Cheers Mikey!

It's one of those things that makes the car look more production-engineered rather than the naked spare toilet-roll in the engine bay. When I see an exposed bog-roll, I know it's a all rice-boy lash-up!

You really ought to let the engineers at Honda see your car - I'm sure they'd be interested!

Comptech Ice Box can be used N/A or with the blower, and is one of my favorites.

Mikey, I've just been looking at some of the photos in your gallery. When you relocated the horn, what did you bolt it to?

Chris.

Made a 90 degree bracket and used the bolt that holds one of the aircon line brackets for both.

Mikey, seen another post about mounting the door tweeters, how did you do this, were they glued in or did you use velcro? I have just bought some Alpine spr-17s

Sorry I ment cross over! - got carried away!!

You can see the fixing here.
Small strip of metal screwed to the back of the tweeter then resuse the original monuting points and screws to the door card

I recognise that setup

I now have the crossovers mounted with the amp where the spare wheel used to be.

That's in the pic as well
Just to the left of the tweeter.
Location on the drivers side is different.
I cut a square out of the polystrene at the bottom back edge of the door card.

Got some more done on it over the weekend.
Finally got round to fixing all the stone chips, scratches and swirls.
I got brave with the polishing machine after!



Fitted the new SoS twin gauge a pillar trim.
Works well!

Test fitted the Cobra kevlar Imola S seats, I knew they needed trimming so fitted them and trimmed them. Only needed 10mm off each side. Glued them all back together. Just need to repaint the shell then they can go off to be retrimmed

Uploaded a revised map from MASE to fix a hesitation at full throttle.
Had a quick blast round North Wales, love that area! Great roads with no one on them
