EuRTSX - You can find them on eBay. Just search "air spencer" or "air spencer giga". Or you can find them at "Asian" car shops that sell knockoff Altezza lights and stuff like that.
yeah. Go to Korean or Japanese store. You should able to find them but they are kind of pricy. The smell runs out pretty fast too. It doesnt even last a month and filling cost about $10.

LOL, that could either be good, and make you hungry all the time, or be bad and smell like rancid meat when it gets hot and make you sick to your stomach

If you keep your car clean the new car smell lasts a long ass time. I've had my tsx for 3 years and still have people commenting on the new car smell. (though unnoticable to me)

You know, Im not big on this whole "reading" thing either, but it looks like it says "AIR SPENCER"

Googling that, gives you this: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=air+spencer

i'm a big fan of California Scents - Laguna Breeze


but it's pretty damn hard to find up here in Canada it seems, Canadian Tire has it on and off, but I don't know where to find it consistantly... i always got compliments on how nice and clean my car smelled, without being overpowering...

Either way i'm just curious to see what kind of products ppl use...
I saw this today but it didn't look like quite the same thing..anybody used this?



It smelled kinda like a sweetart to me(laguna breeze)

I've used those before in my previous car. They don't last very long. If I remember correctly, there are two or three little "pads" inside the can that give it the scent. They tend to dry out and lose their scent after a few weeks, but overall not too bad for a couple bucks.

Pretty interesting article about new car scent... Just before I get flamed I only posted this since we are trying to keep the car smelling new. A lot of you know this already but for those who dont here you go... I'm not trying to highjack I just thought it was interesting...

ya it's the same thing, just with a different lid..

IMO they last longer than advertised, and longer than other ones i've tried...

For those interested in the "myshaldan" fresheners

Here's the link:

http://www.myshaldanairfresheners.com/myshaldan.php

Minimum order is $15 though. Looks like they'll have a dealer locator soon. Enjoy!

I've had my car since March 05 and everyone that hops in it still says it has that great new car smell. I don't use any air fresheners... I just keep the interior free of food and drink, clean it every few weeks, and use leather conditioner on the seats every one or two months. I personally can't tell if it still smells new, but if the passengers say it does, then I believe them.

I use the Smooth Cologne Light Squash(Blue) . IMO it smells better than the CS-X3 Squash(Blue) and lasts twice as long. Also it costs only 1 dollar more at the local Honda dealership

I started using them as soon as I got my TSX, and for 2 bucks a peice, you can't go wrong in terms of price.

I love THIS in VANILLA and APPLE!
