Default |___The REAL Parking Antena Switch___|

Thought I would show everyone what the actual
jdm parking antena switch looks like, instead of the
common "half" switch. I still cant figure out what that
half switch was used for.

I knew there was going to be **** like you to post, but its a message board
so good comes with the bad.

Plenty of people do, me not being one of them, but knowledge of hondas
is what we are all here for right? Unlike your post, im contributing.

pole switch is for the parking pole. it is an option on jdm cars for their front bumpers. it's an antenna with a little green bulb at the top of it to aid in parking.

now the half switch is used to lower the antenna 1/2 way down. some of the parking garages and pedistrian crossing bridges are way low, hence needing to lower your antenna half way down.

space is a comodity and every little bit helps.

edit...I am a switch *****

So its a jdm mod in that if you can't park your little honda you need a pole to "assist" you .

Its cool only for the fact that its not offered here and for originality

If not to keep the site family freindly, to keep my thread less gay.
You can find pictures of the antenas if you search.

Too many people were saying that the half mast switch was for the
parking antena and I havnt ever seen this "pole" switch untill I got
this one today. It came off a eg6 front clip.
