I had the same problem, probably replaced at least 5 Fog lights until my mechanic told me about LaminX in 2004, had it on the fogs on my 06, 10, 13, 16 & 2019 Civics, haven't lost a fog light since. Just finished putting it on my new CRV, I prefer the yellow tint, both for appearance and the yellow light seems to penetrate fog better. Clear or tinted, it's like a $15 insurance policy for your fogs.
do they have clear for the fogs. Mybissue with yellow is I've been stopped twice, years ago, for having yellow fog lights on in NON inclimate weather. Cop said if it wasn't raining or foggy I can't have yellow lights on. No ticket but cop was kinda douchey about it. I want to upgrade to LED head light bulbs so I may upgrade to 2020 factory LED fogs

WELL, now the passenger side flog lense is broken. What the hell is Honda using for fog light lenses for them to break so easily? Car only has 8000 miles on it.

Fortunately the yellow fogs don't seem to be an issue here in Central Pennsylvania, and yes, they make several tints as well as clear. BTY, the LED fogs are entirely worth it.

Honda using soy based wires, insulation tubes, plastics to attract and give free meals to rodents. Say goodbye to your wires and hello to an expensive repair bill that is not covered by warranty.

<> Is anyone else having the wire issues with the 2020 / 2021 models? <>

1/3 of the time, no rattles, 1/3 a bit of rattles but no biggie, 1/3 noticeable rattles even on a very smooth road and I want to pull my fucking hair out. I even have a rattle from the front grille when I close the front doors. My honda dealer had tried to fix this, but twice so far a week no rattles, but then a week after that fucking same rattle comes back. May let them do it one more time, but if it comes back, I have no choice but leave it alone.

When it rains, you can’t see shit with the back up cam.
Is there any car with a backup camera where this isn’t an issue? If there are what do they do to eliminate the problem? I was thinking a mod to blow compressed air onto the lens when backing up could solve the problem but don’t know how feasible that would be.

Revisiting this thread. As much as I hate the crap paint on my car and the unsightly large panel gaps, my car is a f***ing rattle trap. It's all up in the headliner area. I've tried sound insulation, foam, velcro, graphite spray, you name it. It never goes away. In the cold weather it's constant, good or bad roads, doesn't matter. I HAVE TO play music just to not want to scream.

I know the '18's and up have additional sound deadening. Maybe they are better but these rattles make my car seem really poorly built. DRIVES ME CRAZY.

And then we have people saying their car is solid as a rock and rattle free. Honda must have extremely poor quality control these days. I owned only Hondas for 20 years and then tried Hyundai and Kia before coming back to Honda for this Civic X. I had no problems with the Hyundai or Kia and might be going back to the Korean cars after this.

Had my eye on the K5 turbo...

The only problem I have with my 14' CRZ is the seats are super squeaky. There was a door handle screw cover that rattled, but it was easy to find and fix. Definitely feels like a drop in quality on my objectively nicer car.

I wish Honda would come out with a new version of the CRZ with some real power. I'd buy one.
