Re: Honda Accessories: Order of usefulness [lousalvador]
by sreiss on Sat Mar 08 04:56:01 PST 2008
I have an 07 Ody EX-L The dealer threw in the wheel locks for me - I think it's worth it because I've heard that if anything, the wheels are a really big target for theft. It used to be the radio but I hear that's not such a draw anymore. Probably a very low likelihood of theft anyway, but worth having, I think. Mud guards: I put those on myself - got them from http://www.handaaccessories.com/. Easy to install, and reduces mess on the car body, and improves the look, I think. Moonroof visor: I had the dealer do this one - negotiated it as part of the purchase. Probably easy enough to purchase and install, but having them do it puts it under warranty. Another owner of the same model who doesn't have the moonroof visor tells me that it makes a big difference to have it. Reduces wind noise. Trunk liner: Also purchased from http://www.handaaccessories.com/ and "installed" myself (you just lay it in there - not very technically challenging!) I have to say I am very disappointed in this one. We had an 01 Ody and had the Honda trunk liner for it, and it was quite substantial. Unfortunately, you can't use it in the 07 Ody's. The new one feels quite flimsy, and it folds and 'crinkles'. It is not a quality product due to the materials used. And you pay an arm and a leg for it. The function is valuable though, if you put lots of kids' stuff and dog stuff and groceries and whatever in there (we do) since it keeps things clean and protects against the possibility of something leaking and making a mess. You just pull it out and dump it. I got a cheap ($20) set of 4 rubber floor mats from Costco (two in front, two in back) which are okay. Sets like this are usually 4x that cost from what I've seen. But from what I've read on this board about the weathertech liners, I am seriously considering those for all 3 rows. They'll do a much better job. The only other thing I have is a hitch, which I transferred over from the 01 Ody - it's an aftermarket Hidden Hitch. If I were to put on cross bars, I would only go with a Thule or Yakima system. They'll be more sturdy and allow you to carry a better variety of things and handle more weight. None of the other items you mentioned are of interest to me.
Re: 2008 G35xs purchase price 10/25/08 [car_enthu]

Yes that price is with all the incentives applied for the XS model, All Wheel+Sport, Premium packages 08' model. My guess is I could have had it without paying for the Bra if I had remembered to check the car. Also as I am sure other folks know, you cannot install a roof rack so I am going to use a Yakima removable King Joe for the trunk.

I make the trip to Tri-Cities about once every two weeks. Usually it is 18, I-90 and then I-82. Let me tell you, that stretch of I-82 between Ellensburg and Yakima can be a pain. It amazes me how many semi trucks will pull out into the left lane right in front of me when traveling up those ridges so that they can pass another truck. I have to hit the brakes hard because they are moving so slowly. Of course, they are going about 1 mph faster than the one they are passing so I get to spend some quality time behind them. :mad:
Re: Roof racks w/cross bars [kevin34]
by dmac22 on Thu Oct 16 09:25:03 PDT 2008
I think the rails are a must in terms utility. I'm looking right now at adding either the Acura cross bars myself ($170 online) or going with a Thule or Yakima rack (~ $200) so I can add a ski carrier or cargo box. The aftermarket stuff can be taken on/off more easily and they make a fairing to reduce wind noise.... plus they should be more versatile. Has anybody added a cargo box to the Acura cross bars?... I worry that they might flex too much.
Roof Racks for Matrix
by fishbear on Sun Sep 14 09:24:43 PDT 2008
I just bought a 2006 Matrix with no factory rack. My Corolla wagon had a factory rack and I bought a Thule rack to attach to it. I want to carry a cartop aluminum boat and maybe lumber and ladders occasionally. Anyone have any comments on racks that would work? It would not be used frequently, so I prefer something cheaper than Thule or Yakima. Maybe a good quality removable rack?
weathertech mats
by hangaralf1 on Wed Dec 12 16:02:00 PST 2007
i had weathertech mats in my previous odyssey. they worked very well - i recommend them. for what its worth though, whoever makes weathertech mats also makes the honda mats. get the "trunk"liner - it is very worth it for the person looking for cross bars, depending on what you want to do with them, i would recommend looking at thule or yakima. there are whole systems based on their bars and you don't have to look for special clamps that fit just the honda.
