    420Coupe's BOSS R18A1

    ive yet to take apart the rear disc on a civic, but the accords and crvs ive worked on both have the mechanical drum, so i dont see why not for the 8th skip to around 2:10 to see the rotor come off exposing the e brake mechanism, ignore the guy drilling out the rotor screws

    420Coupe's BOSS R18A1

    but when you rip the e-brake youre actuating the actual drum brake on cars without rear disc. Rear disc hondas ive seen have a mechanical drum brake inside the hub of the disc that the e-brake is linked to so i kinda question the brake force determination based on e-brake force

    Keeping Stock Bluetooth Controls with Aftermarket Headunit

    i think if you follow the PAC directions for including the bluetooth wires your ASWC should be able to understand the inputs, it just might need to be manually programmed

    Keeping Stock Bluetooth Controls with Aftermarket Headunit

    PAC says it can do both on the 9th gen by exactly my theoretical method http://www.pac-audio.com/SWI/SWIAppGuide.aspx?appguideid=618&swiModel=Civic&swiYear=2012&swiMake=Honda&swiProduct=SWI-PS&swiRadioManu=Pioneer&swiOptions=Radio%20with%20or%20without%20BT

    Keeping Stock Bluetooth Controls with Aftermarket Headunit

    Im basing my theory on the fact that the PAC claims to be able to do it on the 8th gen, just by putting the two + wires from the bluetooth and the audio controls into the input and grounding the other end, if the PAC can differentiate the signals, i dont see why the ASWC cant do the same, it...
