no need to buy the oem part. if you install it, you can not use air filter kit like prl cobra. its use their place. Also you can buy any kind of universal type oil cooler and install it behind the front bumper. it will be more efficient than oem part. I have oem part but i m going to add small size fan in front of it. Because its not works properly inside in small place

If the cooler is the same I can order the civic installation parts from the uk. The accord cooler is priced much cheaper.

Would it be poss
Nope thats European civics.
but aren’t the cvt warmers pretty much functioning like a trans cooler

I wonder if it’s possible just to run a diy kit off the stock cvt warmer plate or if it’ll explode...

Reviving an old thread to say it can be done with the ETL kit. You have to slightly modify a bracket (extend, and bend) + a bit of the bumper has to be trimmed off and removal of the driver's side fog light. Which is kinda nice since you get extra air flowing to the CAI and oil cooler.

It can definitely be mounted somewhere more logical to avoid this, but the potential benefits far outweigh snipping material off the bumper than can't be seen :)

Is the fog light removed permanently or just for installation purposes?

could you just run new lines off the two OEM ports of the CVT warmer to an oil cooler and loop the two lines coming off the head?
