so, I tried installing a carbon dashboard in my 11th gen civic last weekend. honestly, it looked super cool in the pics, but man, it was a bit tricky. I thought I could just pop it in like Legos, but nope.
But the fit wasn’t perfect, and I ended up with extra screws. what do those even do? anyone else been there? I just wish I had a buddy nearby to help, you know. sometimes it’s all about teamwork, even if it’s just for car stuff.
I did my own carbon dash in my 11th gen Civic last summer in Michigan. Honestly it was kinda a pain but totally worth it. I’ve watched a bunch of YouTube tutorials and figured hey how hard could it be right.
Turns out you need tiny hands to get into those tight spots. In the end I got it done with a few scratches but now my interior looks super sleek. Go for it if you’re up for a challenge.
I’ve seen people tackle carbon dashboards in their 11th gens and it looks sweet. Used to do car mods in my garage back in Michigan.
Just gotta be careful with wiring and stuff. It’s a game changer but might get a bit tricky.
Ive done a DIY project like this on my cousin’s civic in Vancouver and it was a mess but fun. The carbon dashboard adds a nice sporty look. I have to warn you tho you might need a good set of tools and patience. Directions are usually vague. But if you love tinkering its def worth giving it a go. Just don’t expect it to be perfect on the first try.
I’ve tinkered with my Civic for years down here in Texas and the idea of a carbon dashboard is pretty tempting.
But honestly it sounds like a ton of work and maybe not for the faint of heart.
If you can handle DIY projects it could be worth it but if not maybe consider a pro to avoid any headaches.
I ve always loved the look of a carbon dashboard especially in my buddy’s Civic down in California. He did it himself and said it was easier than he thought.
But I’ve seen some horror stories too if you’re not careful it could go south real quick.
Ive been messing around with car interiors since high school in California. Installing a carbon dashboard sounds fun but also kind of tricky.
I have heard of some people struggling with the clips and adhesive. It might be worth checking out some tutorials first just to save yourself some headaches later. Hope it goes smoothly for you.
I installed a carbon dash on my 10th gen Civic in my garage in Michigan last winter so I’m thinking you can totally do it on the 11th gen too
Just watch some vids it helps a ton
I ve done some mods on my 10th gen in Toronto and let me tell you it took a lot of patience. The wiring might be tricky for the carbon dash but if you have the right tools it’s doable. Just make sure to follow a guide.
I remember my friend tried it and ended up in a mess with the airbag lights. Just saying you might want to doublecheck everything afterward. Good luck if you go for it.
Ive been working on cars for years and did the dashboard swap on my buddy’s Civic here in Toronto. It’s tricky but totally doable if you have the right tools. Just take your time.
That carbon look is slick though. Totally transforms the interior.
I had my buddy help me with my 11th gen civic dash and we ended up losing a few screws in the process. It was a mess but the carbon look is worth it
Just take your time and watch a couple of videos. If you’re decent with tools you’ll be fine. But if you have no experience maybe let a pro do it.
