What exactly is a reverse lock out sensor? And what happens if you run a KPRO ECU 5 speed in an EP3? and what is the relationship between both the functionality of the reverse lock out sensor and a KPRO ECU 5 speed?
thanks.

Lock out sensor is basically stops you from accidentally shifting into reverse. I think it uses use moving speed to sense it. As for running kpro I'm not sure, but you'll want prb, prd or pre ecu

Thanks for the reply.
Turns out the Ep3 I was looking at a few posts back is running the incorrect Kpro and has a broken lock out sensor. Also found out that the engine doesn't have a receipt from the builder to confirm the engine hasn't been stolen (also found out that dr Honda is a scam artist from BYR). Thsts just the tip of the issues wrong with the car, I'm glad I got that pre purchase inspection done. Car is impossible to engineer without a legit receipt from dr Honda.

I need to find out what type of standard globes the EP3 has in the headlights. Currently the standard lights are like hmm 2 candle power and the high beams are maybe 4. Looking at getting some HIDs, any ideas?

OEM globes are D2R - so already HID. If you don't have HIDs already it's likely that they changed it to a halogen bulb for compliance and did not revert it afterwards.

Have u or anyone tried changing the bulbs? The space is too tight to remove the bulb. Do u have to remove the bumper and if so, any diy instructions around?
