That sounds good. I'm not big on beer, but if you were to bring tequila, we'd be in business ;) .. hehe, jk .. any kind of pizza is good :thmsup:

The 20th works .. a little mini-jersey meetup would be great. There's a highschool near my house with a nice, big empty parking lot

I do not care for Jersey and would much prefer Queens. With all the people who ragged on Paragon Honda, you'd think there are a few Accord owners in queens. :dunno: Tried to arrange for a meet at flushing meadow, but no one except shift 718 displayed any interest. I will have free time again the last week of December so please I would appreciate any feedback. I will also contact my dealership to see if they would sponsor a meet.

Ksills is organizing this meeting...however I think it is safe to say that...


EVERYBODY ON THIS FORUM IS INVITED!


Most people are wondering what this meet up is all about...what are we actually going to do?


We're going to talk about mods!
-Ways to improve car interior, exterior yadee yada...
-Actually... not EVERYBODY is invited. NO RICERS ALLOWED :wave:

EX: If you want to get tint and can't decide between 15%, 20%, or 35%... you can come and actually see what 15%, 20%,35% looks like from the inside!
I also have those weathertech floor liners... you guys can check them out to see if they're worth it :thmsup:


We're going to help each other with mods!
EX: Kopimon has already agreed to help me with my LED door sill installation

If you're having trouble installing HIDS, I'm pretty sure one of us can help you!

We're going to share secrets about our detailing methods!
EX: How to clay properly... how much quik detailer you really need to use...

We're going to eat!
EX: I'm planning on buying a whole pie of pizza for kopimon for being such a wonderful sport. Hopefully he'll share some with you :thmsup:

The service department is also going to show us around and answer questions

This meeting doesn't all need to be about cars. We finally get to see the face behind the names on this forum. We can socialize and make new friends. We're all going to be different ages, races, and genders... which will make things even more interesting!

People that are ALREADY interested in meeting up!

Keith, I have cc'd the rest of the service and parts management team from Huntington Honda in this message and ask you to include us all in any correspondance from the club members. We look forward to meeting with the crew from www.driveaccord.net next Saturday 1/17 at 5pm in Huntington Honda service department.

Craig,
Happy New Year! All I can say is WOW! A pleasure to meet you. Not sure exactly how Ray explained our conversation so I'll re state it to you. After buying my first ever Honda I decided to learn as much as I could about my new Accord and found an Accord owners forum, DriveAccord.net. I have learned a lot from the forum on the care and feeding of an Accord and wanted to give back as well. Members from other states seem to have successful meets, however, NY metro, not so much. So I had the idea to have Huntington Honda sponsor a meet, more interesting for forum members and the dealership alike. Have you already joined the forum? Hope to hear from you again,

Keith Sills


Craig is very into mods and Inspire parts. Hope the turn out is good because things can only get better.:thmsup:

1 hr 20 mins away from me is totally worth a meet. I will bring my pro camera equipment and shoot w/e people want. I think getting a dealership to sponsor these meets is the way to go. For next time, I will approach my local honda dealership to see if they are interested.

Can everyone that is interested in the meet up please PM me their name and contact info? NOTE: THIS IS COMPLETELY VOLUNTARY...
I'm going to make a full contact list to make sure no one gets lost or forget about the meeting. I'm probably going to give you guys a 2 hour early heads up call. This list will also allow us to know who won't be able to make it last minute.

I'm really excited about this meet up...

The service center at huntington honda is going to show us around.
Cubanoconhonda is going to bring his pro camera equipment to help us take photos.
Ace-BX-24 is working on a radio kit... we can all try to help him with that
Kopimon is going to help me with my door sill installation.
Shift 718 is going to install license plate LEDS. I can help him with that.
I might need help with my HID kit installation O.O

For the people still can't decide whether or not to go... think about this the following.


If you...

Can't decide how dark you want to tint your car?
Come and you can see what 15%, 20%, or 35% looks like from the interior or exterior to make your decision.

