    Boot open button, wiring diagrams?

    Same with my 2008 8th gen. Drivers door button power opens, internal boot button power closes, key button (long press) power opens and closes, external boot button just releases the latch.

    Russian Brand aftermarket accessories

    I emailed them about their modulo replica in December and they got back to me within 48hrs. Would be worth contacting them again to see why the pulled it, as it’s something I was considering getting in the future. Really hope it comes back! I haven’t got anything from them yet, but I believe...

    Oil Change - Exol

    I’ve been using the appropriate Exol 0W-20 oil in my 8th gen 2.4 for the past two oil changes/1,300 miles. Not a proper long term test but so far everything’s been running smoothly. I bought a 20L tub using the discount code SAVE5 for about £80 delivered. I’ll get 4 oil changes out of that and a...

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    I’m no expert in this field, but the special notice document only say class 1 and 2 motorcycles aren’t a fail. Class 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 vehicles will still fail. I think cars are class 4, but they definitely aren’t motorcycles :p

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    Update. Just had confirmation from the garage that it's fully passed the MOT! Well happy as my garage is generally very thorough.

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    Haha yeah I did swap the bulbs around and the result was unfortunately the same. I've got a mountain of paper work that came with the car, with receipts for everything, and I can't find anything suggesting there has been a replacement headlight, but it is still possible. These Osram LEDs have a...

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    My replacement lamps arrived, so I got the bumper off and swapped them out. It turns out that one of my dipped beam lenses is actually slightly blue; nothing wrong with the first pair of H1 LEDs at all! So now I'm stumped. The headlights look crap as the position lights, main beams and left...

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    Thanks mate. I also didn’t notice any tint on mine, but thought I may as well check. Fingers crossed the replacement lamps are the same colour.

    8th Gen Halogen Dipped Beam Lens Tint

    Over the weekend I replaced my halogen dipped beams with OSRAM LEDriving H1s. They light up the road pretty well and have good cut off, but they are not the same colour; right side is slightly blue, left side is white. Searching the forum this thread mentions the 7th gen Accord dipped beam "has...

    Aftermarket stereo

    @Blippi and @HiiTeN_ have had success installing aftermarket/raspberry pi in theirs. Something I’d like to do at some point.

    Hybrid Short Shifter

    Hahaha yeah true that. I’ve got a big list of stuff I’d like to do/mod, but it comes to more than I paid for the car. :p

    Hybrid Short Shifter

    Yes mine is a manual 6 speed. It's a brilliant gearbox and, whilst I have driven a number of autos for work (no Accords though), I always prefer a manual. The only problem is that there are hardly any manual 2.4s out there....

    Hybrid Short Shifter

    I can't really comment on the 5 speed auto as I haven't driven one, but what I've read about it is it's quite slow to shift with long ratios. The stock box on my manual was really good, but with the delay valve delete, upgraded cable bushings and weighted Mugen knob it is now perfect for me...

    K24A3 engine in the 2008 - 2015 model

    Nice. That’s reminded me that 4pistonracing have had some great success with porting the head on the z3. They found that the intake port is the best flowing of all the k series engines, so opening up the exhaust end would be a winner.

    Hybrid Short Shifter

    Pretty sure it’s possible. I seem to remember seeing threads on the Acurazine and TSXclub forums about them. I’ve been running the Acuity 1881 shifter cable bushings since 22.12.22 on my CW2 and, whilst obviously not a short shifter, they do make the throw slightly shorter. For about £70 you...
