Why would a Type R owner try cutting the R out of the seats? More likely than not, the only difference you'd see is a slight color variation, if at all, due to UV, however, it will be a painstaking process.

BUYER BEWARE: THIS PRODUCT DISABLES THE OEM ALARM This product appears to simply be starter kill with an encryption key (an assumption, as no info as to how the USB key is "securing" the vehicle has been provided), which the vehicle already offers by default via the Immobilizer, while at the...

Escort Max CI 360 and a JL Audio DRC-205 bass knob for VXi amps

The most likely cause is hard water spots if there's hard water in your area - if so vinegar, CLR, Lime Away , etc. will remove. Beyond that, a wheel cleaner or solvent, such as 3M's residue remover (acetone can be used with care, but overdue it and it can take the clear coat off)

I prefer to deal with facts over conjecture/opinions/anecdotal experiences, and if touch car washes were as big of a problem as you and others believe, they'd be a rarity. Folks vote with their feet after all, so touch car washes wouldn't exist if they damaged vehicles to the degree so many in...

Paint wouldn't just flake off from a power washer - the likely reason it did so was poor adherence when it was painted at the factory due to a surface contaminant.

@Ronny2019 Folks in this thread don't appear to be using ceramic coats - my point was touch car washes don't damage a vehicle's finish.

if this was widespread, Honda would issue a TSB - where's the TSB if this is as big of an issue as some claim? Where's the spike in business insurance claims for the damage? It's unfortunate many folks have negative views of touch car washes based on old wives tales and conjecture. Any who...

The wing is held to the side supports with four bolts - it's not coming off. As to a random issue with one car wash, some critical thinking can dispell any hesitance: if this was widespread, Honda would issue a TSB - where's the TSB if this is as big of an issue as some claim? Where's the spike...

I use XKGlow's XKChrome Bluetooth KS-Car-Advance interior accessory lighting strips in all the footwells and under the seats. The mounting of the the flexible light strips takes time if you want them to be near invisible, as I wrapped mine along rear edges so they couldn't be seen unless the...

You don't need an amp with SPDIF in, as you can also use an OEM integration processor, which is the preferred route unless going high-end only. I cover this here. The OEM amp should never be removed, nor should the Audio-Nav unit or the tablet "headunit", which I cover here and here

That would be really inefficient - why would you go to the Under Dash Fuse Box when the component will be under the hood?

It would look a lot cleaner to simply open the Under-Hood [UH] Fuse Box, and either: (UH Fuse Box contains no electronics beyond relays - it's just wires terminated with terminals for fuses) use a spare fuse terminal that's empty to run a 12V switched line to it depin the 12V switched circuit...

All Honda parts can be browsed easily by category on Honda Parts Now, which often also has the cheapest prices on OEM parts.

Please never connect the OEM tablet to WiFi/hotspot or provide it any kind of internet access (this includes HondaHack, which requires connecting to a Chinese site), as doing so has a high likelihood of having the OS exploited since it's running a non-supported 7yr old unpatched OS and 7yr old...

Great idea and thinking outside the box, however it wouldn't be recommended unless Honda verifies in writing doing so [extending harness wires] wouldn't cause signal degradation on the multiple data lines (for the SVGs, right-click schematic graphic → open in new tab) routed through the...

An aftermarket amp can be added (OEM amp remains installed) by using an amp with an SPDIF input (OEM uses an SPDIF digital coax input signal from the Audio-Nav unit [brain that sits behind the tablet]) or by using a JL Audio FiX-86 (if wanting to retain rear fade), FiX-82 (has an SPDIF optical...

Honda uses different keyless access systems on different vehicles and AFAIK, this is the first time it's been "demonstrated" on 10th/11th gen Civics. The Hacker News article implies Honda doesn't use Rolling Codes on the 10th gen Civics when it actually does, per the article by a security...

I wasn't aware of that, thanks =]. It does say something this was only discovered this year and that it only allows locking/unlocking doors and remote starting with an OEM remote start if someone uses the OEM key fob to do so and would only be effective within ~30' of the vehicle (the OEM fob's...
