    Daytime Running Lights

    Ledstrips always seem out of place. Even when they come as OEM. I've seen a solution here in the forum a while back that made the high beams at half the power or something, and always on. I would swallow a solution like that.

    Oil pressure light

    Doesn't seem something to worry about. If the oil light went off after starting the car, it should be fine. And 5 minutes are not enought to take the temperature needle anywhere. If the light comes on while driving, that's something to worry about. But keep an eye on it.

    Best replacement clutch for Honda Accord (2007) 2.2l Diesel Tourer ?

    This thread came in good time. I'll be needing a new clutch soon. Don't know when, but surely in a few thousand miles (i hope). In the last long trip I made, it started slipping in 4th gear at half the way to destination. I bought the car with around 42k miles, did the remap straight away and...

    Rims

    You should look for 18" x 7.5 (the width of the wheel) and offset (or ET) 45. I wouldn't go lower than 45. The oem wheels are et 55. The lower the value, the wider the wheel will seem in the car. My wheels are et 48 and seem fine to me. The offset is the distance between the rim's center line...

    Not your typical clutch question

    Could this have something to do with it? Now seriously, there's a know problem with the cruise control switch. When not properly adjusted, it causes the clutch to slip. Check: http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/2928-clutch-issues-due-to-cruise-control/...

    Boot Lid

    It's a great mod. And very useful too! I've done it to my 7 th gen using a gas strut. It doesn't open all the way fully, but it's enough for me.

    Automatic locking

    When I bought the car I left my key in the boot and closed it. I opened the boot with the key fob, put the key in the boot to pick up something, closed the lid and that was it. lol Had to break the rear door small window to open it. A couple of years ago, I bought an aftermarket blade key...

    front chin lip spoiler

    Yes, it came out quite nice, because it's not exaggerated. I used a sort of 3M tape yes, and it seems solid. But the product even comes with screws, so I'll be putting some screws in a few days.

    front chin lip spoiler

    So, here it is. Not too bad, I think, considering this thing is used in garage doors. Used double faced strong tape.

    5.9 litres?

    Yep, probably they have stiffer sidewalls. At least you are not wasting anymore money.
