This is what the kit looks like. I got the pic from the Accord Store and they want $62.95 for it, but the dealer also sells this I suppose. I guess I will just save my money and just live with the noise.

 

prolly a ho to install too

 

:down: ... 4th gens are basically the same as 5th gen frame/exhaust..... except the EX 5th gen engine...... so they could just as easily have a rattle, and many do.

But i can say..... I guess im lucky because i do have a 5th gen, and dont have an exhaust rattle....

 

I think it's more of a problem if you have aftermarket exhaust. I never had a problem w/ my stock exhaust, but now its 10X louder, there's the cause of my rattle.

 

Honda has a recall on the 5th Gen spring bolt kit. Go ask Honda if they will fix it before you spend your own money.

 

were does the rattle come from?

 

once you get a header or a loud exhaust i don't remember it being a problem anymore.

don't get that kit anyways. i was told by the parts manager that you can use a radiator clamp and finagle it in way to stop the vibration.

 

If I remember correctly I believe its the where the front of the cat bolts to the headpipe.

 

really that kit isnt needed if ur exhaust is mounted correctly or if u dont have any cracks/leaks/opennings in ur exhaust. when my exhaust started to rattle on my way home from the car shop i drove back less than an hour later and when the guy rev'd my car u heard the rattle and sick sounding sound that came from it. he put it back up on the lift and checked the welds and there it was a hole they missed in welding my custom piping..
