Not sure if this has been posted but it looks like the Hatchback in the U.K. market has an optional all glass roof...anyone know if this is coming to North America, specifically the USA?

I cannot get my photo to post so here is a link to Instagram - https://instagram.com/p/BS54_YQDfi2/

I'll be more happy if this doesn't get released in Canada because you know what, it looks great and I can admit I'm jealous .

I saw something about it in a video review of the Prestige trim level.

Kind of jealous, but a glass roof makes me want to wear a hat to keep the sun out of my eyes.

Looks cool but I'm not sure I'd be up for the additional cost, weight, and risk factor.

Sport Plus too. I have it on mine. Check my garage.
Unrelated note, do you have the LED fogs? If you do, can you take a pic of the connector that connects to the fog? We have been looking for the connector in one of the comestic's threads talking about the OE LED fog lights.

This is one of those things that the USDM will never have, sadly. If this were to come to the US, I imagine the Civic HB will undoubtedly steal some of Accord's/CRV's sales just for this alone. Remember, the HRV in JDM or Asian markets have a Prestige trim where they have a panoramic roof & LED headlights that we never had.

The OE Fogs are plug and play. My friend has a 2016 ILX A Spec and he got the OE fog accessory (for an insanely high price) and when he did the install you just yank the connector and plug it in the new one.

No it is not. We have an H8 connector and the one as noted in the thread in cosmetic section, it is smaller and not the same plug.

Yes, it has the LED fogs. Sorry, but I'm not planning of taking the light out just for taking a picture. I don't want to take the risc of breaking something.

Damn, wait for the Type R and then snag those up through replacement parts?
