I'll trade you my factory Honda single-CD player radio for your cassette radio.

I'd rather have the ability to use the adapter. (Do the FM transmitter thingers work any better than the cassette adapters?)

Glad to hear your forced recalibration worked.

My pack is in bad enough shape that the IMA light and battery-related Check Engine Light codes came back (and the hybrid assist/regen disappeared) after only about 30 km or so after I did a forced recal.

I don't mind the way the car drives without the hybrid "boost". I'm used to Metros/Fireflies
