  1. What's your SI's name?

    Si of course (not "ess eye" but "sigh"). Short for Simon and Silas. It means to hear, a listener. With a six-speed, listening is an integral part of driving - much more so than an automatic. So the name fits.
  2. LED VS HID

    Love the Mori HIDs. The LEDs are also an improvement over stock and perhaps less expensive. But Dallas' and others who commented about performance in rain made the HIDs the best all-weather choice for me. Just wish I could come up with a solution for the high beams. Any suggestions are welcome.
  3. Honda Care extended warranty

    Just thought I would share my own personal experience. Getting my own dealer's business manager to contact me with an extended warranty was almost like pulling teeth - messages left and never returned. At over 35,600, I was feeling nervous and stopped in yesterday to see him face to face (albeit...
  4. Honda Care extended warranty

    Thanks. That clarified it.
  5. Honda Care extended warranty

    I'm about to purchase an extended Honda Care warranty, but neither Saccucci nor Hyannis offer the 96 month (8 year) warranties I have heard people mention in this thread. They only go to 60 months (5 years) at the same price. Am I missing something, or are the eight-year warranties no longer...
  6. New Android Auto

    It has welcome advantages and yet some frustrating shortfalls. What I have been able to figure out so far is that this runs off the recently included extended SiriusXM subscription to your devices. The timing of that deal from Sirius for all of their subscribers works great with the timing of...
  7. New Android Auto

    One of the things I like about the new interface is easier access to SiriusXM without having to switch to the HOME screen. I used to have to jump out of Android Auto to adjust SiriusXM (skip, rewind, pause, etc) but now I can access SiriusXM on the Android Auto screen (it pulls the SiriusXM app...
  8. Service Records uploaded to owners.honda.com?

    So this is a two part query that really has to do with the online sites for Honda owners. From what I can see, there are two online owner sites - my.honda.com and owners.honda.com. They both seem to offer general information but despite allowing the user to register and spitting back their...
  9. Honda Hack Pro

    I'm talking from memory and could be wrong, but I seem to recall that there is a user option to "hide" it (disable) without doing a factory reset, and input your code again to revive it.
  10. LED VS HID

    Until you're driving in the rain...
  11. LED VS HID

    I love those fleur de lis coasters!
  12. DIY: Fog lights with high beam mod

    I won't wrestle with this while my 18 Si Coupe is in warranty, but suspect I'll be thankful this post is here in another year. Thank you!
  13. 2019 Civic headlights upgrade?

    Actually, I remember that was about what I paid as well. I applied a coupon code to the purchase but cannot remember what it was, although a Google search will likely serve others on finding it (and is how I found it). I don't know if the eBay store was TRS, but if it was a choice between...
  14. 2019 Civic headlights upgrade?

    Interesting. I will look for that on my next night drive (most of my driving is on 2-lane country roads). Is it really important to light up 3 freeways lanes next to you when you are looking straight ahead? I find on the deer-filled country roads here that the Elite HID's are quite adequate for...
  15. 2019 Civic headlights upgrade?

    Dallasjhawk's solution worked perfectly for me. I got the Morimoto Elite system and it set me back only $150: https://www.theretrofitsource.com/h11-morimoto-elite.html Select the following drop down options: Ballast: 35 W Wire Harness: HD Relay Bulbs: H11B (not A!), 5500K (best temp for...
  16. Fog lights "on" with DRL/High Beam

    A friendly bump... I call my fog lights "pothole lights." Here in PA, that extra low illumination really does help to save my rims, and I was hoping someone might have figured a way to keep the fogs on while the high beams are also burning. Any new information on this for a 2018 Si?
  17. LED VS HID

    Dallas' images illustrate my experience with head-mounted LED lighting vs halogen - both in camping and biking. LEDs tends to dump the light more than throw it, and this is especially apparent in precipitation. Dallas is the one in this discussion that has backed up his argument with objective...
  18. LED VS HID

    I stand corrected. Mine was the elite, which I guess is different than the retrofit. Question for Dallas - are you still using the stock hi-beam halogen bulbs? Is there a simple bulb upgrade to better match the color of the 5500K HIDs?
  19. LED VS HID

    I think it is. I was following dallas' posts on this. It's pretty much precisely the way I went with my mine (I posted a link in my previous post to the exact retrofit I bought).
