okay so i could possibly trade my oem lugnuts for a set of blue work lugnuts, but one thing i have a question is would my wheels and car be okay without having lugnuts on when its just parked in my garage for a while?

theoretically it would be fine.. maybe lol. I would probably keep mine on a jack before i would do that tho. If the wheel falls & then the car is sitting frame on the floor.. how are you going to get it back up? or it could damage your studs. do you have jackstands you can keep the car on instead? that would be ideal & a lot safer.

i only have 2 jackstands , can i just leave the jack one on side?

ikno its not a good idea, but can it work

Maybe jackstands at the front and jack on the rear tow hook? I did that to get my car level when filling up the transmission fluid. It is pretty stable. You would only need to take the weight off the wheels a bit.

Or some concrete blocks will work as stands. Don't leave your wheels on the car with no lugnuts! You will have to replace studs as we as lugnuts.

okay so now that I got that question i have a cuople new ones

1) i have quite a bit of space, I haven;t noticed it before, but while doing a full interior vacuum i noticed it. what is going on here, and cheap solutions?



2) i belive my steering column is bent due to a theft, can anybody tell me some solutions to make it straight again

for starters, i have to ask; what wheels are you running? if they're oem, keep the oem nuts on, since oe wheels utilize a ball seat lug. the work lugs will be a conical lug and should not be used with an oem wheel. basically, oem lugs should not be used on aftermarket wheels and aftermarket lugs should not be used on oem wheels. it's a safety issue. one lug centers the the wheel on the hub, while the other centers it on the nut.
and if you don't have stands, improvise. use some wood blocks. pretty much anything sturdy, solid and flat will work.

for the back bench seat, there hooks in the underside of the bench that secure it to the floor. just take the bench out and bend the hooks down to make it fit tight again

for the steering column cover, is it screwed into the column? like can you grab it and kind of turn it? it looks like it's just not screwed into the column

It looks like only the steering column cover is off a little(your average person is not going to be able to bend the steering column). This is common on attempted theft integras.

I have real Work Emotions CR Kais, and im trading my lugnuts to make everything match, its not important, but i like things to look neat

i cant find where the hooks go.

The steering column is straight as can be, its if i take the cover off, it will still look bent, I'll take more pics later

maybe you could just buy the lug nuts ...

Brraapp

it could be fine, but i see more bads happening then good. if for some reason if it did move it would wreck alot

Buy lug nuts, keep stocks for layer when you want to return it to stock. Makes life much easier IMO.

I would imagine that the mouting points (ignition), of the cover on the steering column is broken. I have no clue what the first pic in post #6 is.

Your seats should have metal hooks on the bottom front side which hook into the slots in the floor. Those have to be hooked in first before the back side of the seat is put down. I think its the same as my 4door. The back of the rear seat is held down by bolts in the corners.

You seats were probably taken out at some point and not installed properly or the hooks in the front broke off. I don't see them in the pic.

steering couloum, just buy a new one

okay one last question, and then I'll have all the information I need.

are the bench seats for the 93-97 diffrent from the bench seats in the 98-01
because this might explain the ill fitted seats in the back
