New here. Just saying Hi.

Hi all, purchased a 07 SI off ebay. It was delivered today. I won't be able to drive it till Friday when I register it.

Couple questions, this car has Nav but the DVD is missing, anyone know of a place other than Honda to purchase it?

Also back of the rear rockers it has some paint coming off, yeah undisclosed damage from seller, does the HFP side skirts wrap into the fender well and cover the last inch or so on the rockers? Figured why repair it if I can upgrade with skirts and cover it. The rear is the location of the damage on both sides, wasn't happy about it to say the least.

Thanks all, looking forward to searching and learning about this wonderful car.

Rob

Welcome... u're a brave one. I dindt know people buy cars off ebay too. Too bad you can't pack it up, ship it back, and ask for for a new one

I dont know much about the HFP skirts and I dont have the Nav model but maybe someone can enlighten u on that

Welcome to the 8th...not sure about the HFP, but Im sure some of the guys with it installed can help. And you can always check ebay for that part your looking for.

the hfp kit covers all painted parts up so high on the side i wanna say 6 inches or so up and your local dealer can order the disc i dont know if one can be burned from another but it may be cheaper they are around 150 bucks i believe

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome. Hasn't been the smoothest transaction. No Bill of Sale slow response to emails etc.They do have the Nav DVD and the owners manual,they also offered 200 bucks for paint repair.

Yeah it was kind of a shocker when they accepted my best offer. I paid 18450 for it. Good deal, guess it will depend on how much it costs to fix the rocker. When I get back I will try to post pics. Raining to hard for that at the moment.

Been away from Honda's since 85, had a brand new CRX SI back then great car. Switched to Nissan Sentra SE-Rs and NX2000 old school classics 91-94, wouldn't touch the new ones though.

The Navigation DVD is $185 and can be ordered here:
https://store.alpine-usa.com/Hondadv.../naviorder.php

If you opt for the body kit, use touch up paint anyway because you want to make sure it doesn't get rusty on you (especially were plastic touches metal or can trap moisture).

Welcome aboard and post some pictures (before and after).
