Alright Fit Freakers, this is what you wanted!

I talked to one of my friends that works at a local honda dealership and hes been talking to the koni guys about making koni yellows in fit applications. All he needs us to do is show some type of interest, so im posting this here. Hopefully, if all goes as planned and we get enough people in on this, we can get some of that yellow adjustable goodness.

Yes I'm VERY interested. I think I finally blew an OEM shock or two on my drivers side. I've been running Eibach springs for a good while now and I knew this might happen one day. So if we could get some Koni Yellows for the Fit it would help me out greatly. Just turning on the on ramp doesn't feel safe right now

*Sigh* Stop tempting me! I'm supposed to save money after buying my springs...gonna wear out my tires b4 I put them on so I can get new tires with alignment after summer. Ack! I should consider buying just so I can do everything at once. Somewhere along the line I'm going to end up buying new shocks anyways so YES TO KONI YELLOWS!

I just hope it'll fit into my budget. BOOOooooo TO INFLATION!

Trill, all you had to do is search for "Koni" as a search query.
It was tried numerous times before. Many of us called and/or emailed Koni directly and if they ever responded it was with "under consideration". Koni even listed Fit on their application chart with "TBA" instead of part numbers. IMO, they won't even bother with current model being phased out and a new one due to hit the showrooms in the fall. If a new generation Fit damper can be used on out model, we might see Koni actually make a set for it. New Fit model will be on the market for at least 5 years with some face lifts. Maybe even longer. That is a lot of cars and Koni will no doubt consider it a lot more seriously.
