Just 3rd gen so far. I'll need to get a 120 series one of these days so I can go to town on that platform.

Can always make mine available for R&D for you. Just putting that out there.

Here is the post from my build thread from when I upgraded mine.
Chose all the brightest "cool white" LEDs from Diode Dynamics. Will add door lights and backup lights from them later.

Lake Wylie. Work in Charlotte. I'm buddies with Austin who I think may have helped you out in the past before he sold his 4th.

would anyone here be interested in some practically new weather tech floor mats in black. Driver, passenger, 2nd row and rear cargo. $225 shipped
How do you like the pioneer radio? Where did you purchase the ccd camera. Looks great though.

Digging the pioneer radio. Got it primarily for the Apple Play and it does the job very well. Screen is nice and crisp and touch screen is flawless.
As for the camera i'll attach a link below. It didn't really line up exactly with the existing holes but i was able to angle it to make it work. The view isn't the best but it does what I need it to do, provide a view for when i'm hooking up the trailer.

Just some pics from my adventure today...

Judging by your pic id recommend changing out those gas tank straps. I just did mine. The rear was broken in half. A lot easier to do if 1 is still in OK shape.

Hopefully they won’t stay too shiny for too long lol
Good advice. I was thinking about that as I was underneath greasing the rear of the driveshaft. Imagining one wrong move and it falling on me! haha
I'm sure more will pop up over time. 16 years and not a lot of maintenance but I take care of my cars so everything will get done at some point.

Took me longer than I planned but it got done!
Decided not to adjust them any higher than how they were out if the box just yet and I also decided to do away with the sway bar

Right on! I'm in the same boat. I've only owned mine for about 3 months and the amount of work I have done due to previous owners neglect was more than I anticipated. But I have done a lot of fun upgrade work too. Working on them is half the fun right?
The straps aren't too bad. My front one was still OK so that made it easier. Although, I didn't know it was OK until i started removing the last bolt from the skid plate and the tank didn't start to come down with it. Do it with a near empty tank and it shouldn't be too bad. I only had to torch one bolt LOL. Always fun near a plastic gas tank
Cheers

I'm a few weeks in myself and doing everything I can until I get it on the road. Its no 18 Honda pilot lmao Although believe it or not even with all the worn out suspension components this thing had a nicer ride then my new car!
Working on them is fun... JK I'm remembering why I hate cars! lol I went a got a compressor but if I had a lift it would be easier for sure.
I filled the tank on the trip home so wont be doing it yet! and yeah torch near gas is going to be interesting but id rather not break any bolts!
When I was heating up the bolt on the last sway bar link I held it there so long that the gas tank skid plate was getting hot! oops lol
