3. Can you come up with a parts list and install instructions for adding hood dampers on a 4cyl Accord?

8. Does the CR-V radio have a line out so I can install an amplifier? If not is there a way to install one?
9. I'm looking at adding the interior illumination kit for the Civic. Do you sell the lower undercover as an option and is there a way to install the fogs and illumination kit together?
10. You have offered some off-beat accessories in the past. Are there plans to offer side sill garnish kits for the new Accord?

Podcast Episode #112 - 8th Generation Civic Sedan - Si Grille Upgrade

This mod has been out there for a while now but we keep getting requests for an install podcast. So, Kel and I took the time to experiment and here is the result. Remove the lame chrome grille from the non-Si sedans and replace it with the painted Si version. Then, based on personal preference there are a couple of options on what to do with the emblem tab that comes on the new grille base. We opted to chop it off for the video.
