Please share your opinion of the coplus lights and how the install went! I've wanted these lights for so long but wanted someone's opinion of them first.

Also curious about the wiring...

Hey Andre, as I mentioned in the PM they are plug and play and no modifications are needed to install them on our USDM Fits.
about the night light I still have to drive on total darkness to properly asses them.
For now I am happy with them and I love their look.

They have cheap crappy capacitors that would need to be changed.


Hey Bass,


THanks for the info but I am not removing the bumper now to revise it. I hope it will last. if not I am screwed

Big Improvement

I suffer from dropsey Vjaramillo and therefore go with the all-weather mats, but I must say, these look great! Make you want to drive bare foot?

Did the first oil change last night. Just at 9900 miles. Hardest part was finding all the little clips and things to reattach the engine splash guard after I took it off. Other than that I really like how easy it is to get to the filter. The one on my F150 is awful to try and get to.

I reused the clips on the splash guard, but I can definitely see why you'd want to have a supply of new ones on hand--anyone have a link to a store with the correct clips?

Honda dealer is your best bet. Part #91514-TG1-T01, for almost $1.00 each. I had to order them and go back the next day.

Happy 2nd Anniversary Loki-chan! aka fun with Picasa

Took advantage of a somewhat more temperate morning today. 2 years, 28,000 miles, and no problems.

Do you have the same problem? I see your picture are in an underground parking in low lighting conditions.

I contacted the seller but I got no replay yet from them

Rear Bumper Tail Lights

I always hated those triangle grill things on the rear bumper. Chose to add those rear tail lights on the lower bumper. Hopefully it will help me from getting rear ended again.

eBay, $48.00 shipped from Thailand. Got here in about a week. Some fitment issue's. Grills are a hair to big and the wire harness in the rear prevents them from sitting flush. Used a small hole saw for the wire harness issue and some double sided tape to help keep them in place. Used T-Taps to tap into the tail light harness.

I'm assuming your talking about the Bumper Guard?

Got it from Yahoo Japan Auctions. If I recall, about $60.00 shipped.

Ready to Haul...or Tow...

Torklift EcoHitch hidden hitch install under bumper cover.

MaxxHaul Dual Hitch Extender

U-haul Anti-Rattle Locking Pin (Not shown)

What do you think guys?

Can the EarthDreams Engine pull a 10,000 pound camper with this setup?

Or am I dreaming??

Hell to the capital N capital O.

You're definitely dreaming. You should check the owner's manual about towing.
