One of the first things to do when you get your new Buckeye Honda CR-V – Personalize It!
There are a number of ways to personalize your new Honda CR-V. You can purchasing Genuine Honda Accessories, through the Buckeye Honda Parts Department, designed and engineered specifically for your CR-V. You can add some cool fuzzy dice to the mirror (does anyone actually still do this?) or you could start out by uploading a new wallpaper to your i-Mid screen.
Located front and center in your CR-V’s instrument panel, i-MID communicates with virtually all of your vehicle’s systems so you can get all your information in one place. See vehicle performance stats, like fuel consumption and trip range estimates, as well as more personal info, like text messages[1] and what’s playing on Pandora®[2]. See what’s behind you with the multi-angle rearview camera. Then upload a favorite image for i-MID’s wallpaper.
So let’s get that Wallpaper Hung!
