Man where did you dig this thread up from , last post was February 2007!!!

All I said was that I never had a problem with them, mind you never had a claim with them either, other people might of...

Its ok I have a VTI so not an issue. Just curious from a legal point of view cos if the airbags didnt deploy properly in an accident there would be an absolute legal nightmare. Especially if someone...

I am curious to know how they are compatible with side air bags? Do they have a gap with the sidebag comes out or a weakened point for it?

they arent the genuine item and dont have the genuine stalk switch either.

As long as you know they arent genuine thats all.

It is not the type of fabric/material that is the problem, it is that they block the deployment of the airbag. The one ones i have seen that will still work are the insert type (they dont completely...

Buddah,

Thanks for that and for the picture. Asked my wife what she thought, response was " they look like they could go on a 4wd" I laughed as said yep probably.

I sourced a retailer for the...

Was that $250 for each light or $250 for the pair.

Just quoted $259 per light for a hella.

PM Sent, thanks.

I am guessing that yours a pencil beam type light as opposed to a wide spread beam?

Do you notice any drop in lighting in the car when the spotties come on due to current drain?

Can you please post a picture, stuffed if I know where they will fit properly!!!

Just noticed you avatar, but do you have a bigger picture than that?

What did it cost you? (if you dont mind me...

wow 215/40's

that would make a difference, so your speedo must be reading faster than you are actually going. as due to the smaller circumference the wheel would travel less distance in one...

Yeah that is a handy feature, I had it on A Renault I hired once. When you hit 20km/h the doors locked.

yeah it would only be millimetres so no need to worry I guess, you get more difference than that as the tyres wear down.

Do you find your speed is out much cos of the 215/45 profile. I was told that the correct same size from 15's to 17's was a 225/45/17...or did you come from 16's originally?

So is it worth doing this mod to an Auto 1.8?

I think they look nice but I would hate to think how much Honda are charging for them:eek:

Yes and no.

Yes looking for that type of light but no, not like the bid 4wd ones. Something smaller that will look in line with the car.

Maybe something like this ...

As well as upgrading the globes in the headlights I am looking to put some powerful spot lights on my 2006/07 civic. Has anyone one else done anything similar? If so do you have any pictures.

I am...

What does everyone think of the red painted brake calliper look?

Anyone actually painted the stock callipers??

Nepolian thanks for the info, I will definately be looking at them as an option.

Cos I think the 19's are way too big and comfort would suffer. Also the cost of tyres jumps up dramatically.

18's would probably look ok but cost would be an issue. I would be happy with 17's.

Nice looking tyre as well, what are they like against brands like yokohama and in particular the S Drive?

No point in paying $150 if they are no good, if they are as good as theS drives then that...

Just had a look at the S Drives, they look very nice, how do you find them? Noise? Handling, Wear?

Yeah spoke to some tyre shops $150 a tyre for really dodgy tyres in 225/45/17 or more realistically $270 - $300 a tyre for something good.

Hi all,

After I got my Civic in Dec 06 I put some nice 15's on it to replace the ugly steel wheel/plastic cover combination. Now I am tired of the 15inch look and I am kicking myself a bit for not...
