    Ain't no thing, just bling.
  2. Recall: 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) Driver's Seat Cushion Frame Stop Sale (TSB Service Bulletin 23-030)

    Does anyone have detailed information about what the repair will actually entail? If it's a faulty weld to the floor board (?), do they fix it with an anchor bolt similar to bolt-in roll cages? Or, if it's a bad weld within the rail(s), do they just swap out the lower and/or upper rails? I've...
  3. Initial impressions of the new PRL rear motor mount.

    Nice review; objective, candid, and based upon real experience. What did it cost to have it installed and how long did it take? I’ve considered the 27Won ($173) mount and wondered how it might stack up to the PRL.
  4. FL5 stock exhaust valve: Fuse pulled/always open - exterior sound clips

    Did it this morning in less than 2 minutes and worked perfectly. Sounds much better. TheTopher gets my vote for the "Best Tip of the Year!"
  5. FL5 stock exhaust valve: Fuse pulled/always open - exterior sound clips

    Did you try pulling the active valve fuse in the engine compartment too as suggested by TheTopher? Didn't work for me. I'm wondering if there's a ground/bias in the valve harness. If so, maybe disconnecting the battery after disconnecting the muffler's valve and then re-connecgting it after the...
  6. Anyone disappointed with their decision to purchase the new R?

    Whhhhaaaat? When did that happen? Have you got it back yet?
  7. FL5 stock exhaust valve: Fuse pulled/always open - exterior sound clips

    Many thanks! Any tips on how to reach the valve clip on the muffler? I can’t get my hand to it - LOL!

    For the loudest ā€œpshhh,ā€ get one of the Type-R Performance Air Filter - Sprint Filter - F1 Ultimate Performance ($$$$) from MADNESS Autoworks (TX).
  9. Is anyone doing anything extra for the security system?

    Viper 5706V 2-way (~ $250) and have it professionally installed!
  10. It was fun while it lasted... FL5 hit at red light šŸ˜ž

    Thank God no one was seriously injured! Sorry that you have to endure the many frustrations that accompany the accident, but from where I sit that's a fairly straightforward repair. Good luck!
  11. Installing Front Tow Hook on FL5?

    Good info, and another item needing clarification in the Owner’s Manual.
  12. FL5 with stock height 265/35/18 vs 255/40/18

    Great looking setup! Could you share the part number for the wheels and tires? Thanks!
  13. Installing Front Tow Hook on FL5?

    Many thanks and sorry about the broken pin! Does the tow hook provided in our trunks screw in somewhere inside that hole?
  14. Installing Front Tow Hook on FL5?

    The only location that I can fathom as a tow attachment seems to be the small curvature under the passenger’s side front frame rail. There’s a similar configuration on the driver’s side too. Either might cause bumper damage if towed at a steep angle. The rear attachment site seems reasonable...
  15. Fender vent mesh?

    Let us know how they work out.
  16. Wheel & Tire Insurance

    What’s the best wheel and tire insurance in terms of deductibles, number of claims per year, cosmetic coverage, loaner vehicle, price, comprehensive vs. collision, etc.? I got an estimate of $1,076 for seven years with no deductible etc. from a company (Fidelity) my dealership offers.
  17. Care & Maintenance of PPF & Tint ?

    Anyone have FL5 experience with ClearPlex Windshield Protection Film? Local installation is $600 and may require a bit more skill than PPF. However, one of their websites (https://madico.com/dealers/automotive/windshield-protection/clearplex-readyfit) says, "No installation training is...
