What did you do to your Gen7 today?

Adjusted the shit out of my parking brake. Seems like it wasn't touched since new. I should've known. Oh well. Problem fixed.

Adjusted the shit out of my parking brake. Seems like it wasn't touched since new. I should've known. Oh well. Problem fixed.

mine feels a little sloppy, is the adjustment screw on the cable under the car, or under the center console??? IIRC from installing my short shifter, it is under the CC, but I don't know for sure...

swapped in some LED's, the white goes really nice with the white in the gauges and stereo...seems like there should be more light though, like under the dash for the feet.  the ones on the door seem kinda useless, then there is only the two from map lights, and the one dome light in the rear.

YOOOO!!!!  what's up with the rear door lights?!?!?!?! or should I say, Lack there of!  I removed the lenses (red, weird), and there wansnt anything there, yet there were cut-outs for them?  I'd like to put clear lenses in there and an actual light.  anyone done this???

the rest of the lights should be delivered tomorrow, today I only got the doors and the trunk one done, but I was able to do all but three in my jeep, which should be the same as the ones coming in tomorrow for the accord...

Yeah, its under the CC, sucks for the 7th Gens you have to take out the whole CC.  On my 5th Gen there was a little panel that popped out in the middle of the CC so you could adjust without takin the whole thing out.

Mark, nobody has tried to install lights in the rear doors that I know of.  Honestly, it's not that hard to do if you understand DC wiring.  I was planning on doing it at one point, and have all the parts, but other projects have taken priority over rear door lights.

Also, there's a DIY on how to adjust the parking brake.  If you take the console out, you're doing it the hard way.  All you need is an extension and you're good.  You can take off the rear cover of the center console and get access.

Just got in from doing more work on my car.  Yes, I realize it's 5:45 am my time.  I was on a roll and just didn't stop.  I wasn't planning on staying up this late, but it happened.  I put on the half shaft, installed the axles, changed my oil, filled my tranny fluid, filled my coolant, put in the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder and then bled the system, and bolted up the battery tray.  At this point, all I need to do is tighten the axle nuts and drop in the battery so I can start it up.

Wow. That's crazy tim.  I miss my gen 7.

Clear lenses, yes.  Actual lights, no.

My GFs Grand Am had round reflectors (red) on the inside so when you opened the door it made you more visible... I guess. lol

Drove it to Chicago today. Averaged 31 MPG on the way up. Not to bad for a v6. I've got it hidden in the city until Sunday lol.

[sherker55]

finished with the map and dome light LED's, looks sweet!  also finished my jeeps dome/rear passengger map lights....for some reason they all stay on, even when switched off from the main light switch control on the turn signal post...why would they do that???  Im going to go out now and check again to see if they still are on!

[sherker55]

ok so now they are off, fucking weird, maybe they are just "burning" off extra power once everything is shut down...

[CrackerTeg]

Drove it back home for another 1000 miles. Really nothing much.

[timot_one]

Drove it and broke it.
