To be honest the accent lighting is a bit of waste of money.

If you dont mind cords hanging out you can get same or equal effect from a supercheapauto led light.

Well, at the time of purchase i had a look around supercheap and the barn. 3 sets of leds would have set me back about $100. Then to wire it up at that time, got a few quotes about $100. About $100 more so i went with OEM. Didnt really mind then as it was a gift from my uncle for getting a new car :p

Shimian, I noticed in your avatar that you seemed to have a factory bracket for that very nice little navi/HU screen there, can i ask where u got it from

I know the guys in the states have the bracket but it's for those darn left hand drives only.

You can order the bracket from Singapore and it does'nt cost that much,but you have to happen to be there i supposed..

Do you mind telling us how much your civic sports is?

Is it manual or auto?

If you had the chance to buy again would you stretch to the CTR?

Not CTR. I like the interior but outside looks a bit toyish. The only thing i regret is buying OEM full body kit. Even thou i got it for about $2k at the time, i would be happy to spend $3.5k for the oiginal mugen kit
