bquade - nice pics man

Ace - Good pics bro. You gotta teach me how to photoshop like that haha.
Have you been craigslist-ing for people parting out a civic. It's more common to find someone parting out a 96-98 than it is to find front end pieces at a junkyard.

BTW, anyone know where which car this cluster comes from and how much they run for?

Phi- I havent been there, but i always hear its pricier than others since they remove the parts for you, give them a call and ask how much, you dont have to buy it lol.

sirius- have you tried looking into the EM2 clusters? looks cleaner IMO, i can never sacrifice my mph cluster for a km/h one lol, been working on one for a while..

i do want those honda access leg lights though lol.

Sirius - Yeah, I tried craigslist, but pretty much all of them sell the whole front end with fenders which I dont need. I called a few other people, but they never pick up so I left a voice mail.

doman - Will do man. Oh hey, do you happen to have a soldering tool? Got to solder my o2 sensor wires together.

Does the coupes hood and bumper fit sedans too?

So i noticed when i brake hard or suddenly brake my driver side makes like a deep noise, like the brake pads not stopping or grinding slipping noise.. recently replace pads and rotors about 2 months ago....any suggestions?

seen hoods go from 20-60 on craigslist. brand new 100+

did you go to newark pick and pull? a week ago i saw a hood from a hatch and a coupe, not sure of condition though, but i would have noticed if it was bent coz i took some clips out of it .

Went out and took a couple shots of the car today. I'm not sure why the camera's so fuzzy I don't like it.

Are you using a SLR or a Point and Shoot? The reason why they're fuzzy is because you have your ISO set wrong. It may be AUTO but it's not the best. Try not to shoot in low light settings and you won't get that effect.

What's the best ISO setting to accommodate a low light scenario. I prefer Low Light better than outdoor images. I'm using a point n shoot tnat let's you tamper with ISO setting.

If you could peep the specs maybe the answer lies in them.

It depends on what your aperature and shutter speed are too. For low lighting, you have to keep it stable because it is exposed long/ So when you push the button your shutter will open for awhile. It is best to use a tripod in low light or open your aperature wider and increasing your iso to about 600 - 800, around 1600 is when your picture starts to become grainy.

Thanks for that advice I'll give it a try again next Sunday when the parking lots are empty. I used a tripod for the rear shots I don't notice a significant difference, but I will look into the AP/SS and the ISO. I'd definitely love to improve in anyway I can.

Im supposed to be going up north thursday if this lap top sells. I'd like to think I could bring it to ya if you worked out something with the seller. It seems he only wants to sell it complete.

Top of the Page Picture:

Saw this car and was very intrigued by it. All i have to say is these dudes in the Philippines are outing some real quality sedans and it's a bit admirable. few of my faves from the hard-drive. The only thing i'd say I don't understand is why some of those 99-00 Civics have 96-98 climate controls.














On another note, anyone know if this particular Part number is indeed the ash tray under the climate control in this picture? i've been searching and can't find the parts diagram. I bought a brand new moon roof visor from this site 2 years ago for 30 bucks.

You can crimp it together with some good quality connectors, it will be fine.

Cool pics. That part you asked about is called the smoker's package. You can find it in the accessories catalog if its still available.

Thanks man, we actually have one in the US? I was feeling lucky so it's why i asked. I never knew we actually had them. Anyone know a parts number?

I don't smoke but I think it'll make one hell of a coin holder seeing as how the one on the driverside is always filled with coins. I never know when I'll end up having to pay for meter parking. Also that would make an excellent second cigarette lighter to charge my phone and ipod before I go into work.
