Found these in the glove box along with a wiring harness. They are about the size of a quarter. Anyone have an idea what they are? I think the dealer did a poor PDI, found a razor blade on the floor and the positive cover over the battery was left in the up position.

Thanks in advance

Those are meant too cover the holes in the chassis where the shipping tie downs are placed. The PDI procedure for the Pilot is available online, do a Google search and it will show you where they go.

Thank you very much. I used the document that you referenced and installed myself:frown: They also left the shift lock cover in the bag.

The items pictured are body plugs and go on the frame rails. They fill they holes where the chains were attached when you RL was tied to the delivery truck. If they are not installed at PDI (Pre Delivery Inspection) road noise may be higher than usual and you may be getting water where you don't want it. Bad job on the part of your dealer, you got to ask what else they forgot?

At least they put gas in it. I also just found some white tape on the front fender but it is a white RL.

those are eye grommets. simply place them over your eyes as you approach your Ridgeline (or within about a 10-foot radius). their main purpose is so you can't see the factory defects and other flaws created during PDI.

I thought they were to be used when looking at the sticker price and dealer markups...

Sounds like you may not have gotten a PDI at all. I would confront the dealer about this.

Rubber Plugs?

Can someone tell me the purpose of these plugs? They were in the glove box with all the manuals and stuff when I picked up the truck

I am currently on the International Space station so gravity is not in effect ( sorry)

Re: Rubber Plugs?

I think they look like firewall plugs. Not sure why they would be in glove box. Unless the tech at your dealership missed installing at the PDI.

For your ears when someone starts talking about you ride not being a real truck.

I would say you win with that location.

This should answer all of your questions. Good idea to install them.

Thank you. I was wondering what they are.

YES, the GM of the dealership and Honda need to know the PDI was not properly done on the vehicle. Additionally there should be a booklet in the glovebox with someone signing off on the PDI. That person just skipped it.

I really hate dealers. Too many years of catching such screw ups. Yes, there are good and bad dealers, but the bottom line is their interest is in making money not doing everything Honda want's them to do.

BTW, if you EVER have your oil changed at a dealer tell them you want to see it done with your own eyes. Otherwise there's a good chance nothing will get changed... only topped off if the oil looks decent at all. Sleazy, but standard practice. VTM-4 and VTM-4i fluid changes are even worse. I just saw some numbers on that that would SHOCK you.

Thanks Chris,

I'm not surprised that they were not put in during PDI, not a great experience at the dealer. But, three different people told me to give them a "10" on the Honda survey, because anything Less than a "10" affects their bonus!!

Not Everyone gets a trophy!!

You want a "10" you gotta actually TRY!

Thanks again!
