Did you install? I can't find the spring ratings on their website. Curious what the difference is between the ITS and FL5

I added the following interior lighting to the FL5:

1. JDM OEM LED Tailgate Light (08E17-T43-000) - this LED light is a net new light located just below the left tailgate grab handle. This part is a complete kit that consists of wiring harnesses, LED light with switch, zip ties, template to make the cut, bezzle/housing for the light, foam inserts to prevent rattles, and other miscellaneous components. A+ quality kit with literally everything you need to install the light. I expect nothing less from Honda. What's interesting is when you remove the panel and flip it over, it's already premarked for where this light should go (see picture). In total, this takes 2-3 hours to complete properly if working at a leisurely pace.

2. JDM OEM LED Room Lamp (08E13-E4A-A00) - this LED light replaces the current halogen light located in the tailgate area on the right. This is really straight forward, you're simply swapping one light for the other. This takes less than 5 minutes to complete.

BLUF: These lights significantly enhance the lighting conditions in the tailgate area. The lights are OEM, functional, and look good. What more can you ask for? I've included photos below of parts of the installation along with before and after.

FYI - These items are pictured on Page 6 of the JDM Honda Genuine Accessory Catalog along with part numbers.
Just received my kit for the tailgate light, hope its not a big of a pain as it possibly seems.

Tried to install my rock guards into the lower front fender vents, went to pop off a rivet, and it instantly broke off. Can't believe how brittle these things are, albeit it was 30 degrees out...

Gave up on the whole install, not worth the hassle..

This is my luck whenever trying to do any simple car mod.

Don’t be discouraged. They break. Hopefully the guards you bought came with replacements.

Those are like Karo mats, where did you get them from? I had Karo Sisal mats in my S2000 and loved them.

I'd like to know as well, been thinking about some mats with a checkerboard pattern.

I have the Karo mats for my S2000 also. From this picture I can’t tell whether it extends to under the seat. These types of mats looks nice and is durable but I find it harder to clean.

They break its completely normal, just have spares to replace them. 2 of mine imploded on themselves.

I’m not OP, but they got them directly from cocomats. They’re especially popular with the Porsche crowd.
