Thanks to those who send positive feedback on my last post. My CR-V
is 5 days old and I now have 560 miles on it. Latest mileage was
23+. Not a bad breakin mileage. Most, about 3/4 of mileage was on
interstate often at 85-90.

First a complaint:
They have replaced "4th pedal" with a flat area on mat. "4th pedal"
is where you rest you left foot when driving. Thinking of cutting a
piece of 4x4 on an angle to provide support. Especially will need
for autocrossing.....Just kidding.

The odometer has a bonus. 1st it is digital, and besides the
odometer it has 2 independent resettable trip odometers. I always
wanted to keep track of a trip but did not want to mess up my gas
mileage check. Now I have both worlds. Far out.....Oops I am
showing my age.

I earlier said the brakes were a bit mushy. They seems to have
seated and work extremely fine now.

I love the sun/moonroof. My 97 had a pop up. No comparison. This
is awesome.

I have created an Album of my EX at the CR-V YahooGroups site. It
was fairly easy to do and I encourage others to do the same. I think
you will especially enjoy the shots of the wood dash. About $148.00
from H and A. BTW the roof rack is simple to install. My dealer
wanted $400.00+

Have removed rear taillight lens housing and lo and behold there is a
circle molded in the bottom of the housing, below b/u lights. It is
perfect for adding a socket for towing behind motorhome. Will report
more on this after installation.

Well that's my 2 cents worth. Still hoping to wire fog lights to
work whenever tail lights on.

Did your EX come with the "H" insert in the center of the spare (see
photo number 4)? Mine only had styrofoam.

I bought the "H" insert Hub Cap for center of spare from H and A
Accessories. It cost about $24.00. You need to eMail them for part
number as it is not in their on line catalog. They are at:

Interesting there have been a few posts inquiring as to the round
black styrofoam thing, often found in the cup holder. I found mine
in the center of the spare when I removed the cover. Appparently
some mechanics remove it and put it in the console area.

Tomorrow I plan to make a 4th pedal out of a 4" X 4" cut on an angle.
