Accord CL9 New Owner's Thread

[Rahat083144]

Yeah AliExpress is a bit of risk, that's why we aren't ordering from there for the past months or so. My wife has just placed a small trial order to check. I need more sound insulation too.

Yes they connected the screen to the reverse gear so it comes on automatically. Again, I wouldn't recommend the screen I have, its hideous. Best to get a rear view Android mirror instead.

Hi, All

Anyone in the group selling a CL9 these days? Preferably a Type S cruise control would be cherry on top. Or anyothers (T/TL) would do too. Im not looking for a car full of options (that would be bonus).

The car should be mechanically in good condition. I plan to initially to buy it as a spare car, night drives etc. Dont plan to keep it as a daily driver since I goto places I cant take her.

[chinyoti]

Came across another pretty one today. Will get it touch with the owner tomorrow.

This car is no doubt beautiful but I guess the asking price is way too high.
It's been on sale for at least 2 months now.

[chinyoti]

I agree 18.50 Is rather on the higher side. Maybe it's a type S. But the rims are after market euro R ones.

What would you suggest a decent price tag for a exceptional car. The 12 lack ones are all money pits.

[sameerulhaq064]

I gave up on searching accords long ago since I never came across a good one.
According to me, a clean CL9 should fetch at least 15-16 lacs. If the car is really eye candy, all original, low mileage with loads of features only then around 17-18 is acceptable.

[chinyoti]

I have been very much against old cars. Maintenance and mechanical time they spend.

I had been saving for a Altis 1600 or a yaris. But looks at the recent price hike. 27 for a 1500 cc AT City, I really can't think of anything else but keeping WagonR for daily use. And look for a nice set of wheels for a night drives. CL9 checks all boxes. But yes everything available in the market is very much abused. I guess one cant find a premio in this price bracket. I guess il have to stretch 15-16 for a eye candy type of a car.

[sameerulhaq064]

Why not look for a 8th gen Civic?

[chinyoti]

Not sure, probably never considered it,

This is my friend's ex car that I was talking about. Superior to my car in pretty much every way. Must check it out at least.

[chinyoti]

Yes that's the plan. I have filtered out 2 cars for tomorrow. The grey one and this one. Will visit check out both the cars. Will then make up my mind.

[sameerulhaq064]

You can always keep this option as a backup if you don't find a clean CL

[chinyoti]

Definitely a good option,

Hello
I just bought a CL7 (wasn't in a good condition though) but due to current situation I thought I might be able to spend some time on it.
Anyways I got it for around 10,50,000 pkr (non accidented car) planning to get it sprayed by JW MOTORS after eid.

Perks (isb registration, sunroof, heated seats, electric seats and beige interior)
Just swapped it's old engine as previous engine had low compression, I wanted to gather up some interior goodies like console paneling, any clues from where can I find it? Secondly I'm getting an error on sat nav saying 'please insert disc' is it some known error, it can be fixed? As a guy claimed that it can be fixed by putting up an original DVD boot disc or shall I wait for a while and change original nav with Android panel or I am also getting a Clayton panel (made for Acura / Accord) it's an original panel but I don't know if it's good or not. As I'm a music freak already have Rockford and Bose speakers ready (no subwoofer) so I was wondering which option is better though.
I'm also trying to find Euro-R lights, front and back bumpers...
One last question is can I fit dual exhaust system on my CL7 k20?

Thanks in advance!

[Rahat083144]

The panels will be found in junkyards like Shershah, Bilal Gunj. Yes the Navi error can be fixed by inserting the boot disc. Chinese Android panels available in the market will compromise sound quality, though I'm not sure about the sound quality of Clayton panels. These aftermarket entertainment panels are targeted towards non Navi models so if you swap your Navi with these you will get a panel gap on top and will lose some functions too.

What are Euro R lights? I'm not sure about dual exhaust but I guess it should be easy because I can't imagine any differences between CL7 and CL9 that might hamper their installation.

[viking85]

Good to hear about your proj. Keep us posted with pics if possible.

[Mujtaba8991]

Okay.
So I just searched a bit and Clayton panel provides every single option which comes in stock navigation plus it got more juice than stock one. I'll study more about it and will share my knowledge.
Secondly found a pair of euro r headlights (euro r headlights are different from CL7 or CL9 Headlights)

I was more concerned about the exhaust system. Anyways thanks for the reply.

[Rahat083144]

You mean these headlights?
