I found out that the push button start button wouldn't fit between the bottom of the dash and the center console, so time to move it, the housing will be flat black to match the gauges but the aluminum ring will stay polished. I still have to drill the holes the rest of the way.
still mocking up stuff on the old dash. the new one goes in soon, the button was supposed to fit where the lighter fit.

Hiiiii! Well we had very little progress this weekend on the DX. Got the engine and dash harnesses out, but couldn't find a complete engine harness, when we went to the junkyard, they were all cut. So Im not sure what his plans from here are. I just know Im dirty and need a shower.

The basketball court in the backyard is sick. It's like a perfect half court. Or a little less than half. Rim is about 9 1/2. It's a pretty sick house.

No, Im not running one. It wouldn't be a bad idea for you to have one though hence you live up north. Salt could be a be thing to get into the pressure plate. Local honda dealer could order one.

Never liked air mattress period. Slept on it for one night and we deflated it and slept on the ground.

We gonna drop it off when I get off work.

any time i pull and engine and thats still on, its one of the first things to go in the trash. i never waste my time on them. i've ran without them for years and never had a single problem not matter what the weather conditions.
