Phew, luckily I did not find anything else I wanted to buy

Really want to find some type of "organizer" for the trunk area... something I can store my jumper cables, tow rope, tool box, oil, etc in w/o it being "in your face" thru the back window.

I would eventually like to get a "cargo area cover" - pulls out and hides everything, but they are something like $150. And I am going to want "fitted" Fit rubber mats for winter I am so easy to shop for, someone needs to tell Tom how lucky he is

Have to post my "mister good deals" deal of the day

My new car came w/o an owners manual so I looked on ebay... it used to be that you could find anything new or used on ebay, now it's mostly all new stuff at a supposedly discounted rate.

I found one used owners manual - "severely water damaged but readable" - $20 plus shipping - no deal... found a new set at $65 plus shipping, not a chance.

Then started looking at other options, including a PDF version - for just $6... sounded like a good deal - I read the description - after you pay we'll email you a link to download your file...

OK, so the geek in me kicks in and thinks, well it must be out there on the web if they are going to send me a link... started looking around online and sure enough - got the download for free courtesy of someone on FitFreak web site.

So now I have the "high tech" version of my owners manual. Not quite as nice as having one in the glovebox but for now it will let me read up on things I should know about the car. And someday when I see a decent used on for sale for $10 I will buy it!

Glad you did not pay for it Ellen. That is a scam, please report them. I know for a fact that owners manuals for the S2000, Accord and my 08 Si are out there available to be downloaded for free. Based on what you said, I think all Honda owners manuals must be available online.

I think Honda also provides it you for free if you sign up for the Honda Owner Link on their website.

I know I have it. I just have to find it. Haven't unpacked all the car stuff since we moved to the new place.

FTR, I had a leak, driver side and had the repair done under warranty. They ordered a new seal for me, but once I got there they said they did not need to replace it and repaired it. They gave me the rubber seal they ordered for me to keep.

PM me your address and I will ship it out to you as and when I get a chance.

That's a pretty clever commercial.

Heel & toe in the Frontier while wearing boots does not work well
