside after she made a daring leap over a filled oil drain pan 😳

The left overs, still gotta take them to the local AutoZone. There's a second container as my friend stopped by with his Subaru Crosstrek to help/do his oil change as well.

All done!

Well as all new things, it comes in time. Initially I bought all the gear I needed last weekend and planned on knocking the oil change out then. Unfortunately the last shop that did an oil change tightened the drain bolt plug on way too much, forcing me to take it back for them to loosen it. I nearly stripped the bolt trying to get it off.


Fast forward to the following weekend, my car-knowledgeable friend offered to help me give it another shot (as well as borrow my ramps to do his oil as well). Knocked it out in an hour-ish and managed to not drip too much oil. The Fit already feels much smoother at idle so I think it was definitely due (MM only said 40%, but at nearly 8.5k miles I wanted to get it done).

 

For what it's worth the proper torque rating for the oil drain plug is 29 Ft-Lb.

 

Nice. Did you pickup a new drain bolt just in case?
