I have no idea why they gave you a second hinge assembly. The part numbers don't overlap parts. But then again, I have no idea why Honda gave me two mounting brackets. No wonder the parts are backordered...they're giving extras away for free :scratches:

Mine came with an extra mounting bracket. If yours came with an extra hinge assembly, then you obviously only need one. Step 4:

Essentially, it's probably something similar to that above. Imagine it's really hot outside, sun is out and hardly any clouds around. Now take a mirror or anything large and reflective and make the sun point to any spot on your paint. Then let it sit there for an hour or two and that is what you...

Sounds like it is time to visit your local dealership. Per the manual:

But are you putting any other object in the seat? A backpack, water bottles, etc? Any object in the passenger seat has the potential to trigger the sensor. If you don't have anything in the passenger seat when it is triggered, then the sensor is malfunctioning.

The passenger's advanced front airbag system has weight sensors in the seat. If the sensors detect the weight of an object in the passenger seat (up to about 65 lbs or 29 kg), the system will automatically turn off the passenger's front airbag.

I didn't measure it, sorry. The dimensions appear to have changed slightly along all of the edges at the very top of the panel.

The part was $7 retail...in the US anyway. The rubbing is noticeable, but very slight. Because the rubbing is in the interior, it's not visible. But if you're OCD like me, it's unacceptable.

I installed the new 2013 rear console panel with ease and the rub is now completely gone. The DIY has been updated with the part numbers for it. Here is a picture showing the design difference. The new rear panel is at the bottom. The color of the plastic panels for the Si match between both...

I think it started with a C, but I can't recall. I tossed it once I got it working.

:yeahthat:

I rented one from College Hills Honda. I'm pretty sure there's a way to make your own and you can probably find a tutorial online somewhere. I just found it easier to rent the tool that Honda recommends.

Step 5 shows the rivet nut tool, which is what I used. I'm not aware of any other way to install it without one.

Basing it off of my prior 2006 Civic, they usually make very minute updates to the software itself. I'll be sure to post anything else new that I notice.

It seems to be a simple map update. I haven't noticed anything new yet, other than the new confirmation screen and the fact that it goes straight to the map whether you select OK or not. Previously, if you didn't select OK at the Confirmation screen, the screen would simply go dark. I preferred...

My patience finally paid off. Navteq called me today and gave me a working password. I created a DIY article here: http://9thcivic.com/forum/threads/2012-honda-civic-navigation-system-software-update-guide.6614/

You live outside the US?

I'm sure you still can, but I'd much prefer viewing it on my navigation screen than on the iMid if at all possible.

Glad to have you on board!
