Had a quick question though...I have the interior dome light on the second setting(goes on when doors are open) when I go overbumps at an angle the light flickers, is this because sols have bad body flex or is there a way to adjust the doors so they are closer to the light button in the doorsill
</TD></TR></TABLE>

My wife's did this too! Hers would come on when you turned only to the left...and it wouldnt flicker it would come on and stay on till you straightened up, Crazy.

mine comes on primarily when I let the driver side go over a bump first. too, but it goes off almost immediately, unless I leave it on the bump.

haha funny you should mention. I just looked at my senior yearbook, i had forgotten how hot the girls at my highschool were. I got a few good ones to sign, and some with thier numbers... now that im in town for xmas break i kinda wanna call one or two, but it would probably just be akward and weird since i havent talked to hardly anyone from home for a long time.

Oh and how the hell do you remember preschool? i can barely remember elementary school.

you can align them a little bit either at the hinges or move the strike plate back a little.

Yup what ^^he^^ said, if your int light still flickers, pack up where the rubber boot hit's the door with a clear film adhesive (I dont know if american kids get duraseal over there), just cut a couple of circles and stick it to the door, did this on my accord.


I cant decide what wheels to get for the sol I've been procrastinating, turned away some 16x7 white desmonds, black/red RNR's, Sparco NS2 in red, I just cant decide, I would love some Work RSZ-R's but you can never find them over here.

Any suggestions?

well, removed everything from the driverside...holy ****, every bolt was frozen and needed a lot of blow torch convincing to break free, and almost all are completely rounded off. Looks like honda will be making some money off of me come monday .

BTW, would it be ok to use the high temp caliper paint on the hub area of the rotor like some of the 2 pc. rotors that are available with the big brake kits. I know it's kind of ricey, but, I think seeing gloss black through the hub of the wheel would look better than the plain metal.