Can't decide what color you want your HIDs to be?
Come and you can see what 4300k, 5000k or 6000k looks like to make your decision

Can't decide if you want halos in your headlights?
Come and you can see how it looks like at night to make your decision

Can't decide if you want to do the autozone grille mod?
Come and you can see how it looks like to make your decision

Can't decide whether you want weathertech floor liners and if they're worth the money?
Come and you can see them inside our cars to make your decision.

Can't decide whether you want to put cathodes in your trunk?
Come and you can see how it looks like at night to make your decision

Can't decide whether you want to put LEDS in your interior lights?
Come and you can see them inside our cars to make your decision(Blue or White).

Can't decide whether or not to invest your money in Wetpaint?
Come and you can see us clean our car with wetpaint.

Can't find awesome people to become friends with?
Come and you'll find around 10+ new awesome friends

BASICALLY... COME! (that's what she said :naughty:) I seriously... can't wait.

Much less work and cost with HIR's and the output for Low Beams are about 150% to 175% of stock at the same wattage. You do have to be a contortionist to install (or find a younger person who is), but the result is worth the effort. My days of driving a clutch are behind me, but it's like riding a bike, you never forget. When I first started driving it was on a clutch because that's what my dad had. Three on the tree with an unsynchronized first gear. How many of you young wipper snappers know how to double clutch? :naughty: The other accessory that was installed in my car is a speed govenor called a "wife". Luckily she can be uninstalled periodicly. :nuts:

I'm going to make a full contact list to make sure no one gets lost or forget about the meeting. I'm probably going to give you guys a 2 hour early heads up call. This list will also allow us to know who won't be able to make it last minute.

I'm really excited about this meet up...

The service center at huntington honda is going to show us around.
Cubanoconhonda is going to bring his pro camera equipment to help us take photos.
Ace-BX-24 is working on a radio kit... we can all try to help him with that
Kopimon is going to help me with my door sill installation.
Shift 718 is going to install license plate LEDS. I can help him with that.
I might need help with my HID kit installation O.O

For the people still can't decide whether or not to go... think about this the following.


If you...

Can't decide how dark you want to tint your car?
Come and you can see what 15%, 20%, or 35% looks like from the interior or exterior to make your decision.

Can't decide what color you want your HIDs to be?
Come and you can see what 4300k, 5000k or 6000k looks like to make your decision

Can't decide if you want halos in your headlights?
Come and you can see how it looks like at night to make your decision

Can't decide if you want to do the autozone grille mod?
Come and you can see how it looks like to make your decision

Can't decide whether you want weathertech floor liners and if they're worth the money?
Come and you can see them inside our cars to make your decision.

Can't decide whether you want to put cathodes in your trunk?
Come and you can see how it looks like at night to make your decision

Can't decide whether you want to put LEDS in your interior lights?
Come and you can see them inside our cars to make your decision(Blue or White).

Can't decide whether or not to invest your money in Wetpaint?
Come and you can see us clean our car with wetpaint.

Can't find awesome people to become friends with?
Come and you'll find around 10+ new awesome friends

BASICALLY... COME! (that's what she said :naughty:) I seriously... can't wait.

How did those HID's work out? Did they help you aim them? BTW those oil filters represent a free oil change. In addition ALL DriveAccord.net members qualify for an employee discount on parts and service. All in all nothing short of a GREAT dealership!:banana::banana::banana:

The HID's worked out great. When they finished installing it, I parked my car facing a wall. Alex(cubanoconhonda), Nick(Kopimon), Ray (Accord8th) and I all agreed that the cut off was good. These were our observations in person. I drove for an hour home and nobody flashed me. I used a 35W 6000k kit.
*I had Alex help take photos so we can post it up on this forum for opinions
But honestly, I think a 55W 4300k would be a different story.

Oh yeah... btw guys, I had a chip on my sideview mirror come off and they helped me ordered the piece to replace it with an employee discount. :thmsup:

BTW the best mod I did at the meet... was changing the license plate frame that said Paragon Honda to Huntington Honda!

Hey, welcome to the forum. Ebay is a good start for parts. Post 6 of the 7th Gen FAQ (http://www.driveaccord.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5095) thread talks about common modifications. This thread (http://www.driveaccord.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1817) has a good list of OEM parts dealers.
