Re: (sohc95vtec-t)
So here that update I was talking about that I've been trying to keep a secret and haven't told anyone even about the idea because I wanted to wait until I actually did it and see how it looked:
wanted to get something to match my s2k antenna
installed:
Yes, its JDM climate control that i "ruined"
but I couldn't see myself doing it on a USDM one
cause then I'd never use my JDM one and it would just be a waste
It was "risky" but i think it was worth it
and before the smart asses say what I know they will say
I don't have a heater core/fan, so no need for controls as i'm sure you're wondering what I'm going to do without them
Even if I had heat and needed fan controls
I'd find a way to "tuck" it and still be able to use them.
That said, let me know what you think
and if you're wondering...the ergonomics/location/position is perfect
very natural turning the key on then pressing the button
even better than s2k/dc5/fd2/OEM I would even say (at least the LHD ones with them cause its on the opposite side of the ignition)
More/better pics of it installed in the car coming soon....
oh and here was my inspiration:
wanted to do match or exceed the cleanliness of the installation
might post a DIY thread of somesort myself
p.s. if u haven't figured it out
I'm home for a couple days!
which means del sol time

:drool: BTW ward im putting in that rear panel this weekend. only took me a month or two to do it LOL
I just finished getting the two center nuts off at lunch. And whoever told me it was a 20 minute job lied or didnt have to do those. I spend 30 minutes on just those two. the other four were cake though once I got the trim and carpet off.

For those of you that know/live in Europe. Did Del Sols really have Black door latches and Mirrors from Honda or is that just somthing people made up?

Re: (sohc95vtec-t)
Here's two Euro Sols with black mirrors and door handles.
@ Wray
Glad you received the package. Was starting to think the package took a boot trip instead of a plane ride!
Looking forward to seeing some new pictures.

Re: (sohc95vtec-t)
Man. That vtec sol for 3500 is a steal.
It makes consider getting in to debt for it, but I know if I do, I'll never finish the hatch.
Morning fellas

Re: (hidden sol)
Thats a nice Sol you got there!
Here's some more silver Sols:
I'm going to bed now, got a nasty throat infection.
Need to take a rest from all these Sols.
Goodnight everybody
