Bakflip G2 It’s more on the expensive side . But I really like the cover . It’s well made . And could not imagine having the truck without the cover.

Yes, I’ve definitely seen the price on that one! It looks awesome though.

Glad you enjoyed. Hope it’s also working for you. Thank you for feedback Thai keeps me going on making more videos .

Will do . Hasn’t bothered me enough yet that water gets in .

yes I think your right. i could not used them , my seat is all the way back.

@@gdm_crx8513 Yeah, I never bothered. I'm 6'1". I still have my '00 white/red. I've had it for 23 years!

Thank you. Good information. I did figure out the plug , but I did not know about the brush . I ended up unscrewing the brush .

@@gdm_crx8513 84192-S2A-J00 and 84142-S2A-J00 are the part numbers for the brushes when using the hardtop brackets. They are still available through Honda at the moment if you wanted to pick them up.

No, they fit on OEM holes. How ever the current trunk lid did had this same spoiler installed at some point, by the previous owner.

It's Honda take car of them they take car of you. I still got 50k to go on mine to even reach that, hopefully you able to drive many more miles .

Yeah . I lived in Florida for a long time . 70 mph We currently overseas in Europe. But always wanted to test that but was to scared on the highway to get a big ticket . And 40 mph over might not be a good idea

Yes it’s worth it. I like it a lot. Very durable for every use.

I owned different truck and vans . I always wanted to own a Ridgeline since the 1. Came out . My only regret is I waited so long . Sadly I know this guy here will stay in Europe . And when I’m back in the states I’m on a hunt for a new one .

Sorry to hear that . Hope you get an other one. Best Truck I ever had. Super reliable!

@ I’m on the hunt for another one

Ja ist er . Lass ihn wie er ist. Und genieße damit zu fahren. Habe den hier ohne Motor gekauft , deswegen der Umbau . Und wollte das auch schon immer mal machen . Ist Hammer geworden

It’s around 30% front windows tinted. Sadly I can’t tell you exactly the Previous owner did that . Windshield is not tinted.

Figment is perfect . I can’t complain . Would buy again from them .

No they do not stop the soft top. I take the hard top off from time to time and just use the soft top. no problems. But I have ti get me a 2. set of front locks.

Fumes wasn’t to bad. But yeah when you do this kind of job you should had a mask .

yeah its worth it, I really like the back flip cover .

Yeah that was my plan . Haven’t gotten the chance to get it done. Also looking for a bottom tray that all the ones have without navigation. The headliner , I spoke to someone they redid there’s and said it was very easy. But that definitely is a project for some other time .

Thank you. Learning experience. All my other videos no Music ! Still hope it helped.

Gut. Muss jetzt nur noch die Autos hier rüber bekommen .

@@gdm_crx8513 👍

Did it come with the bracket?

Yes it does , the only thing you need to take of the OEM soft top are the latches .

yeah I know , but I wanted to see what the top speed is and how the truck handles. I handles better than the CRX or S2000 at those speeds, very smooth I was impressed. even took a lap on the Nürburgring with the Ridgeline.

My video review after 10k. It’s holding up great , about to do an other one with the liner . ( new video without the Musik ) So far , wood , metal , car parts , pavers , normal use . No problems at all . What I really like on it . It keeps things from sliding forward during normal driving .

It’s nice to hear this update that’s it has been holding up great after 9 or 10 months of use.

You're welcome!

Thank you I try my best . Did o say rope. 😂 But at least someone is watching my videos . And I hope they are helpful.

It’s has a Herculiner on it . I wanted it to be rough. To keep stuff from sliding forward. Really like the liner . I had to do something because mine was in rough shape .

Yeah wanted to. Possibly just do a black respray on them .

Did not know that . It would fit a full size but great information. I used Herculiner . Love it . No more sliding nothing . Liner holds up great 👍🏻.

🤘🏻thank you

I don’t understand your question?

