Default A little CRX Easter Egg

This post is for the benefit of those who are new to the CRX and maybe some who arent. I had mine for nearly 6 months before someone showed me.

While the car is off if you push inward on the plastic cover for the clock controls, the clock display will temporarily light up showing you the time without needing to start the car. Neato.

At one of my jobs I met a girl who for years thought her lock was broke on her EG hatch so she always locked it from the outside with the key and then I told her how hondas require you to hold the handle out before locking and her "broke" lock was now fixed

not sure if everyones does this, but on my Si if you leave the key in the ignition it beeps. But if you take it out and put it back in it won't until you start the car and shut it back off again. It was so weird when i was working on that and figured it out.

The door locks on my Hatch are the same, gotta pull on the door handle to lock it from inside only on the driver's side. Just flip the lock on the passenger side.

I used cup holders out of an old sentra and just did minor hacking ot get them to fit in the cubby below the stereo, works like a charm.

Oh, and i have always done the swipe, didnt know about the clock thing. Thats kinda cool.
