  1. No sound EQ access after swapping screen

    I was one of the first to do this swap. I remember having the same issue.... but my audio is usually coming from my phone via bluetooth or an ipod classic i keep in the center console. Both have equalizers built in, so I didn't/don't worry about it. I suppose if I was using fm or xm, it might be...
  2. Civic Type R - 5 seat conversion

    Oh… yes. There might be. I wanted to be able to sit the kids back there when they’re older as well and not have the center kid sit on a towel, and have her own seatbelt too. This is my 3rd Honda usually have them for 10-12 years, so I was looking a bit long term for the seat swap too
  3. Civic Type R - 5 seat conversion

    Three car seats would definitely fit, but there wouldn’t be a middle seatbelt to hold down/back the middle car seat. My kids are now 5 and (2) 4year olds and this seat conversion is still working well 👍
  4. Civic Type R - 5 seat conversion

    We only had one baby when we bought my R in 2018. Next round we were blessed with twins. Making this modification was way better and cheaper than buying another vehicle. Found some seats at a salvage yard, these yt videos helped a bunch to remove the rear upper/lower seat.
  5. Red pinstripe / fake vent removal on Black FK8

    My car has sat dormant for a few months due to quarantine and needed some TLC. I had looked online for pics of a pinstripe removal on a Black R, w/o too many results, so I thought I’d post what the car looks like along with my eBay vents. After a wash, clay bar, rubbing compound (Remove...
  6. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    Correct @Puma ! It's from a car w/o NAV, not sure exactly which model. To be completely honest, I didn't really notice the lack of a "map" button at the time of purchase on ebay, but the price was right, a bit more than 100dollars, so I jumped at it. I can access the "maps" option through...
  7. Please list what exhaust you have, and your experience with it.

    @tinyman392 not so much as an air filter, stock down pipe and everything else. Was really happy with the engine from the factory, just wanted a little more sound w/o anything to obnoxious. I got exactly that, and the price point was excellent on the DD too. Love driving around with the windows...
  8. Please list what exhaust you have, and your experience with it.

    This is the best I can do for now. Managing 2yo (In the background) and a set of new twins too!
  9. Please list what exhaust you have, and your experience with it.

    Cut and paste write-up from another thread about Greddy DD-R. Dig the exhaust, looks good, sounds better! ——————- I received my exhaust in a couple of weeks ago but just recently got time to install it. All I can say is WOW! I am very pleased with everything about the system. From build...
  10. Greddy DD-R exhaust

    I received my exhaust in a couple of weeks ago but just recently got time to install it. All I can say is WOW! I am very pleased with everything about the system. From build quality, to fitment, and especially to sound. I am running a completely stock 2018 FK8 with no engine mods. The exhaust...
  11. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    I used this thread to guide me through the swap. https://www.civicx.com/threads/swapped-out-the-climate-controls.23252/ I can also confirm that you must hit the "sync" button on the old unit before swapping, if not it will only control the driver side temperature. I installed the first time...
  12. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    I don’t know about that one. Sorry.
  13. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    Here’s a shot of the back label from the ‘19 model just in case anyone needs to cross reference.
  14. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    The display seems just a tad bit smaller, but the sensitivity seems better, I wasn’t expecting that!
  15. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    Thanks. I found the screen (Not the whole infotainment unit) on eBay at a very reasonable price. The seller offered returns, so I figured why not give it a shot ‍♂️
  16. Upgrade to '19 Civic Infotainment possible?

    The volume knob swap worked fine. https://www.civicx.com/threads/adding-volume-and-fan-speed-knobs.44744/
  17. Adding volume and fan speed knobs to ‘18 FK8

    Just swapped out my infotainment screen to that of a ‘19 model, and climate controls to that from a ‘17 model. I know many have chimed in their two cents about this (whether it’s necessary or not), but I just wanted to let others know that the swap does work. Here is a quick video of the new...
  18. Engine knocking with E-brake(!?)

    I was mistaken on the balance shafts. I will try to get video of the noise and post soon.
  19. Engine knocking with E-brake(!?)

    The sound is not the valves and ONLY occurs when then car is at idle AND with either the foot brake or ebrake applied. I have been told (by the dealer many different stories). (1)That it is happening because the brakes are wired to the main engine harness (2) it is being caused by vacuum from...
  20. Engine knocking with E-brake(!?)

    I will get straight to the point. My engine makes an obnoxious rattling noise when applying the ebrake. The noise occurs when applying the foot brake too, it’s a slight tapping noise at idle, but again it gets extremely loud at times, especially with the ebrake. I’ve taken my car into the...
