Retrofit and warranty issues?

bigmac02 · 02-17-2009, 12:13 AM

Would getting a retrofit void any warranty from honda on the car?

It will void anything dealing with your headlights, and anything in the electrical system if they can show that your retro had anything to do with it, like a short.

pretty much what he said. Only thing is, if you really have a problem and you're convinced it's not your retro... swap back in some OEMs.

in all this time that people have had retros
has there ever been a problem with shorting etc..?

^probably not. The reputable places that do retrofits
warranty their work so condensation proablem would be part
of their problem.

My dealer was selling a fg1 with retrofit that had 100k warranty.
