Modifications
I am going to do some modifications to my Civic's interior.
- Add 3rd 12V Plug. This will be located on the back of the center console for rear passengers to plug in their Gameboys and DVD players...
- 4 USB ports on dash board to allow Blackberry, Palm Treo and other USB powered devices to charge.
- Civic in India has a passenger light on the rear headliner. Will be adding this option to both sides of the car for personal lighting for passengers.

Re: Modifications
I wouldn't do most of the modifications if Honda would just keep up with other manufactures. Honda is so worried about effecting Accord sales that they lose customers going to another manufacture anyway...
Don't get me wrong, I think the Civic is a nice looking car, but some people are looking for more than looks.

Haha. Yah. That would be EXTREMELY useful for my ipod and iphone. Especially since my charger just broke. Now I have to use a power inverter and then use the ipod's power converter to bring it back to 12V. This wastes a lot of energy and produces a lot of heat and takes up a lot of space.

The 4 port USB hub is mounted below the direct TPMS monitor. Yep, pretty useful all right.

Re: Modifications
I am thinking about mouting it either at the top of the center console or under the dash where the center LED is located.
If I do the center console, I will be cutting into the plastic just enough to make it flush mount.

Re: Modifications
If you get a center/shift console bezel from an EX-L, there is a punchout there for the heated seat switches. You could get a square 4 port hub and make a small bezel to mount it there. This is in the little rectangular tray just below the shifter.
