MY 2001 Alarm Fobs - square fob, 2x square buttons
I've just got off the phone from a very nice lady at Hamilton & Palmer, from whom I have just purchased a new key fob.
The alarm system is (funnily enough) no longer in production, but they are obliged to provide a supply of parts, pretty much in perpetuity. Unfortunately, they now have to outsource the production of small batches of these things, so the cost is now in the region of £54 per fob. Ouch.
The trick, so I'm told, is to always have a spare remote in hand and programmed. If you lose the one that works, you can't then "teach" the new fob. If you run out of working remotes, it's a whole other ball game.
Contact details:
Website - http://www.hamilton-palmer.co.uk/ But tbh, all it has on it that's of use is their phone number...
Phone - +44 (0)1732 760022
Mods, if this is perceived as naughty, posting links and phone numbers to the OEM supplier of alarms, please feel free to remove the contact details, but the rest might be of use, so please can we keep it? Much Ta.

Not sure if one for forum favourites or here but after scrolling through pages of info on Anti Roll Bars I stumbled across this:
and
I was searching for the diameter of front & rear for each year as I needed to know what bush size to order to from Powerflex which list size options but not years. Could be handy for those with sized bolts/bushes after a polybush overhaul or general chassis tuneup
FWIW you could source early OEM ones from a breakers.
The MY 2000 used a front 28.2 5mm thickness bar compared to a MY 2004 26.5mm 4.5 mm thickness.
year front----------------rear
2000 51300-S2A-003 52300-S2A-013 28.2MMXT5.0 27.2MMXT5.3
2002 51300-S2A-013 52300-S2A-J01 26.5MMXT4.5 27.2MMX4.5T
2004 51300-S2A-023 52300-S2A-J02 26.5MMXT4.5 25.4MMX4.5*
2006 51300-S2A-023 52300-S2A-J02 26.5MMXT4.5 25.4MMX4.5*
*according to press release.
you can reference the part numbers, the thickness is in the description.

Oops I was looking at the wrong numbers
If the below are correct, id actually be going for an 00 / CR front and keep the stadard rear or CR rear, combined with 8kg springs.

Service Bulletins are issued by Honda to their dealer and service network to advise them of technical issues and resolutions. Most of the service bulletins concern service and maintenance proceedures, test equipment and so forth but some are related to specific vehicle problems and resolutions. [/size][/size][/font]

- the right body side catcher
- left side trim brush (optional, you can modify if you want - easy to get though)

Looking for NTN wheel bearings (as is OE Honda fitment).
Instead of the £100 Honda are looking for these days (bearing alone I might add), I found an NTN bearing, circlip and nut for £51 delivered.
