He credited her preference to the better power delivery from the 1.8-liter engine and five-speed automatic transmission in the 2012, not to mention the seating position and outward visibility, were leagues better in the 2012 than in the 2000 model. His grandmother’s only complaints centered around the dual-stack instrument cluster and the lack of an illuminated ring around the ignition key.

Seems like Canada gets screwed again..... ".................

I still would like to see someone with an LX or EX post a picture.

Thought i might add this for people going with LED/LED style signal bulbs that use less than the 50w req.

Simple wattage correction

Also added this to my retrofitting DIY

I put resistors on my LED fogs and hi beams, but do i need them there?

no certainly not. it doesn't matter how much power they use, car will not notice that wattage change

only LED signals is needed for the functionality. will try and post pictures tonight
