1) for it aircond led; cost for led is cheap but workmanship is expensive.. need to dismantle the radio area.. (read somewhere in this forum)
2) small headlamp; look for T10 bulb or led.. very easy to change urself.. if not sure, acc shop i think change it for free..

played with it all the time since i got my car, i dun see any problems in the gb ... the old first gen auto gearbox is prone to this, but nowadays the newer auto g.b are quite rigid.

Yup about right. Ok lets do some sharing on the City history line.

First generation (1981–1986) City AA/FV/FA
This generation of City looks very similar to a Kancil. And the chasis codes detonates it as sedans AA. vans FV and cabriolet FA. Not officially sold in Malaysia

Second generation (1986–1994) City GA1/GA2
Second generation where only 3door hatchbacks are available which GA1 is pre FL and GA2 as FL. Not officially sold in Malaysia
It is after this generation Honda Fit was born as a seperate line from City.

Third generation (1996–2002) City SX8
Codenamed as SX8 but chassis model is officially called as 3A2(1.3cc)/3A3(1.5cc) which is based on EK civic platform. First official Honda City sold in Malaysia. Later facelifts called this city as Honda City Type-Z. Malaysians would call this as Malaysia 1G

Fourth generation (2002–2008) City GD8/GD9
The most famous generation of City in Malaysia i would say which is based on the Honda Jazz GD1/GD2. With Facelifted on 2005 which was commonly called as City ZX. Malaysians would call this as Malaysia 2G

Fifth generation (2008–2013) City GM2/GM3
The 5-speed City which replaced the City ZX as we can see on the roads now. GM2 is 1.5 and GM3 is 1.8 which China Honda City gets. Malaysians would call this as Malaysia 3G

Sixth generation (2014-present) City
The newly launched City

Hope this will clear some confusion though.
