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.

Are there any screws to take off for the panel with the sub woofer cover? How does the wire route up into the hatch? Thanks for any advice.

So far I put on my wheels and tires, hr springs. That was about 2 weeks ago. I have the oil catch can I just need to take the time to install it. Waiting for temps to get back above 40! It’s been freezing outside lol

yesterday I put on my front lip from Aeroflow dynamics. Had planned on doing the catch can too but the temp dropped and I decided to head inside I was getting cold lol. The lip Install was pretty easy and it looks great. If it breaks, I’m glad I only paid $172. That makes it a little easier to replace. OEM +

New floormats from Evasive. Been using the black OEM high walls since day one and wanted some more red. Obviously a lot less coverage, but I'll give them a shot.

Your center console wrap turned out great! Nice work!
