Brady Adventures is where we document the evolution of our builds from Land Cruiser overlanding to our 2024 Acura Integra A-Spec Tech and other family sport compact cars. You’ll find detailed installs, reviews, and trip content as we explore both trails and the street.
The rear camera install is the second half of the Mangoal dash cam setup on the 2024 Acura Integra A-Spec.
The front camera install handled the clean mirror-area fitment and power connection. This rear camera video is about the part most people want to understand before they start: where to place the rear camera, how to route the cable, how much trim work is involved, and whether the two-channel setup still looks clean after everything is tucked away.
Mangoal provided the dash cam to Brady Adventures for install/review coverage. My opinions are my own. The full review still needs to cover day footage, night footage, app behavior, GPS/privacy settings, and long-term owner experience.
If you are installing a rear dash cam in a hatchback-style car like the Integra, take your time with cable routing and trim placement. The clean result is worth it, but the rear camera is where the install becomes more than a simple front-camera swap.
In this part of the Integra dash cam series, I install the front camera housing on my 2024 Acura Integra A-Spec. The setup is designed to hide behind the factory mirror area, so the big questions are fitment, trim removal, power connection, and whether the installed camera actually looks clean once the trim goes back together.
Mangoal provided the dash cam to Brady Adventures for install/review coverage. My opinions are my own, and the follow-up videos will cover the rear camera, app behavior, day footage, night footage, and whether I would keep the kit installed.
Viewer Q&A: this kit does not include a cabin camera. It records front and rear video plus audio. I will cover the rear install and owner-experience questions in the next parts of the series.
If you are installing a dash cam in a 2023-2025 Acura Integra, the front install is the cleaner half of the job. The rear camera routing is where I expect more of the real work to show up.
The 2008 Civic Si sedan FA5 needed a simple but very visible exterior refresh: the window sill weatherstrip / belt molding had dried out, broken down, and was no longer doing much sealing. In this Brady Adventures video, the old belt moldings come off and a full aftermarket replacement set goes on all four doors.
This is not presented as a perfect factory-service-manual how-to. The video shows the real learning process: stubborn old trim, plastic clips that are basically designed to break, cheap pry tools that are not always strong enough, and the extra care needed if your paint is in better shape than this Civic's already-worn clear coat.
Part numbers referenced for the 2008 Civic Si sedan FA5:
Front right/passenger window sill weatherstrip / belt molding: 72410-SNA-A01
Front left/driver window sill weatherstrip / belt molding: 72450-SNA-A01
Rear right/passenger window sill weatherstrip / belt molding: 72910-SNA-A01
Rear left/driver window sill weatherstrip / belt molding: 72950-SNA-A01

What The Install Was Really Like
The old seals were in rough shape and came apart as they were removed. Masking tape helped protect the paint around the window line, but the job still takes patience because the retaining clips can stay stuck in the door or break away from the old molding.
The basic process was to work under the rubber and trim, pry upward, remove the leftover clip pieces, clean the channel, and then line up the new belt molding so the back seal and clips seated correctly. Gloves helped once the trim started coming apart, and a stronger set of plastic pry tools would make the job less frustrating.
The driver side improved quickly once the technique started to make sense. The passenger side went faster, but the same warning still applies: if your paint is nice, go slowly, use tape, and be careful around the glass and clear coat.
Final Verdict
For the money, the aftermarket set made the Civic look a lot cleaner. The fresh flat black window line is a big visual improvement over the worn-out old seals, and all four doors looked much better when the job was done.
The tradeoff is fit and finish. The inexpensive set used in the video was not perfectly precise, and one area did not lock in as cleanly as expected. OEM pieces would probably align better, but they cost much more per door. For a budget exterior refresh on an older FA5 Civic Si, the aftermarket set still made sense.

Why This Guide Matters
Door panel removal is the first step for a lot of the best Civic and Integra upgrades: puddle lights, speaker work, illuminated trim, and interior lighting. Getting the clips and hidden fasteners right matters more than using force.
Before You Start
Take your time, use plastic trim tools where possible, and keep track of each screw and clip location so reassembly is clean.

Why Blackout Details Matter

The best part of these small styling changes is that they are approachable, relatively inexpensive, and often reversible if you ever want to return to stock.

In this video I show how to use tinted vinyl to smoke or black out chrome wheel emblems WITHOUT paint or permanent changes. This simple trick works for almost any wheel center cap and is a great way to tone down bright chrome, add contrast, and protect the emblem at the same time.

What This Video Covers
In this video, I install smoked vinyl tint on the rear reflectors of my 2024 Acura Integra A-Spec Technology Package (DE4).
I’ll show the entire process, from surface prep to installation and final results, along with a few tips to get a clean, bubble-free finish.

Why Blackout Details Matter
Chrome and bright reflectors can pull attention away from the A-Spec lines. Blackout and smoked details help the car look more cohesive without permanently changing the character of the build.
Reversible OEM+ Approach
The best part of these small styling changes is that they are approachable, relatively inexpensive, and often reversible if you ever want to return to stock.

The PRL Cobra and PRL HVI are two of the most talked-about intakes for the 11th gen Civic 1.5T and 5th gen Acura Integra platforms. In this video I break down why I chose the Cobra for my 2024 Acura Integra A-Spec (DE4) instead of the PRL HVI.
Instead of just showing the part, this one explains the reasoning behind the choice and how it fits the overall build plan.

Why This Matters for the DE4 / Civic Si Platform
The Integra DE4 and 11th gen Civic Si share enough platform DNA that many performance parts cross over. The key is understanding fitment, sound, daily drivability, and whether the upgrade matches your goals.
Real-World Takeaway
This is less about chasing a single dyno number and more about how the car feels and sounds every day.
