Added a light-up emblem on the front… Feels like it should have been there from the start

Just installed a light-up emblem on the front. Honestly, I think the car should have come with one from the factory. What do you all think?

Looks great. Where can I get one of these?

Yeah, I’d love to know too

Got it from this site: Dynamic Blackout Honda Light up Emblem (8 Sizes Available for Selection) | Light up with Animation

The one you need is 117x95mm. Installing it means taking off the front bumper and removing the grill.

Appreciate it. Looks awesome on your car.

@Monroe
Did you go with the silver or black one? Do both light up?

I got the silver one.

That looks amazing. Was it hard to install? Also, does it interfere with any radar?

Not too bad. You have to take off the bumper and the grill. After that, it’s just mounting the new emblem, wiring it up, and putting everything back together. The radar is actually in the windshield, so no issues there.

Is there a video guide somewhere? I want one but I don’t want to get in over my head.

That looks really nice

This should have been a factory option

That actually looks cool… Not sure I want to deal with removing the bumper though. How much work was it?

Took me about 45 minutes to get the bumper off and back on. Another hour to mount and wire the emblem. Now that I’ve done it once, I could probably do the whole thing in about an hour next time.

@Monroe
That’s not too bad. Thanks for the info.

@Monroe
Where are you located? Any chance I could pay you in beer to install mine?

That looks awesome

Nice upgrade

I’m looking at getting one of these or a CR-V hybrid tomorrow. Do you love it? Would you recommend it? I really like it, but people keep telling me not to go for it.

I actually love how it looks and drives. The only issue I’ve had is with my CV axles, and Honda says the parts are on national backorder until April or May. If that doesn’t get sorted, they might have to buy the car back. That said, I’d suggest driving both and picking the one that feels right for you. If you can charge at home or your work has free/cheap charging, it’s a great city car. I have two other cars (gas/hybrid) for longer trips.
