What did you do to your Type R today?

Trey said:

From the 2016 Civic LX. Used on eBay $32-$40 shipped. The EX and EX-L use the same as the Type-R.

Not sure if they changed it up for 2018 or something but the EX I believe uses a single zone climate control so the right side knob is a on/off/fan speed, while the EX-T, EX-L and up uses the dual zone climate control so it has the sync knob on the right side which is the same as the Type R.


it's nice to be able to at least change the fan speed without having to go into settings on the infotainment screen.

Ahh yes, looks like the type-r but I see the right dial now, and the heated mirrors for the rear defrost. Wish we had heated mirrors! At the least I can still change ac settings while in reverse.

custom red painted "H" caps for the nsx wheels are done...properly lined up with valve stems for the ocd ppl.

exact fit hub rings came. they're polycarbonate size 64.1mm id to 70.1mm od and fit perfectly.

personalized palindrome plate and brushed stainless steel bits with my serial (engine plaque, keyring, door sills with real cf inserts, and dead pedal) also came.

cusco front tower strut bar.

custom front and rear (with actual license plate) from the amazing @dusty kemp , many thanks!

haha yeah. I really do like the base climate control but i really want to keep the black trim instead of plastic. The fan speed knob will have to do for now lol.

Love those scuff plates, where are they from?
also the ocd in me tells me those centre caps are upside down lol. i believe the bottom of the 'H' points towards the valve stem.
