Hopefully you were not injured and the 2020 FIT held up well in the crash that totaled the car!
I wish I could install and balance my own tires--that would be the best!
Yes, it was nice when I was doing that, but for some reason, the Fit tires wouldn't cooperate. After doing it a couple of times, I sold the equipment, rather than damage the wheels. Both cars are set with summer and winter tires, so we won't be buying for a while. Blizzaks are great for snow.
According to Discount Tire apparently not much difference other than the name.
Tires have gotten ridiculously expensive. If you buy them mail-order, you have to pay to have them installed. I used to install my own, but I found the Fit tires very difficult to work with, for some reason, so I sold my tire-changing equipment. I have them installed locally now,
Never changed them myself, had a shop do it @ 80k. Used the oem NGK's both times. I had a thin walled 14mm deep socket, not a spark plug socket, so I had to think how to actually get them out. Ended up using the ignition coil to pull the old ones out. I couldn't use the coils to put the new ones in, so I used a drinking tube from an old hiking backpack I never used, fit over them, tightened it slightly, and pulled the tube off. Tightened them and they haven't shot out the hood yet 👍🏻
Also changed oil. Sprayed crc valve cleaner, I should probably do that every oil change from now on. It idles a lot more smoothly.
Pic of the old spark plugs too, what do you all think?
The lights appear to be from Ledo Lights. The lights install like regular Halogen lights like the Sylvania Silverstars from Autozone. The lights have the typical LED chip on the light itself. There is no fan or extra wiring on these Ledo lights.
The beam pattern is focused down on the road at regular driving. No worries about blinding oncoming cars going the opposite direction.
Regular night time driving lights. Daytime running lights.

Nice! I eventually figured out why so many cars with LED headlights have them turned on during the day. They are also their DRL. I'd be concerned about them wearing out - $$$ - too soon.