I was curious too why remove all of those parts. What considerations were made to decide which pieces stayed with tape and which pieces removed. What’s the advantages and disadvantages (of course extra work is big disadvantage)

@@dan-777-abc I wasn't not sure how good or bad this will be, rolling on paint can be messy. so for me it was like take of what I can. I didn't know at the time how to get the gate cover or the side panels off , but I do know now. if I do it again maybe I take everything off and lay it down flat. but it worked fine with the blue tape as well, but take it of immediately after painting, to ensure a nice clean line.

They work good . But sadly only in the states. And worthless here in Europe .

Ja die müssen weg und was anderes !

Tried to show things up close . So you can see what I’m doing . But thank you . I try to improve this in my videos . Still hope it help with your install .

Thank you ! I just tried to copy what others do. Blame TH-cam for the awful music that's what was free. Sadly since I added it it can't be removed anymore. Im Trying to improve my videos, hopefully you checked out the channel and see that.

Yes. Big difference. No more things sliding forward. I did 2 coats. The more coats you apply the more rough the surface gets . Of course if you break heavy things will slide. But I’m very happy with the product.

I did use the OEM latches that are on the soft top. How ever if you take the hardtop of the soft top can’t be locked in anymore . So I recommend getting a 2. Pair . One for the soft top and one for the hardtop . I did install the quick release rear latches. So I can take of the top sometimes .

You welcome. 🤗 Part of a learning experience making these videos . Sadly I don’t get enough feedback to improve my videos.

Mine just started this randomly . And the tailgate not working sideways is just painful. Lol a feature you get used to very fast .

Thank you so much 😀

@@gdm_crx8513 welcome my brother

Thank you

@@gdm_crx8513 welcome my brother

Go for it . At least you have some information for your build . If you need extra help instagram GDM_CRX Message me there. If I look back at mine and I would had all the parts up front for the build . You possibly have it up and running in a week . But a lot of time goes by ordering parts and figuring out what to use . It’s a lot of work . But hopefully worth it. I got mine running as of this week . Hanging behind on the videos from the build. But I try to upload one at least per week . With the parts that I got and were to buy . And hope that will help you with your build .

@@gdm_crx8513 cool man. yeah information is worth its weight in gold with these swaps. your videos will deff. help! 🙏

Thanks 🙏

@@gdm_crx8513 welcome my brother

I think that the EE8 are a lil bit different of other ef chasis haha

Yes I spoke to hasport. The mounts are for ef/ed crx only . Not for EE /Si . Maybe they will make on one day but as of now they never had a chassis to produce one . EE8 here in Europe has a b16a engine (v-tec) OEM parts were motor mounts sit are different. Therefore hasport mounts don’t fit . The few k20 that exist here in Europe I spoke to them and they did the same or similar . Not everyone used the same mounts . One of my earlier videos I do explain the difference. I was not aware of this myself when I started the project . If my solution is the correct one we will see when I get the car rolling.

Thank you , trying my best . I have 2 more for the top , the stand and oem rear catcher bracket . Were I take it all apart again . To the top . Love it it’s holding up great. Need to do some more s2000 content but trying to get the crx done at this time .

@@gdm_crx8513 I’ll be waiting for new videos to come out. 👍

Yes , caught on fire during the 2024 24hour race Nürburgring.

Did not fit. Was 3/4 short on Passenger side . Not sure why. Because EE8 ? Maybe the driveshafts I got were not ep3 ? Even I was told they were.

Also the dc5 axles will work but you need the karcepts hubs or yonaka 36mm hubs like type r to fit these axles. You can also watch youngstatic on TH-cam he is a ef crx guy like us that swaps k swap all day

I do follow him . My biggest thing is that I did not find anyone that . Step by step instructions how to do it . And if they did they don’t tell you what parts and where to get them from . That’s why o started this. But because I’m constantly waiting on parts my step my step is messed up to and I continue on other sections. Basically when it’s all done you have the information on all parts that needed or could be . My 10k build is already at 16k just from basic parts that I did not had or were not included in the engine purchase.

Also youngstatic works on ef chassis. The EE8 v-tec is different many parts don’t fit . Like engine mounts need to be modified .
