  1. My BCM is faulty. How easy is it to replace myself?

    So I took my car in to the dealer for a faulty door sensor issue. The car would think the driver door is opening and closing while the engine is on and/while I’m driving. Nothing consistent it just starts happening randomly. Dealer says it’s the bcm and that it needs to be replaced. How easy is...

  6. Are y'all's AC dying as often as mine is?

    I don't drive the car much now due to COVID and being able to work from home. But I do occasionally take her out to run an errand or two.

  7. Is the cargo net supposed to look like this?

    Picked up a cargo net for the R. Part number 08L96-TGG-100. Installed it and laughed because this can't be right: I even turned it 90 degrees but it looks WAY too big. Is this really how it's supposed to be? Did I get the wrong part?

  10. Question about vented hoods

    Hi guys, I'm interested in getting a hood replacement, specifically the TS-style from Seibon. And I was wondering what the risks were with a vented hood when it comes to getting a car wash or rain. I imagine water would get into the engine bay more easily. Should I be concerned about that? For...

  11. Do you guys wave at or gives a thumbs up to other modded civic/type r owners?

    when i first got my car I had a couple of people give me a thumbs up as I drove by or if they saw me at a four-way intersection. Not gonna lie it was a bit of an ego stroke and felt good. So I thought heck why don’t I do that to other type r owners or nicely modded civics. To date I’ve only had...

  13. Is it possible to swap side mirrors on US CTR's?

    So, if my reading comprehension is up to par, based on all the reading I've done on this forum, it seems that the US version of the CTR would be considered the diet coke where as the Canadian CTR is full strength coke. Canada gets the parking assist, turn signal mirrors, blind spot monitoring...

  16. Would you have still gotten your Type R if it had paddle shifters?

    Just curious how others feel about this. I had a friend buy a car recently and was rather excited about getting paddle shifters. I tried driving a car once with those and just did not like it. At. All. And I was thinking if the Type R came with paddles, it probably would have been a deal breaker...

    Hi guys, I just got my Weathertech floor mats and noticed that their branded plate is about the same size as the Type R plate from the carpeted floor mats I'm replacing. So my question is how do I remove the plate from the carpeted floor mats. I was thinking of transferring them to the...
