  1. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    I got to my door armrests this weekend. I don't know what I was fretting took 15 min tops (with my wifes's help). She did one while I held and I did one while she held. Then I look and think oh the back door armrests don't match now. Oh well. Drove 4.5 hours straight after this and it was very...
  2. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    Yeah its more of a dull red in real life compared to the factory threads. But for the Effort and Cost ($2.33 for the pen) I am happy with the results. Hope it lasts and does not smear. I think I would take the faded color over my skin permanently plastered in the original though. I just could...
  3. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    I used the Tulip Brand Single BulletTip Red. I hoped it would be a little more red but it matches well enough. The excess wipes off leather when wet using a paper towel, I didn't let dry on the leather, just apply liberally and let it sit a few seconds to soak in thread. I followed @ladysi tip...
  4. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    I did my console. Took literally 5 minutes. I had pry tool but didn't really need. I did fabric pen 2 coats over 2 nights. Used Michaels coupon got $0.60 off red pen. Doors are weekend job. White area is my skin, I could never get clean. This mod is what I never knew I wanted, but really...
  5. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    My Shipping status change tonight; expected delivery Tues. I wanted to do this this weekend but now a evening project as I am going out of town next weekend. OEM was responsive to my email, but not really anything they could do. Not their fault technically. I should have gone out and got a...
  6. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    I ordered from oempartsource on the 21st, but apparently they are stuck in some sort of USPS hell. Guess i'll have to endure a little longer. First World Problems.
  7. Fabric to leather armrest and center console swap

    Between this forum and the ranger5g forum, its killing my bank account. I have been spending more on wife's Ranger, and this is exactly what I was looking for (but just didn't know it). I was cleaning out car and was thinking how awful it looks to have my skin DNA permanently embedded in the...
  8. Where do you store your pistol?

    I got the universal mount for the Vaultek Slider. I wanted the ability to easily swap cars. Works ok. Maybe a little wobbly. Maybe a little high but that is where the SI seat has the upper hump that works best for the strap. The civic does not have a lot of leg room either so If I have...
  9. What’s a good dash cam?

    I put a sample vid on the gallery.
  10. What’s a good dash cam?

    I just got the Crosstour CR850. Nice balance of Features and Price ($50 with instant coupon). I replaced a cheap groupon mirror cam. It did not autostart which is apparently a deal breaker that i didn't know i had. So far so good.
  11. Place to carry pistol

    I got this for Father's Day. I was looking in my SI and there was not alot of room on the back seat area to begin with, but this will kill leg space all together. Plus I am not sure how I can reach around the seat that easily. I may try to mount in a different location. I am not usually carrying...
  12. Where do you store your pistol?

    So I got the Vaultek Slider Safe for Father's Day. Anyone mount it in civic or use a safe instead of holster/open mount? Trying to figure out best options.
  13. Where do you store your pistol?

    This topic discussion is a lot different on the Ford Ranger (Wife's truck) forum. I did find this on there though. Not sure where this may fit in a SI though.
  14. What’s your most loved/hated thing about your Si?

    Love: Fun Daily Driver Gas Mileage (my '18 is averaging 39 mpg, better than the 33 mpg of my '14) Hate: Rattles (Fixed all my rattles in A pillar trim so far so actually much happier) Parking Brake '18 Climate controls (Wife turns temp trying to change volume or trying to turn down fan)...
  15. Hello guys would love your advice

    if you are sams or costco, definitely get the true car certificates as backup in your dealings and are automatic. They are worth about $1700 off msrp. They (all dealerships) did not honor the type r certificates. in fact everyone was surprised when i pulled it out, even truecar was surprised no...
  16. USB file order

    I added some files after I had played from usb previously. The new files added are not in alphabetical order, but just at the end. Is there a way short or deleting files, re-reading the epmty drive and re-copying?
  17. Best cell phone mounting location / attachment devices

    https://imgur.com/a/TSL8vUA What I came up with. 2 different mounts combined.
  18. Window Tinting around the Raleigh, NC area?

    Not that this would help you, but i just had mine in Cartersville, GA, Suntamers for $195 for GA legal limit. So far excellent job. Cheaper that I got my 14 done in 2014.
  19. Which floormats did you purchase?

    Our Husky Install
  20. Cell Phone Holder Mount

    https://imgur.com/a/TSL8vUA Here is mine. I usually just use vent clips but the framing around the vents made the one I have wiggle off. So I combined two to make the one I wanted.
