    Genuine Euro R colour coded bonnet & grill trim

    If I were you, because you've ordered the parts through your local dealership I'd let them do it because the bonnet chrome trim can be a swine to get off because the nuts holding it on seize themselves to the studs and have a tendancy to snap off. I've got a matt black bonnet strip on mine with...

    door open light not on

    The micu is the multiplex control unit. The fuseboard is part of it and has additional fuses on it but it's apparently a bit of a sod to fit because they can be temperamental when fitting hence why I haven't fitted mine yet aha. Sorry mate. There's a thread somewhere about how to fit them, it...

    smooth numberplate front bumper

    it's less about the lip kit but more about where the OEM number plate goes. With the standard bumper, behind the mount there are 2 square holes roughly an inch or so square and I was wondering if people just fiberglassed them over or if it was an aftermarket bumper. But thanks for your reply...

    door open light not on

    I didn't unfortunately, like you, mine isn't the switch, I think I may have messed up my micu (not sure if that's the correct bit but the bit that's on the back of fuse box) I've bought an exact replacement but not got around to fitting it yet

    smooth numberplate front bumper

    Brilliant, cheers for that :) might end up putting a bit of fibreglass matt over the back and filling the holes (because I'm cheap haha)

    smooth numberplate front bumper

    that was my thought but I thought I'd be better asking the gurus of accords haha. I think it must have an effect on cooling.

    smooth numberplate front bumper

    Hi folks, can anybody tell me where to get a bumper like this one is it part a standard part or has the owner filled the holes in the bumper where the number plate mounts to? Because mine has square cutouts behind the number plate. Any help would be appreciated. The image was taken by...

    abs, vsa and (!) came on

    Hi folks, I was driving back from work tonight and the abs, vsa and (!) came on on the dashboard, it still drives the same and the brakes are working as they should... What could this be? Admittedly the rear brake pads are about ready for renewal. But what do you think? Or could you point me...

    Do bonnet struts exist for this model?

    I've got some fitted on mine, I bought these from hong Kong and they fit well although you have to take the plastic trims up the side of the engine bay, I've seen people cut away some of the plastic but I didn't. This is the listing I bought from http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311003403928

    Fitting hands free, breaking things and wrong adapter :-(

    Yep, I have the none premium stereo. I hadn't though of putting them up there but it should work if you're able to route the up there.

    Fitting hands free, breaking things and wrong adapter :-(

    I fitted a parrot a few months back and used an ISO SOT 071 like this one but from a UK seller http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=321015894692&alt=web it's all plug and play, I found it difficult to route the connectors though because one of them in a big block and made it so that the...

    Replacing Honda boot logo.

    They're just a push fit, the only real thing holding it on is the adhesive, the pins are only there to locate. The pins have a sleeve that will probably stay in the boot lid (mine did) but there's no securing method on the pins themself
