The previous owner added them. They're a great subtle touch.

Somewhere on the old thread ("H-T's best del Sol) another user had found the online shop that sells them and all I can remember is that the shop is in Switzerland.

The cluster (καντράν) is OEM George.

well i was the first bidder... i think you should just go ahead and sell them to me a:

i already have the same mats but since they are so hard to find so if i can get a spare set i wont have to be so cautious with mine... its bad when you'd rather get the carpet dirty than your floor mats haha... it defeats the purpose of a friggin floor mat!! man i wish you could just pick those up at honda still...

Somebody else already asked me to end the auction early. I want to see how much they'll sell for. Hopefully a lil more than .99 lol.

the 30 mpg Del Sol is just not good enough

a 70 mpg Honda bike is the way to go

easy on my pocket book and mother nature.

lets go get high and recycle

I've got some rims sitting in the apartment, and a fugen bumper sitting at home, which I plan to throw on soon.

And as soon as I can find a H22 header and modify it, I do plan on lowering the car a bit more.

I don't know about over there, but here in EWrope 215/40 for 16's are the most expensive size in the 16 inch range.

215/45 perhaps?

yea, i was looking at azenis, but i dont know if 205/40's would be stretching too much on a 8" wide wheel? and i dont know if i could fit 215/45's

yea 215/40's seem kinda pricy, but size wise seems like what i would need i may look at 215/45's but like i said, im unsure if i could fit them

any opinions on the BFG's i posted up there^

I think an 8" wide rim needs a 225/45. You may be able to stretch a 215..
