Before purchasing my FR-V, I had a Honda Jazz. I was very satisfied with the Honda brand and immediately fell in love with the FR-V model. However, at that time, it was too big for just me. A few years later, after the birth of three sons (now four! :)), I needed a larger car. I quickly found a great second-hand deal through a friend who owned a Honda garage. In 2010, I bought this two-year-old FR-V Executive for €12,000 (its original price with all options was over €36,000). What a bargain! I have never had any bad experiences with this car. It has been maintained every year by my father-in-law, who is a mechanic. The built-in GPS became outdated rather quickly, and the 6-CD changer broke because my 2-year-old son stuffed it full of coins. :) I have never caused an accident myself, but the car has been hit three times—luckily, it was always repaired. I also installed a Bluetooth receiver in the CD changer connection of the radio. I am still in love with this car, which has never let me down. With my four sons and my wife, we have enjoyed this car immensely. I hope to keep it for a long time. We have also taken some memorable trips with this car: - In 2015, we drove from Bruges (Belgium) all the way to Crete (Greece) in six weeks. - In 2017, we traveled from Bruges to Faro (Portugal) in seven weeks. - In 2018, we went from Bruges to Murcia (Spain) in seven weeks. - In 2019 and 2020, we drove from Bruges to Catania (Sicily, Italy). We bought a holiday home in Sicily, and since then, we haven't taken any long trips with the FR-V. Without those big trips, maybe I can keep my Honda even longer. :) This week, I had to take my car for inspection at the mandatory vehicle inspection service in Belgium. I was informed that the parking lights weren't working. Thanks to your website, I found the right way to replace them myself. What a fantastic website you have! Thank you for your guide and tips. I really enjoyed seeing that there are others who are also "married" to their car. 😊
I've put in a Bluetooth module and also the Navigation system -39810-SJD-E92-YR368L that is from Mitsubishi Electric of which I'm missing the connector at the back of the display. Highly appreciated if anyone can tell me where to find this part and its number.
