Will be buying a new Element later this year and am leaning toward an LX because I like the unpainted panels and don't need an expensive radio. However, I've heard that if I want arm rests (and I do) I must go with the EX. What arm rests are missing from the LX? All of them? Those on the doors? One on the right side of the driver's seat? One on the left side of the passenger seat? A Honda accessories company, H and A, offers a storage/arm rest for the right side of the driver's seat (which involves the seat being cut into — a prospect that fills me with trepidation). Is this the only way to get two arm rests for both driver and passenger or must I save up an extra 2K for an EX? |

| Only the center armrests are missing. You can buy them as an accessory. Personally, it is not a big deal (for me). It is just like my xB. | |
I'm looking into getting a Pioneer AVIC-D3 DVD Navigation Receiver for my 2007 Honda Element EX 4WD. Does anyone know why Crutchfield would say that the "factory subwoofer and/or sub amplifier will be lost." If that is true is there a way that it would work? Also, would I need to get all new speaker for this receiver or would the Element's factory speakers be enough? Any assisstance on this would be great. Thanks.

| We like the element (price, safety, Honda values), our one questions is about our dogs in the cargo area. We would like to have them stay in the cargo area with a pet guard or cargo divider. We have not seen one on the market that would go fit the element box shape. Anyone out ther have one, that works? Also, we had wanted a car with leather (dog fur issue again) how does the element fabric work, the car we have now holds the fur like glue. | |

Replying to: ragets (Mar 24, 2008 7:13 am) The D3 is a good value but there is a catch or two. First, it only has one CD/DVD slot, IIRC, so you have to remove the map DVD to play your CD. I find that inconvenient. Eclipse has units at this price point that are hard-drive based, so you don't have to choose one or the other. Ask the tech what kind of outputs the D3 has. It may lack a low-level output for your subwoofer/amp, and that may be why they say it won't work. I'm not sure, just saying you should ask about that specifically. |

both highbeams work-both low beams dont'.Is it this just a bad bulb?

| I just received the September '08 Car and Driver magazine and it has all the new '09 Cars. Under Honda It says that the Element will be restyled with revised sheetmetal and upgraded amenities and electronics. The platform and 2.4 liter 4-cyl engine will remain the same. | |
