    My new 2012 Civic Si opinions please.

    Yeah, you'll be fine. I did the exact same thing on my first manual car. You'll eventually learn how the car handles, when to shift to avoid high RPMs, and how to transition between the clutch and pedal. Just take your time.

    DIY 2012 Civic "JDM" Red Hazard Warning Switch

    It wasn't that bad. My fingers hurt like hell and I broke two fastening clips, but it was only two out probably 12 and they're replaceable. :shrug: I probably won't be touching the dashboard again unless I have a better reason...like adding a backup camera or something.
