Some of us view a different number of posts per page so your "page 5" is probably not accurate.

Please go to the post in question, and click the post number in the top right hand corner of the post. Then copy the URL of that page from the address bar and post it here with your question.

Anyone been able to replace the Bulbs in the dash switches? like Aux,haz and Defrost?
I tired to, but wasn't sure about prying on it, for fear of breaking a switch.

yea, you just take the switch out and turn it upside down, and then use a small screwdriver to unscrew the twist lock bulb socket, and then give the switch a tap on the table and the socket/bulb should fall right out.

You know I love you, it still doesn't look THAT bad on your car, although I don't know why you don't just grab an ex/si lip for your car its much classier & less boy racer'ish' than Ebay type r style **** ( the S2000 lip looks similar to the Civic/Integra ones & I hate it as well, just looks like garbage) I just think it will make your car look 10 times better, especially now that you leveled out the height & your not in heavy braking anymore bro! :p
Im not sure what lip I want, trying to fab up a fiberglass splitter so..... :dunno:

Oh and my brakes are so much better now. Axxis Ults in the front and PBR deluxe in the rear. its quite ballanced.

Nice. Looks much better with the factory oem headlights & corners. All it needs is a Ex/Si lip.\

Get an Ex/Si lip and put a splitter underneath it ( fiberglass/cf, thin painted wood, w/e). Nice on the brakes.

Default Muffler.

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a new muffler for my DelSol.

I want an universal 2 1/2 Center inlet. I need something with a very good flow and quiet too.

What do you suggest ?

I currently have an ApexI WS2 universal installed my car but this muffler is little too long for the Sol.

Thanks.

How do the jdm fog lights hook up to the back of the Mugen bumper? is there a bracket or something?

Got the Civic back on the road, so the Sol has taken it's rightful place in the garage.

Keep the WS2. Just have an exhaust shop trim the piping right before the muffler.

End result:

last time double/cross posting i swear lol

these are what came in yesterday



been thinking about getting them for a while

mocked them up quickly last night to get an idea of how they looked
(working outside in the dark + mosquitos = )



was going to wait and see how I felt about them and what other people thought. Get opinions on whether or not to make them permanent and if I was brave enough to do it.
But this morning I just said f*ck it, I like them which is all that should matter so I went ahead and mounted them on



very surprised/impressed with the fitment









Plus I don't see how I could buy something and not use it. Would just be a waste.
I could try to sell them but wouldn't want to deal with the hassle and take a loss.

Sure it will be a love hate thing and some people would say its too much or I ruined it but oh well.
Nothing that can't be undone (not easily but still) in the future if I change my mind.

Well that should be it from me for a while. I definitely need to take a break now. All at once is tough. But I'm happy with it tho.
Besides a new VC and new tires, it will pretty much stay like this for the rest of the season.
