So i always thought these were cool on coupes, but i thought they would make cooler emblems instead of insignia below side markers.


So i did it lol.




Thought they flow better with our old school cars.

Im stoked on the endless possibilities now that I have a Ys1 case to mess with.. tough to decide to pull the hydro set-up I just put in the crx and go back to cable or stay full hydro..

I updated my beater thread... some pics, some banter.. let me know what you guys think. *remember, its a beater!

Yes I did. Thank you sir! Much better than using vice scripts. Now the wago looks in good shape for when it goes on sale in about two weeks. I think I've decided on a '07-'08 civic LX 4-door.

Someone tried to break into my car today in the parking lot of my school.

Came back and it looks as though someone just shoved a screwdriver into my key hole. Can't even unlock the door now

Apparently three other cars got broken into at the same time, and the stereo's were stolen, so it's good to know that at least they weren't after anything else.
And my car was the only one that they didn't succeed on actually getting into the car.

Obviously they're morons if they couldn't even get into my little Honda.

ugh :/

Same on my beater.. but at least they tried going thru the passenger door, such nice thieves. thats why im thinking of going with some 20$ power actuators that i can run with my alarm from e-gay to avoid replacing the key cylinders, only sucks if the battery dies!

Thats what I have on my car. I use the 4door door handles without the key. Ive never had my battery die on me, but as a backup I could always crawl thru the trunk.

nice.. any specific buyer or even a brand that you use.. They all look the same, just a matter if u wanna pay more for shipping or more for the part itself..

I have definitely crawled thru the trunk of my car before! one time i locked the keys in it mid swap so i rolled under and sent my arm thru the shifter hole to fish em out.. almost got my arm stuck!!

Nope, no specific brand. I bought them a long time ago and they are the $20 specials. Im sure there are high quality ones available but back then I bought the cheapies and they're still holding up fine.

i just get frustrated sometimes. having 3 kids and working 70+ hours a week just doesnt go hand in hand with building a car. Especially when it doesnt run. If it was just bolt ons or something easy I wouldnt have a problem. Stupid Battery Chargers!

Question: is the stereo wiring the same for a Civic as it is for a CRX? We can not find the diagram for a Civic, only the CRX. I'm guessing they are the same.

yes they are. The only difference would be if the car came with rear speakers. either way, all the wiring is the same as long as it's all there.
