Footnote - I’m also on Continental UC6 on my Civic, and maintain 31PSI - 1 higher than factory recommended by Honda - at 32, I start to feel more of road imperfections filtering in.

Thank you. Yea, I follow your posts on the Kodiaq

Regarding video quality, definitely much better than even the Kodiaq I am skeptical on it's longevity though. Hopefully it stays like this.

Audio quality is good, but that alone won't be a good reason to upgrade, because I find it very close to the stock system. It does give some extra dsp options though, so kids love it.

On the tie pressure, based on yours and Cyborg 's input, I will try to have them at 30 and see how that goes.

Thank you Sarathlal for the picture. Will surely update you after my work gets done.

We all are a real trip
Just filled 32 PSI in my car to check your point of view. In limited driving so far found 32 to be quite ok, maybe due to the new tyre effect. Will drive a bit more and revert on this too.

Sumeet - I see you are always around Civic posts/conversations. You are never going to lose your love for the Civic. Private message me anytime if you would like to drive my car. You are welcome

Cheers

I too am 2009 Civic owner with odometer at 92k. First owner. Upgraded to Blaupunkt Santa Clara 10” with 360 deg camera last year. Happy with its overall performance except sensor missing gear shift from park to Drive occasionally. Changed tyres to Continental UC6 last month as well. Got leather seat covers all redone with little more cushion as my original one was showing faded colour and stiffer bottom. Got re-registration done just before its 15 years anniversary. Now it’s all ready for at least next 5 years if not more.
So far in 15years of its ownership, I had one engine mount issue causing unusual vibration when in reverse and AC intermittently turning off due to relay socket being loose. Besides regular maintenance cost, rest all just wear and tear issue like lower arm rubber cracking in front suspension, brake pad and disk replacement and tires replacement every 4-5 years.

Finally got a things done for my baby after procrastinating for quite a bit. Thank you Sarathlal for the information, impetus to get things done and using your thread for sharing.

Blaupunkt Jamaica 990 10.33 inch system. Fits perfectly, extremely fluid, quick connection to wireless Apple Car Play with a rear view camera. It’s got a provision to fit a 360 degree camera and lots of other things.

Door panel switch board > hydro dipped in gloss black.

Door panel hand rest, only top part in black leather.

All 4 doors and bonnet damped with Blaupunkt damping sheets. 3 per door and bonnet.

Initial impressions are very good with all of the above. Pictures below. Please ask if clarity is required on anything, will be happy to answer.















Cheers

Congrats on the new addition.
It gels in so beautifully that is quite like an OEM fitment
