I bought a EF9 rear hatch with the bronze glass and mine came with a different looking "H" badge in the middle. Usually i think the H badges are standard chrome ones, but mine looks like a chrome one mounted on a black base. It appears to be all one piece (so someone didnt just mount the chrome one on top of a black base, it came that way). And the most interesting thing is, is that it has 2 wires coming out the back of it, as if its suppost to light up. It all looks OEM because the wires match the rest of the wires on the hatch itself and on the end of the 2 wires, theres an OEM connector, which was plugged in. It also appears that my hatch came with the center tail light section that lights up because i found cut wires that lead to a grommet that is on the panel where the center tail light section is. Anyone ever see or heard of this? Maybe i'll have my friend take a pic of it and post it for me...

BTW, it is a EF9 SiR hatch and not the 25X or some other lower model.

 

If you got the light up center section that hatch just payed for itself cause that has got to be one of the most rare parts out their.

It looks like i found the part. If u scroll about half way down, you'll see it. Even though it shows it as a CRX part, it looks like the same ****. Lemme see if i can post the pic...

 

How can it be the most rare part when like 4 ppl alone have them on this board. Its not that rare at all.

WTH...never said it WAS rare...i was questioning it. Only 4 ppl on this board have it? Id say thats grounds for it being somewhat rare...

edit: i guess u were replying to what the other guy said. Also, someone swapped the center section for a blank one...so someone knew whats up.

hahaha...hells yea...j/p

i need someone with a big picture of that advertisement and who can read japanese so i know what in fact it actually does. The emblem unit does not look to be transparent, so if it lights up, i dont know how u can actually see the light. Initially i thought some guy in japan just glued that **** on there, kinda like ppl do here. I thought it was japan rice...but its definitely OEM as seen in the brochure/ad.

 

I would like to see a pic of it
Sounds nifty. You said you got the bronze tinted glass too, huh? Thats rare too, but it dosent do you any good with the factory side windows.

 

Well it just so happens that i have ALL the JDM glass. this hatch just completed it. So i have the both door glasses and both 1/4 window glass. The pic of the H badge is on the brochure...but if u want a bigger pic, i will try to get one.

 

awesome find. Rare piece for sure.

I'm not saying every Honda-Tech person on here. I am saying out of EF/ED ppl that accually post. So maybe 4 out of lets say 500ish... Heck, if I wanted one I'm sure I could find a place to get it but personally I think its kinda tacky and I dont want it on my car.

Thats right, these light up center panels aren't rare at all, so if anyone has any they don't want I'll be generous and offer oh, say five bucks to take them off your hands.

 

people sometime say the dumbest **** don't u guys agree

only 4 people on this board has them out of like 20000 members worldwide

mmmm.....
let me think duhhh!!
yeah that is rare

good **** bro and yeah matching the other windows in bronze would look dope

 

Thank you sir.
Bump...still want to know what this H badge actually does.

 

Nice, didn't see one of those before. I say those are hella rare, first time I've seen it on the board, would definitely like to see one in person

if its got wires comin out of it...hook it up to a power source and see if it lights up. Ive always heard that those things were pretty rare. but i dunno.

however if it's just an led or light bulb. you might fry it by puting an indiglow transformer on it. i here indiglows work at like 150Vish

i have a small ( 1" X 1" X 1.3") transformer from a petal set i'll sell ya for $10 + shiping.

 

There are 2 small boxes still inside the hatch..i will remove those and trace wires. I think one was for the center tail light section, and one is for this H badge.

 

I have removed the 2 black boxes from the inside of the hatch, and they look identical, but have different numbers printed on them. The boxes look like the one found on this thread https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=553078 .
In that thread there is only 1 box, but like i said earlier, i think 1 box was for the center garnish, and the other was for the H badge that i have. I even have the little grommet that is on the center garnish wiring harness (if u look closely at the thread i posted, u will see it). The grommet is used so the wiring can go through the hatch panel and into the center garnish. Too damn bad i didnt get the garnish, as someone removed it and cut the 2 green wires . Should i go ahead and hook up 12V through the black boxes while its plugged in to the H badge? Would hooking up 1 or 2 AA's (without the blk boxes) burn up the H badge? How many amps does a AA have? So many questions, so little answers...

As it stands, it does appear that i have the hardware/wiring for hooking up a center garnish (which i dont have).
