Icon6 Sidekickchris' Midori Green Civic Quest.

Here's My 1996 Midori Green Civic CX.
My brother used to be into Honda's a while back. He had gotten this Midori green civic in a trade 5 or 6 years ago. The car had given him a lot of problems so he parked it in the garage. It sat in the garage for about 4 years until i recently decided to fix her back up. I redid the interior harness to a 97-00 and installed 00 civic doors. Put in a new clutch and cleaned up the engine bay. My main goal is to get her started as soon as possible.

I don't have any full car pictures at the moment.
00 doors with Ctr power folding mirrors.

Pulled out the engine, fixed the clutch and put back in.

Buddy, I had a midori and first thing I did was put those mirrors. Be warned, you cant see ****. Glass is different, and mirrors are at a different angle.

Its hard switching harnesses man I never even got into it. Its always easier when your switching every harness throughout the car.

to fix those mirrors you can google guides on swapping your mirror glass into those ctr housings its not too difficult just need some time and some 3m adhesive then they look great and you can still see out of them

Haven't had time for the car for a while. been going to school full time. She's been driving good and working the single over cam hard. As soon as Christmas time and 2013 came I knew it need something new for the year so off to the body shop it went. I have big plans for this car in the future and can't wait. This car has thought me a lot.
