So I picked up my new shift knob from the dealer today. Originally the car didn't have one and they ordered one for me but I had borrowed a random one from my buddy. I'm liking the new ball shaped shift knob a lot more. I also decided to take apart the interior dome light and sand down the contacts. It was not working properly. It works a bu\it better now but the regular ON button still doesn't work. Going to have to try again this weekend. And a couple of random shots my buddy took with his new S5 phone. His pics look better than my S3 pics

Not much to update but did wash the car today. Decided to use that Lexol cleaner and then conditioner on the seats and also used top end convertible top cleaner. I used a micro fiber towel on the top end but I think a brush would work better. Here is a night pic

Previous owners had rims and I assume coilovers installed. Also a single tip exhaust which is pretty loud. Sounds beastly. Not really liking the rims but I can always switch it up later and maybe the exhaust too not sure if I love it or hate it.

Ive been noticing a lot of exhaust rattle. Need to get under the car to inspect it. I kind of want to keep the current exhaust on it but I might change my mind later. As for the wheels I will be sure to double check the fitment guide before making a purchase.

Not much to update but got my alarm installed this past weekend. Learned that my car is so much lower than my old civic the hard way and have scraped twice going into steep drive ways
and open containers are a no no in the cup holder. Always spills when I shift but still love this car to death. Every time I park somewhere I try to do it by a window with a good view so I can keep an eye on it. Here's a random shot and yes I know my parking was terrible lol

I also saw another fellow S2K owner while driving today on the way home. Didn't get to see if it was a AP1 or AP2 but it was NFR color. I threw up the dueces and he did too!
