So I just picked up my new whip a couple days ago.It's going to be my family car since my boy is almost here. Has a few flaws but overall it's pretty clean. Will be updating as I fix things on it. But for now I thought I share it with you guys
Pictures aint the best angle but will do for now...will post interior pics and better exterior pics later
So like I said there is a few flaws...... one of them is that both driver side windows don't Roll down. I checked the main window switch to make sure that was in working order and everything checked out. So I went ahead and removed the door panel to find.........
Nothing!!!!! There is no window regulator!!!!!
And the only thing holding my window up is that screw that I circled
Havent check the rear one but I'm pretty sure it's the same thing
So I'll be ordering the window regulator today.
hahahah Holy. I don't mean to sound insensitive but that's some funny ****. I would call the person back who sold it to you and ask them WTF. Not because I would expect them to do anything about it but just seriously WHAT THE ****!!! haha

Berz out.
I know and when I asked them why the window dint roll down they just said"oh it stopped working"...********
<br/>Well this came in the mail yesterday <br/>Just havent had a chance to install bin working and getting off late. But should have it on by this
weekend<br/>
So the window just stops working and they don't bother to take it in to get fixed? I'm sorry but that is really odd! Is that why they sold it, so they wouldn't need to fix it?

Honestly I'm not sure...but I guess they dint really care about the window not working.

Not only did they not take it to get it fixed but they removed the regulator! So it stopped working should have been followed with "So we hacked the door to keep the window up and your gonna need a new regulator to get it working again" haha
You won't find them. If you do, they wont be cheap.

There's a few sets on eBay right now. One is $499 and the other is $299 + $49.95 shipping. I'm on the hunt. That said THEY AREN'T SIDE STEPS. They're non load bearing and stepping on them WILL break them . They're considered "Sport Trim"
If you decide to sell em I got $250 with your name on it.

Yeah I kinda noticed they couldn't hold much weight when i stepped on them and wasent sure if they where just loose or something, but thanks for the heads up.
Wouldn't have bin very happy if I would've broken them.
You'll be the first in line if I decide to get rid of them.
So yesterday I was on my way to get new tires (almost there) when I started hearing a bumping noise on the front right tire. Got there took a look and...
Im just curious, how come the car didn't have a regulator?? Was it in an accident?
It hasn't bin in a accident. I was told by last owner that the window just stopped working. I honestly thought it was gonna be the switch or a fuse but when I popped the door panel off....no regulator
Hey kayONE, how has the car been driving? Have all the issues with it been cleaned up? Did you find any other problems in the last couple of months?
Sorry for the super late response haven't really
bin keeping up with this thread but I'm gonna get back on on it.
And about a month ago my tranny went out on me
just out of no where. I picked one up at a local junk yard for pretty cheap considering it was the rtawd. But other then that its bin a pretty solid car
will post more pics soon
Just stopped in to give you a heads up. I saw that you bought this for a family car. This model doesn't have an anchor point for forward facing carseats. If you haven't already, you can add them. I picked some up on ebay for $12. They bolt into the headliner near the hatch. I also wish my '98 was that clean Mine is crusty but trusty.
Family whip 99 crv
Mine is crusty but trusty.
