Thanks, I'll look at Costco and let you know what I find. The car is in really good mechanical condition but lacked care on the interior. I have to use the key to lock the doors. Purchased the car for my son and had the mechanics do a thorough going over before/after purchase. Seems very sound but needs a major detailing and perhaps interior seat covers etc.

#45 of 513 security vs keyless entry by pedrokim

I just purchased a 2003 Civic EX with side air bags and no other options. The dealer offered me the "security" system for $500. Hahaha! I have the keyless entry, but what is the security system? Should I even think about a aftermarket alarm, like the Viper? Thanks.

You could get the security system module from http://www.handaaccessories.com/ for $120 and install it yourself. Pretty straightforward.

I saw the site, but I still don't understand the advantage of having one, the other or both. I would like to hear the justification of $120+. Is it just a noisemaker? If so I'll skip it.

I love the keyless entry. Very convenient. Thought it was a gew-gaw, until it came on a car I bought and I started using it.

Well, it's an alarm, integrated with keyless entry system. I would say it's more than a noisemaker.

#50 of 513 Tire upgrades ?? by redsir

Would like to upgrade for better wet traction.
 
Selection for 195/60/15 v-rated is very limited.
 
Looks like 205/55/15 is the choice.
 
What have you changed to?

#51 of 513 Rear suspension by mdriver

Has anyone replaced the rear shocks on their Civic to improve damping control. I am getting tired of my 02's floaty jumpy rear ride. Are there any aftermarket adjustable shocks that will work in conjuction with the perfectly acceptable front stock struts? Cheers

#52 of 513 2003 Civic EX Brake Handle by iluvbogene

Mar 10, 2003 (7:09 pm)

My baby Bichon puppy chewed the button on the emergency brake. The blank leather around the button has teeth marks. I need to replace the damaged tip of the handle. Who, how, what and where? Any ideas?

#53 of 513 Changer for 99 EX head unit by alexjs

Mar 20, 2003 (5:24 pm)

I've got the stock head unit in my Civic and I'm finally gonna add a CD changer (mounted preferably in the trunk). Two questions:
 
1 - which changers will work with this unit? I've heard the Alpine CHM-600 would do the trick, but how about later models like the 620 or 630?
 
2 - out of curiosity... who makes the head units? Alpine? Blaupunkt?
