What did you do to your GE fit today?

Same plans for Sunday my interior is terrible from the winter but the weather has been bad except for this weekend until Monday. The door panels and dash are dirty and it needs vacuuming.

I pulled the DRL fuse after they cost me 2 pairs of expensive bulbs. My $5 ebay super white bulbs have lasted longer so far.
Aftermarket bulbs try to draw more amperage when DRL's limit voltage, so bulbs tend to go BOOM
It is why honda stuck long life bulbs in factory. They knew even long life bulbs will not last as long as vehicles that dont use the low beam circuit for DRLs

and i didnt feel like spending $50 every 7-8months on aftermarket bulbs. i hate H4's anyway, yet dont feel like doing HID's... so this is a great cheap option for me. on a dry day, my DRL is off.

i did too, in the beginning... i wrote about it in my blog, but i dont want my hu to dim when i turn on my parking lights or headlights in light rain during the day. DRL is very functional for that.

You can, but it will not help with an aftermarket headunit!
#8195
Mine is adjusted seperately, I can make it any color or brightness I want with the headlights (or driving lights) on or off. The brightness knob has no effect on my headunit.

What was done to reduce the body roll? I finally installed my Progress RSB has been sitting around since January pain in the ass passenger side but managed to get bolts in, torque to 40lb.
Wonder if there is any need to re-torque in the future?

Bought the Fit a V8 6 speed companion.
Now I can slam, make louder, make meaner, etc., the Fit without looking like...well, a guy with a tricked out Honda when I'm doing business. Besides, I am/was a German car guy, and the Fit is my foray into reliable fun. Glad to have it as backup, that's for sure. I love it dearly, and there is just no replacement for the Fit. I love it even more now that it can be more of a garage queen.
TEO: that is positively awesome handling. I want that level of response during the new build/version 2.0 of my Fit.
