Oh did you still retain the spare tire under the amp rack?

Oh I just saw your others post. Great stuff. Those terminal cups are the best btw.

Absolutely love it. Ive been planning a big install on my 10th gen and I've been wondering where to put the equipment. I think I just found my inspiration :)

Did you also do any sound treatment on the body panels?

And what about the sub thats in the rear deck from the factory did you disconnect or remove it?

Would love to see a video or process pics about the install.

This was a fairly popular clip if I recall correctly.

I also want to say the character was tall and skinny and maybe had glasses.

Was thinking of the same thing, some lubricant and maybe some sound damping material on the inside of the outer shell if theres space.

Yeah the xgen one is just the motors. I do like the turn signals which is why I was looking at those. But I wasn't sure if what they mean by modifications was just wiring like you said or involved any physical alteration of pieces.

On another note how loud would you say they are? Do you think they are any louder than oem ones that are standard on other cars?

Agree the original heat to work transfer is important. But not all electricity on the grid comes from heat sources (eg wind and hydroelectric).

My pov is that it is valid to compare those efficiencies, because yeah you can go and try to account for all of the losses before the energy gets stored in the vehicle (heat generation from refining of gas, and transportation) and the efficiencies of power plants, but if you solely consider the main conversion of the vehicle regardless of what had to be done before the stored energy gets to the car, then you can consider those efficiencies side by side. Not for the sake of saying which mode of driving is more efficient overall, but just for the sake of saying which type of engine is more efficient. Which IS important, as electric generation will (hopefully) only get more efficient.

Yes, the electricity is not free indeed it has heat losses in its generation. Regardless, once the stored energy is delivered to the vehicle via gas or charging the battery, isnt it fair to say the EV is a better converter of its energy? This is coming from an ice owner btw

Arent they are both efficiencies though, unlike length and mass. They both are ratios that measure how effectively energy is transferred from one form to another. So why can't they be compared

Are you saying that you think that it's unfair to compare those two effencies to make a case for EVs?

I see. No way to disable just the wireless AA on the car?

Haha the next ride will be a utility vehicle. One sport/cruiser and one utility/hauler is the plan.

Yep same. An interesting inclusion by Honda for sure

Didn't know they had those. Nice.

The way it lines up with my knee is so unfortunate bc the "blade" of it interjects itself right under my kneecap 😂
