⚠️ Important Tech Note for Buyers

Calibration Required: This is a safety-critical component. Once installed, it MUST be calibrated (re-aimed) by a Honda dealership or a shop equipped with ADAS calibration tools. If not calibrated, your cruise control and emergency braking features will not function and will display an error message on the dash.
Theft Replacement: This is the correct OEM replacement for units that have been stolen or damaged in front-end collisions.
Pro Tip: If you need to use cruise control before your calibration appointment, you can often hold the "Distance" button on the steering wheel to switch to "Normal" (non-adaptive) cruise mode.
