This Volkswagen Touareg kit contains everything you need to swap your old, blacked-out projectors for powerful new bi-xenon projectors. Using the exact same mounting points, it makes retrofitting quick and easy. And, most importantly, it will take your Touareg to the next level - just check out the test pictures! This is way beyond what the majority of OEM projectors can achieve. The EvoX-R 2.0 is without a doubt the brightest bi-xenon projector our light meter has ever gauged, enabling you to use D1S, D2S, D3S and D4S OEM bulbs, including the most powerful options from Osram and Philips. You will literally outshine the competition. With available colour temperatures ranging from 3,000K to 6,000K, the crystal-clear 3.0-inch lens throws a wide low beam with a solid hotspot and sharp cutoff. As for the high beam? It’s like the sun. Such a light output would not be possible without efficient ballasts. If you’re happy with the ballasts that you’ve already got, simply leave them in place. Alternatively, add a set of our Aharon digital 35W ballasts to your order. Lastly, this kit provides every single part that you will need for retrofitting. In order to keep the price low, we have however assumed that you will keep your existing xenon bulbs. Depending on how old those are, you may want to also order a new set of bulbs to get the most out of your retrofitted system. Xenon bulbs do lose up to 70% of their maximum brightness over time.
A high-efficiency converter mounts directly to the exhaust port of the cylinder head for extremely rapid converter activation after engine startup. All the Honda Accord's engines make use of friction-reducing technologies designed to improve engine efficiency. The outer skirts of lightweight aluminum pistons feature a low-friction coating applied in a unique pattern. The result is reduced overall friction as the pistons move within the cylinder bores. Plateau honing further lowers the friction level between the pistons and the cylinders by creating an ultra-smooth surface. Plateau honing is a 2-stage machining process that uses two grinding processes instead of the more conventional single honing process. This also enhances the long-term wear characteristics of the engine. Low viscosity oil (0W-20) also reduces friction. Other contributors to overall operating efficiency are a special 2-stage oil pump relief valve, low-friction oil seals, special low-drag piston ring design, low-friction cam chain and a lightweight crankshaft. All three Accord engines are engineered for low emissions, and are certified to their respective level of emissions performance for 120,000 miles. The first tune-up includes water pump inspection, valve adjustment, and the installation of new spark plugs.
To eliminate unnecessary service stops while ensuring that the vehicle is properly maintained, the Accord has a Maintenance Minder system that continually monitors the vehicle's operating condition. When maintenance is required, the driver is alerted via a message on the Driver Information Interface (DII). The Maintenance Minder system monitors operating conditions such as oil and coolant temperature along with engine speed to determine the proper service intervals. Depending on operating conditions, oil change intervals can be extended to a maximum of 10,000 miles, potentially sparing the owner considerable expense and inconvenience over the life of the vehicle. The owner-resettable system monitors all normal service parts and systems, including engine oil and filter, tire rotation, air-cleaner, transmission fluid, spark plugs, engine coolant, brake pads and more. To reduce the potential for driver distraction, maintenance alerts are presented only when the ignition is first turned on, not while driving. The all-new 2018 Honda Accord boasts a larger, more premium and tech-savvy interior that compliments its elegant new body design and more refined and athletic driving character.
The new Accord's wider body and longer wheelbase contribute to its improved cabin space, most notably an additional 1.9 inches of rear legroom, as well as an added 2.5 cu. 0.9 cu. ft. of trunk space. The more spacious cabin and trunk moves Accord into the EPA Large Car class, despite its shorter, more compact and sporting exterior form, the result of Honda's packaging expertise and "Man-Maximum, Machine Minimum" design philosophy. The new cabin is highlighted by a new ultra-low-profile, three-tiered instrument panel, an intricately contoured sport steering wheel, a new color TFT digital driver's meter and a "floating" 8-inch Display Audio touchscreen. Meticulous attention to the tactile and visual quality of materials elevates the overall premium feeling of the cabin. The 2018 Accord interior sets a new class standard, with a clean, open and premium look and feel. The new soft-touch instrument panel features a 3-tier design with a prominent upper deck that arcs from its outboard section through the side doorsills, creating a sense of safety and security. The front seats have been moved slightly inward compared to the previous generation Accord to contribute to enhance occupants' freedom of movement.
The rear seats have been moved substantially rearward, giving Honda Accord nearly two additional inches of rear legroom. Typical of Honda, all important systems and controls in the Accord are positioned within easy reach of the driver. Controls for the systems used most frequently are conveniently positioned on the new steering wheel. The Accord's interior palette is sophisticated and coordinated and is offered in black, gray or ivory colors. The LX interior has painted accent surfaces with a hairline finish, Sport models have metallic-look film accents, and other models have wood-look film accents with a rich open-pore finish. The Accord seats feature fabric seating surfaces in the LX and EX trims, with an added accent fabric in the EX. Sport models have a combination of fabric and synthetic leather, with contrasting piping for a sport-oriented look. The EX-L, EX-L Navi and Touring trims feature leather seating, with perforated leather and a quilted stitching pattern on select areas. The Accord's all-new front bucket seats are designed to provide comfortable support for a wide range of body types, along with secure lateral support for cornering. For greater shoulder support, the seatbacks are 4.9 inches taller than in the previous-generation Honda Accord.
