2009 Accord Accessories by augustus12345

Hi -
 
I just purchased a 2009 Accord EX-L with Nav (4cyl). I was considering added splash guards and a rear deck lid spoiler (lip). I've also looked at the rear view camera, but before sinking more $$$ wanted to get anyone's experiences - e.g., was it "worth it" did it work - will it help resale etc? Any advice is helpful. Thanks

Hi -
 
anyone know if you can replace the bumper on a 2009 accord with a v6 bumper (sedan) to add the factor fog lamps to the 4 cyl?

I have the splash guards on my 06 and they've been well worth it for me. Some people feel they look good on some colors and not others (they blend in well on my Silver Accord). I like them a lot. They help quite a bit here in western Washington's rain.
 
Any type of spoiler will illicit many types of responses... some people hate them and some love them. It is best to go with your own personal preferences. I doubt it will help with resale because you will have the same preference issue. Of course, if it is a lousy installation, it will hurt resale.

Wouldn't it be easier and a lot cheaper to just buy the fog light kit?

It would - but have you seen the black fog lights They really look bad - even black on black - looks like a bad aftermarket part.

After Market sound System by c1v1c5360

I have a 2007 2dr Civic EX and a 2008 Honda Accord LX which i have upgraded both of the sound systems. My problem is, on my 07 civic of course you stand outside of the car and u can hear the trunk rattle and the inside sounds crystal clear! on the 08 accord same thing but i am getting a rattling noise that sometimes overpowers my sounds and might i add they both are running 2 12" subs with 1000 watt amps with 2 farad caps, but the accords rattle is mind boggling! i dynamatted as much as i could with out taking apart the back dash. Has anyone else had or have this problem? or even maybe a way to take apart the back dash so i can line it with spray foam or dynamat?
 
Thanks for any advice that is given!
 
and yes even the littlest hint or tricks or solutions would be great!

Are you sure it isn't the license plate rattling?

Sorry to hear that. I used to be able to hear my tag rattle when going over bumps. Had to tighten it and then I was rattle-free. Thought I'd mention it. Good luck rattle-hunting!

Just to chime in that some dealers do this. My first Accord (1993) I bought with the understanding they were putting in the CD changer and alarm. Come delivery day, it had a Sony aftermarket changer, and an Automate alarm - same price as the Honda ones, of course. Raised a stink, and they put in the Honda changer with the special trunk mount and the controls that replaced a cubby under the radio. Left the automate alarm, as it worked, but made a mental note for the future about spelling it out. This was a dealer near East Brunswick, NJ.
