Hi Simon, Exactly what I've been doing for the past 3 years and I've never been stuck. I v'e just put Kuhmo IZen KW27 s on mine after a recommendation from some friends in Germany - they're V rated as well so you don't have to drive like a nun when it's dry. Obviously we've had no snow yet but...

I have about 4 small bags of silica in each of the housings behind the actual reflectors - just behind the round rubber seal where the connector is. Although I still get misty headlights when it's damp, they clear very fast now; it used to take days for them to clear before. Honda's clips didn't...

Just been through all of this with the dealer in Newcastle, he phoned Honda UK and they turned me down flat. My 54 plate is too far out of warrantee they said. £600 or misty headlights/silica bags! Same goes for the clutch problem!

Ok, had a good look at the sensors today. It's the genuine Honda item, but there seems to be a mile of unused cable bunched up under the plastic moulding at the back of the car. A bit of a messy job as nothing is even cable tied in place. When I looked closely at the control unit I noticed...

Just bought my 54 plate Accord Exec tourer on Saturday. 3 problems already and it's only Monday! When it rained on the weekend, both my headlights misted up badly (20%) with drops of condensation inside the lens. The clutch pedal has an annoying squeak and notchy feel when the engine is at full...
