posted this on the main board but so far no reply.

So here it goes:

While doing my tinting was quoted other accessories

1. Speed Lock (Auto-lock) when car is moving. RM 160
2. Opti-Coat (Ceramic Clear Coat). RM 1k++ ish
3. Side-step protection with LED. RM 300 for set of 4.
4. Phillip true HID. RM 1k.

Would like to get a feel on the above pricing. Any comments, review, feedback is welcome.

Coating price is around that range. The others is on higher pricing side hmm.gif

I tested both accord and mazda 2.0 versions.

Interior wise honda wins, mazda is just plain boring for a big segment car.

But the power acelleration and handling somehow mazda seems to have slight advantage...

So I'm in dillemma now.

For peace of mind, just go for Honda because it's in Malaysia smile.gif

• Fuel Consumption Report
• SMS Alarm Alert
- Abnormal Engine Start Alert
- Abnormal Movement Alert
- Device Power cut-off Alert
