    rear wiper?

    I thought they came with them anyways, or is it just the hatchbacks that do?

    Fitting rear spoiler

    Out of interest, is the spoiler the same on the hatch as it is on the saloon? Are they interchangable?

    Colour codes

    I though paint codes/trim codes etc were usually in the passenger side door jamb?

    6th gen Bose system questions

    If you were to replace the Bose head unit, would the speakers/sub all work as normal? Is it just normal connections behind the headunit? i.e. 4 pairs of wires for the main speakers plus rca cables for the sub? Is there a downside to ditching the Bose headunit? Does it have any fancy sound...

    Part time fuel gauge

    Since I've had the car, the fuel gauge has always been a little temperamental. Most of the time it works fine, but sometimes it reads nothing, not pointing at the 0, but a bit below like it does when the ignition is off. Now I had ***umed it was the fuel sender, which is supported by an invoice...

    Fuel consumption

    I do hope you meant 95 RON :P My daily commute is ~30 miles of motorway each way, usually with a bit of traffic in the morning. Mine generally works out to somewhere round the 30MPG mark.

    Sportex Back box

    Might be better to go to someone like powerflow. They will make one up to fit your car, so no problems with fitment. They also come with a lifetime warranty.

    Removing balancer belt

    You might be able to claw back 1 or 2 horses, but as said above it will likely get soaked up in the increased vibrations. Certainly doesn't justify the time taken to do the job.

    Removing balancer belt

    What else have you done to the engine? TBH I doubt it would make a noticeable difference.

    OXYGEN SENSOR

    Out of interest, what exactly is different about this O2 sensor to that of other Accords/Hondas?

    Fuel consumption

    Yep, last year I drove from mine to Chievley, stopped overnight, and in the morning drove to Castle Coombe (for Japfest), had two 15 minute sessions during the day, and then drove home. 34mpg :D

    Fuel consumption

    Not Accord specific, but Honda in general, I've found it makes little difference on economy weather you drive carefully, or weather you hoof it. In my CRX, I average to around 34mpg, and thats cruising at ~4000rpm

    OXYGEN SENSOR

    Is it really worth getting rid of a perfectly good car, all because you're too stingy to pay for a part that costs ~£200?
