I have an 05, no bluetooth in my car. But it's just the airbag, so it wouldn't affect anything, Bluetooth included.

ehhhh working airbag is over rated. my steering wheel and airbag are jdm . by the way I am still looking into the ep3 Civic SI airbag. however I am not seeing the point in buying it cause as soon as I do racing seats the airbags wont work again. along with the gauges in the a-pillar. I will be getting functional racing harnesses installed too with the racing seats.

I'm not saying anything about anybody. Each person is going to mod their car however makes them happy. As for me, I wouldn't want to risk my safety for the benefit of saying something is JDM. I'd be perfectly happy with an USDM Accord airbag because honestly, judges wouldn't know the difference at a car show.

TSX.Fury - I agree with you about the JDM Pedals, so I ended up selling a set that I originally bought.
I went with the Mugen since it still gives me that JDM look, but a upgraded / modified JDM look.

Your Honda conversion is done! My friend you just started. It will never ever end. That's the fun of doing JDM conversion, the possibilities are

Sweet!!!
I hope you plan on driving her until she falls apart. Otherwise you just killed her resale value. You went out and bought an Acura but then downgraded her to a Honda. lol

Actually, just another 9 months or so But I have all the parts to make her back to an Acura... so I can jack up the price on someone like you that thinks an Acura is better then a Honda

The installation is the easiest thing in the world, two screws and a wiring harness.

Oh ya, i forgot you have a MT. I was gonna get the Mugen Pedals too, but seeing the Mugen AT set looks like crap! The MT set looks way better!! And the Mugen 6MT shift knob ain't bad either, or you can always get the Spoon Titanium one..

I was gonna mention it too..NOT JDM ...haha, but who am i to talk~
anyways, i have friends who have MOMO or Mugen sterring wheel, they have no airbags in them too...it something you have to risk when you wanna make your car as light as possible, or when you want to go hardcore modding~

Where's the seal of approval? You need a JDM stamp that you post in every thread to approve that ride has been JDMized...

I am going MDM ...Mugen Domestic Market
