My 2005 Honda Element gets a lot of repairs and upgrades in this video. I’ve broken things down so that you can jump to the relevant parts, or you can watch the entire video, which is what I recommend.
In this video I replace the gauge cluster bulbs, the center console bulbs, I repair the door latch, replace the drivers seat belt buckle, the rear door seal, the seat belt, the speakers, the hatch struts, the AC condenser fan, I replace the power steering fluid (the easy way), the wiper blades and rear insert, the front headlights, and install a set of fog lights.
If you have a Honda Element, or you just want to see how this work gets done, watch this video!
Thanks for watching!
