i have em full power folding mirrors but believe it or not, i took them apart and ruined it haha. tried to see if i can switch the mirrors (only) to LHD but i found out that the mirrors are not the only thing thats different from a LHD assembly. i put it back together but the power folding mechanism is now jammed 
i still have the harness, relay and power button with retract if someone needs it.
its not that bad to see out of RHD mirrors. u just get used to it. unless u do alot of rough city driving like downtown LA then, yeah i would not recommend it as the driver mirror (jdm passenger side) cannot fully swing outwards. you would have to scoot forward everytime you try to see out of it.

Don't know if this is on here, but this is one of the nicest EK sedan's I've ever seen! Custom mad galvanized sheet metal quarter panels, Skyline tail-lights, custom fiber glass bumpers and trunk lid. Wouldn't mind goin' all out on a civic like this one day lol

is that even an ek sedan? ^
im sure tons of work was put in it and i admire that but the end result...idk.
its a car that has no identity. if that was the goal, then its full of win.

Yea It's a sedan, only reason I posted it is because it makes people I know stop hatin' on 4-doors. Thought some sedan lovers might appreciate it lol And I guess it's personal opinion but to me, that car has it's own identity. Sorry if it was a dumb post =P don't bit my head off lol

...saw this on 'The Chronicles' in his latest blog post from Japan.
And this guy in Thailand always uploads pretty cool 4 door meets. Here's the latest one from 4 days ago.

haha yea...its like an 8" LED strip. it was a lot bluer before I removed the film cover thing from the cluster. now it shines and lights up the whole thing in white. its a lot whiter in person.

the other cool thing is that i can still adjust the brightness. if you check out this video, you can see me adjusting it. the picture you see is at the highest setting.

its currently going to be on the lowest setting until i run the LED strips behind the gauges so it looks like this (prelude cluster, but same concept):

I'm so torn. I love 96 Frontend but I love the 2000 Tailights. I'm going SiR Bumpers, anyone think it'll look goofy with 2000 tailight?
