Have the 2017 LX hatchback 6MT 66K miles, no issues.
AC works well. I replaced the base headunit with the Kenwood DMX906S, which has worked great and given me wireless Android Auto.
I get 40 MPG in horrible NE winters.
Really no complaints. The headlights are weaker than I would like. I...
Install (a few points I wish someone had told me)
On the internet, you'll see people pop off body panels very effortlessly, but it's not that easy.
The plastic interior panels are tightly fit together. The space between them is essentially non existent and even a pry tool has a hard time.

Bought the
Kenwood Excelon DMX906S,
mainly due to the wireless connectivity.
Install wasn't too bad, main issue me being an amateur installer.
Steering wheel controls don't work, and I'm working with Crutchfield regarding this issue. Reverse camera isn't working, but I haven't hooked up the...
I'd be using AA essentially exclusively. The iDatalink/wallpaper stuff I don't care about. Want to keep the steering wheel controls.
Sony has better boot-time and is a smaller, cheaper unit.
Reliability is always hard to gauge from reviews.
Any opinions about quality, ease of install of these two units into a Honda Civic with the base 5" infotainment unit and MT?
Looking at these as both capacitive touch screens.
Thanks

I thought, "if they just jam this engine and interior into a sedan (and add a 6MT too!), that would be nice".
Where do you drive for fun?
Here in NE USA, very few good driving roads I have found.
Maybe US 91 in VT, Rt 190 MA, 7,44,8 in CT, for stretches, but nothing great for any distance. Too many cars, police, towns, traffic, etc.
Where are the great "driving roads" you know of?
1. Not signaling changing lanes. People wring their hands about safety features in cars-how about that little stick on the steering column? Give it a try. Otherwise, it's just me hoping you don't decide to ram me while driving.
2. Driving in someone's blind-spot. An experienced driver knows not...
