Your Honda dealer has many
Genuine Honda Accessories that
allow you to personalize your car.
These have all been approved for
installation and use on your car, and
are covered by warranty.
Some non-Honda accessories you
can buy in the "aftermarket" are
designed for universal applications.
Although they may fit your Honda,
they may not be within factory
specifications. For example, after-
market wheels may not meet Honda's
specifications for width and offset.
They could cause suspension
problems which would not be
covered by your warranty. Im-
properly-designed accessories can
adversely affect your car's handling
and stability.
Your car has several computer-
controlled systems, including the
SRS system, the engine's fuel
injection, and the Anti-lock brake
system. Strong electronic inter-
ference can affect their operation.
Electronic communications equip-
ment, such as cellular telephones
and two-way radios are regulated by
the FCC (DOC in Canada) and
should not interfere with your car's
systems. Improper installation, or
using electrical equipment not in-
tended for mobile use may interfere
with your car's operation. If you want
to install a cellular telephone, other
mobile communications equipment
or even add-on stereo amplifiers,
please discuss it first with your
Honda dealer.
Accessories
In many cases, improper installation
is the real cause of problems with
aftermarket accessories. Have these
accessories installed by qualified
technicians who are familiar with
your Honda. If possible, have your
Honda dealer inspect the final
installation.
