No you're not, I was just telling myself I should program that HomeLink to my garage. Also the rear view mirror has anti-glare on/off using a sensor to change gel color ... kindda like tints
Hey! How are you enjoying the FL5?
Just wanted to ask, with the FL5 having a Homelink, do we still have an extra plug from the upper light panel behind the mirror for a front dashcam?

I’m planning to use FitcamX for the OEM finish but I’m afraid with the Homelink available (which I wasn’t expecting), I might not have enough plug to use. TIA!

I love the car, it's such a joy to drive on the streets...luckily haven't been in bumper to bumper traffic but it's not ideal ... but this car is really a gem on the track so much power that you can't really enjoy on the streets if you're a sensible responsible human that doesn't want to get impounded.. in the summer i am hoping to hit the track at least once to establish a baseline before working up a list of mods

i am also looking into the fitcamX it should be fine, because based on their instructions it goes into the trims above the mirror so you wouldn't touch the mirror and they provide a piggy back y connector to tap into the existing harness which i am assuming powers the dome lights and the camera that comes with the car for the sonar radar and all those safety features that i turned most of them off anyway...when i do get it i can provide feedback

Glad to hear that! Looking forward to your build. ??

I see, thanks for clearing my doubts. Please do! I’ll be sure waiting on your feedback. Thank you so much again!

For what it's worth, there were a few Integras that were inadvertently delivered with Homelink mirrors over the summer, but they weren't wired/functional. At least one owner took his to the dealership to have it fixed, and the offer was to remove that mirror and install the correct mirror rather than run the proper wiring harness to make the mirror functional.

Winter beater currently
Has anyone in Canada gotten the ITS module installed? How much was the part from Acura (Canada) and is it “readily” available at dealers?

I might be wrong on this, but it looks like the SGP I posted in Prince George BC might be back on the market. It's back on Car Gurus. Any takers?
Only sell to local ?‍?
And NOT MSRP
He's not willing to tell how much Mark up

Yes, 58 + extra
I almost gave up on the type R dream until I read one of the guys above picked up his recently. One of the OGs that is in this thread.
A decent number of cars came through some not even posted on CarGuru's in November/December. We should see another batch of cars coming in the next week or 2 hopefully. Unfortunately we don't know how many but it's something.

Don’t give up, there is still rest of 24 & 2025. I think prices are stabilizing, and there are still decent dealerships out there that will just sell at msrp.
And there’s always plan b, worse case you get an ITS or EN, both great cars imo.
