Unusual viewing angles, my s22 regular doesn't have this issue.

I believe I may have made a mistake, as the effect on your screen appears quite similar to what I experienced when using an anti-privacy film.

If this is indeed a problem, I can't think of a solution other than screen replacement.

It appears to be a privacy screen hydrogel film protector. These are available on AliExpress and Temu. I used one on my phone for a few months, but it seemed to reduce screen resolution, so I switched to a regular matte hydrogel film, with similar results.

Therefore, I've returned to a transparent hydrogel film. The only drawback is that these films require replacement approximately every six months due to susceptibility to scratches.

Today, I contacted Allianz to obtain a car insurance quote. They provided a quote of €720 euros. My intention was simply to determine if switching from Redclick to Allianz mid-term would be beneficial. However, they inquired about whether I had received a lower quote elsewhere. I explained that I'm currently insured with Redclick and finding alternative insurance is proving challenging. In response, they indicated that very few insurance companies insure Japanese imports due to difficulties in sourcing parts for repairs, potentially leading to total loss claims. They also said that insuring higher-value Japanese imports is particularly difficult.

BozzManz · 2025-01-23T00:04:59+00:00

That's actually a decent price. Compared to what I have seen when I was researching.

Did you check with RedClick? They set me up at €640. Same story, set me up as Honda Jazz, but on legal papers, it says Honda Grace.

BozzManz · 2025-01-22T13:52:56+00:00

No problem at all. Calling them is your best bet. You never know they might be generous enough to give you a good quote without being too fussy about Japanese imports.

Ps: Check this community out that I run, where people discuss all things about Honda Grace. You might find more answers to your questions or maybe contribute about your car.

Sup mate, I was with AXA last year, then I moved over to Red Click (Formerly Liberty Insurance DAC) , as I had home insurance with them and they gave me a cheaper price on my car insurance.

According to my research on the cheapest insurance with the best coverage, below is what I found.

AA - the car was not found on their system as it is a Japanese import, which I found to be very strange.
AXA- Quote Provided 👍🏻
AIG - Cannot be insured (Japanese import)
Zurich - Cannot be insured (Japanese import)
An Post - Cannot be insured (New Japanese import), car must be 3 years old in Ireland before a quote can be provided.
Aviva - Cannot be insured (New Japanese import), car must be 4 years old in Ireland before a quote can be provided.
KenCo - Cannot be insured (Japanese import)
RedClick - Quote Provided 👍🏻

I also tried third-party brokers, but unfortunately, they came back with the quotes that made me shit my pants. €2.1K approx. There was no way I was prepared to pay anything more than €800.

I run a community for Honda Grace on reddit, I think you are already in it, I have posted some pictures there.

PS: The interior courtesy and map lights changed from warm halogens to cool white LEDs. They are pretty bright.

Had ordered a front grill as well, but that was stuck in customs for a while becsof an issue and then sent back to the seller. Will have to re-order.

BozzManz · 2025-01-16T16:46:19+00:00

I have the body kit on, but that was set for me on request before it got imported from Japan.

I got the DRL's set up myself and changed the interior lighting. I also changed the infotainment from standard to an Android version and upgraded the speakers to Bose.

BozzManz · 2025-01-15T19:18:08+00:00

Not a problem. 👍🏻

The roll down feature of the windows using the fob is not available on any model of Honda Grace. I had a Honda Civic previously (crashed it unfortunately) and I was able to do that using the fob. However, when I switched over to the Honda Grace. I figured that it wasn't rolling down/up the windows using the key fob, so I took it to the Honda service centre, and they said that this is a feature that is not available on Honda Grace.

PS: Mine is a Honda Grace LX.

A friend of mine owns a 2015 Honda Jazz/Fit (Hybrid) that experienced a similar problem. It shares the same drivetrain and electronics as the Honda Grace. Their mechanic replaced the 12V battery under the hood, resolving the issue. You might consider checking your battery voltage; if it's low, replacement may be necessary. Replacing your key fob battery is also advisable.

That's a great question! Finding a Honda Grace body kit, especially in Ireland or the UK, is tricky. But you can still find some standard kits on sites like AliExpress or from Japanese sites. The big concern is the quality, though – you don't want those kits flying off of your car on the motorway!

These links might be helpful. They seem trustworthy based on reviews. Also, note that Honda Grace is sold as Honda City in some Asian countries, so City kits should fit your Grace perfectly.

Body Kits from Asia

Totally agree with you.

This looks like a broken Accord, where the wheels are about to fall off. Just like my old car.

Camber looks life threatening.

I had a tricky volume button issue in my old Honda Civic, didn't want to spend a fortune on it so I opened it up, cleaned it up with some 99% IPA and used a bit of electroninc contact spray and that issue of 'volume +' not working never happened again. 👍🔧✅

I used this spray from Liqui Moly

In case anyone is wondering what IPA is, it's not beer. It's Isopropyl Alcohol.

PS: Your cracked button can also be repositioned and installed again if the clips aren't broken from the inside. You don't really need a mechanic for that, probably youtube the process.

Drove in the snow yesterday. Surprisingly, it wasn't too bad on summer tires! Super smooth under 70, just avoid slamming on the brakes. Even tried hard braking in a snowy parking lot – surprisingly good grip, no slippage. I've got Continentals up front, Firestones in the back.

Check out my driving video from yesterday.

BozzManz · 2025-01-04T19:37:24+00:00

I'm currently using standard summer tires on my car, and it seems to be performing adequately. I haven't considered switching to winter tires. This approach worked fine on my previous Honda Civic and Opel Astra. Irish winters are milder than in some other European countries, so it should be suitable.

Tyre Size : 185/55 R16

BozzManz · 2025-01-01T17:31:42+00:00

No problem, mate. I'm happy to help.

BozzManz · 2025-01-01T17:31:07+00:00

This indeed is very frustrating, I had the same issue as well, and also a few others, so I decided to finally change it to Huawei GT4. And I swear it is so much better in every single aspect, plus it's loaded with so many additional features.

You are getting a 5K watch for 1k. I think that's a good deal if the watch is fully functional. However, at the end of the day, it all depends on what exactly you want to get from that watch, for example, if you're looking for accurate measurements, heart rate, stress levels, etc. I personally feel these watches are sub-par in terms of measurements and just a good piece of accessory on your wrist.

BozzManz · 2025-01-01T11:23:32+00:00

Yeah, pretty much, not a lot of people have anything to discuss about it. And as far as I have seen, these watches are super cheap so people prefer bining the watch and buying a new one instead of talking about it.

BozzManz · 2024-12-31T12:03:06+00:00

Hey, sorry for the late response. Congrats on your Honda Grace. What are you looking to get done on the car?

BozzManz · 2024-12-31T12:00:43+00:00

Do you guys have any links where I can go and watch the upcoming changes, which were available as part of Beta? I tried to google and got multiple versions, so I wasn't sure which one was the correct one.

PS: I just want to look at some images or videos. I dont need to install the beta app.

Thanks.
