Yeah yeah. I'm enjoying my silent starts, rattle-free hip hop songs, my electric-only trips around town and my 68mpg trips back and forth to work. (Seriously, don't discount the new Prii. They really are amazing cars.)
In all seriousness though, it's been pretty cool to be a part of this...
Nope. Between the subwoofer rattles, the engine grinding noise, the transmission jerkiness, the leaky door, all the other squeaks and rattles, and Honda's response to it all, I'll never own another Honda.
Less than 30 days later, that very same dealer told me it was turbo making the sound. That was the day I went stark raving mad on them and called American Honda on them.

Well now that you mentioned it....I've been watching these Morimoto LED fog lights. They seem to be a direct swap and they're projector beam instead of reflector. The color temp seems to match well. I dunno, the side markers were bad enough. Don't know if I feel like messing with the bumper...
Here's what worked for me...I took a picture of the inner workings of this stuff and found that even though the assembly was going in far enough, it wasn't clicking because the tab is too "skinny" to make a good connection. So I put a flathead screwdriver in the loop that makes the tab, and...
