This is where I bought my "Locking Gas Cap" and it works great

Thanks,

Now when I was initially looking at Civics a little while back I DID see the footwell lighting kit as an available accessory, so I did some digging.
At College Hills Honda, they list a "Courtesy Light" for the 2006 Civic Sedan/Coupe/Hybrid. (Part #08E10-SNA-110) Its pretty much what I imagined when I thought of the footwell lighting kit and I think the blue color would match the other light scheme well.
Does anyone have any guesses as to whether or not it might fit into the Fit? (Really, no pun... its just so tough!) Has anyone seen the footwell kit in a Jazz accessory list?
I didn't want to spend an extra $3K to get the Sport model with the alarm when I could spend $200 to get an alarm installed elsewhere.
Best move I've made, I'd have to say.
This was a problem on my Accord Wagon too...but wasn't nearly as obnoxious. There was a plastic frame which notches that I could tuck the bottom of the plate behind to secure it.
NOT on the FIT. Now it's just bugging me.
why can't the darn thing be secured like the front one? Even though it won't make noise, it'll still flap.
I used to think the problem was with used car dealers but after buying my FIT i realize that is not so. and don't get me talking about trade ins!!!!!!!!!
Perhaps my experience will help you to see why some customers are uncomfortable with car dealers.
I went to a honda dealership who told me the only way i could buy the fit was with a $1400 option package (upholstery package of all things!!!!!) and that all the dealers are doing the same.
went to three dealers in a 50 mile radius of them and NONE of them were forcing the package onto their customers. In fact one of the dealers i went to laughed when i told him, he was an older gentleman and said "all car dealers used to do things like that back in the old days to make a better profit, but nowadays i didn't think anyone did that anymore."

Like you said, it would beep three times if the alarm had gone off due to an intrusion. And I think it would not beep at all, if the doors were not locked in the first place. I always liked that feature because it tells you what has, or has not, happened.
I was wondering if I could trouble you to confirm the exact model number of the system? It should be in the Instruction Manual, or the sales invoice.
Many thanks!
I appreciate your looking into it for me. Thanks!
PS: Is a siren part of the parkage, or does it beep, when arming and disarming, via the horn (which can be quite loud)?

I was very hesitant to go forth and spend the $200 simply because I've never had a vehicle with an alarm and am pretty clueless as to how it all works. But the guys at the place I went to (an independant auto electronics shop) were awesome and really explained everything to me.
If I had to do it all over again, I would. And, for me, it made more sense to spend the $200 than get the Sport version. Good luck!
There has been no listing of sunroof on any of the pre-production equipment lists for the Fit.

I'm located in Kingston, Ontario & just installed a Thule roof rack, specially designed for the Honda Fit. Thule parts needed are:
Kit 1312
Footpack 750
& 120 cm load bars (i bought their 761 'square bars' although their 'aero bar' option = Thule 861 bars, will also work)
I was quite frustrated trying to purchase a Thule (or any) roof rack for my Honda fit. Our local Honda dealer was useless in this regard. So I bought the aforementioned parts from a Thule Retailer located in the U.K. The Installation instructions that came with the Kit 1312 (contains the clips) said the parts were specifically designed for either the Honda Jazz (U.K. version of Honda Fit) OR Honda Fit. So its weird that Thule in North America has no idea if & when roof rack for Honda Fit will be available. Anyways the rack was easy to install, looks great and now we can carry our bikes or kayaks with ease.
the shop in the U.K. I dealt with is:
Roof Rack Shop UK
9 Brewster Square
Brucefield Industrial Estate
Livingston
West Lothian
EH54 9BJ
Tel: 01506 418218
Fax: 01506 418123

The Roof Rack shop was very helpful processing the order; quickly responded to all my emails etc... total cost for the parts I ordered was about 90 pounds, but then I had to pay about another 90 or so pounds for shipping. whatever... I desperately needed the rack and am quite pleased to finally have one for our honda fit that works with our existing Thule rack attachments (= fork mount bike attachments, kayak ,& skiis).\\hope this helps.

How did you tie into the Aux and DC adapter? I'm thinking about doing the satellite thing but don't want to tie up the connections either.
Thanks.
The first is maxdax in Singapore. They quoted me a price of US$36 + US$39 shipping.
The second is an eBay store called HK-Plus in Hong Kong. Their current auction lists the armrest for $34 + $35 shipping. Since their price was lower, I decided to give HK-Plus a try. I put in an order earlier today.
Once it arrives and I have installed it, I will provide feedback on the vendor and the armrest.

RackAttack.com was very helpful with advice and parts.
The organizer on Target's web site is pretty small: 15-1/4" x 22-1/2". The one on display in the local Target stores was even smaller, with an insulated center compartment. Neither have the tie-down straps as on the Honda version to attach to the fittings in the Fit's cargo space.
I just returned from a weekend road trip = a 650 km return trip up to the laurentians. absolutely no prob's cruising at 120 km/h on the 401 with two bikes mounted on the thule roof rack. we have also beem driving around with a 16 foot sea kayak mounted on the same roof rack = A-OK
see pics at: http://www.carspace.com/biobassman/?50@@.59a90076
hope this helps.
The major question is: can you use it without any screws and how does it affect refresh mode/cargo mode?
I also wanna buy one but I just wonder is the armrest "compatible" to the interior of the Fit? As I see from the photos the exterior of the armrest is made by leather but there's no leather in our Fit... I'm afraid it will look strange to put it in my Fit...
Here's the site for Bernardi Parts here. And, here's where it gives the dimensions for the organizer (it's listed under the "Honda Pilot Accessories tab"
I'm trying to buy a cargo organizer, too, and I don't want to spend Honda money, but so far, it looks like the best choice.
