No, you'll have to get a complete unit from a scrappy on fleabay or a parts portal... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-ACCORD-2005-HEADLIGHT-L-H/392247975198?hash=item5b53cd1d1e:g:xQkAAOSwXIFcdDTk...

Fair enough accord_n22 and if you use one on a very regular basis like a recovery truck operator I'd probably opt for a HD lead acid option too. Where it does outperform lead acid though is through cold weather, leave it overnight in the car on a cold night in the car and performance hardly...

Should be ok but if not I have a pre-face lift grill with all the tabs that I bought by accident. I paid forty for it but you can have it for £25 inc courier. PM me if interested.

Agreed I used to carry something similar too, try checking out those lithium polymer starter packs if and when the time comes. I was sceptical but when my lead acid starter pack was having trouble charging I decided to give one a go. At about the size and weight of a large purse they...

I'm sure the charger you recommend is fine but from what I can tell it doesn't have a regeneration mode which desulphates (See also Optimate 3 or 4). That's why I recommended the CTEK to the OP so he might be able to to revive his current battery he seems to be having problems with. I've had...

Invest in a charger that has a recon/regeneration mode, it can add years to your battery if it is recoverable. There are plenty of chinese copy's about but this is the one I have and recommend...

I've not done it but it looks fairly straight forward to remove, I very much doubt you'll get anywhere near bending that arm even if you had a genuine bench press.

Thought you'd ordered all the gear?

What arm, theres no link. All the ebay arms I've seen are for saloons, see previous post completely different rear suspension setup in those vehicles.

Autodoc package arrived, 9 days after initial order. Couldn't find replacement brake hoses for less than £30 each. Rob dogs, Autodoc aftermarket £4.

This thread is over seven years old mate so I doubt you'l get a response. You could just cut out the corroded section and replace it with a section of power steering hose and double clip it each end. As a member says in the thread below if we lived in a hotter country it might be a problem. I...

Don't think you saw it earlier, there's a unit from autodoc for less than a hundred which looks to be the correct one. By the time you spend £60 + on parts and that service kit it may have been worth it. https://www.autodoc.co.uk/blue-print/2887993

Nice try but look at the pic in the OP's first post. You had me going there but after much checking that part is for the saloon even though the ebay listing says the Mk7 tourer is compatible. The Mk7 tourer has trailing arm rather than the saloon's multi-link where the upper control arm is...

I agree with you in principle, in hindsight I also wish I'd bought a complete front lower control arm rather than feck around replacing bushes with a make do press kit but it's only a smallish bush and a ball joint for the OP and removal and refitting of the arm should be straightforward.

Should be ok, if not quite the right size collars for extraction you can always thump out the ball joint (cutting off the swivel first) and cut/burn out the remaining bush which in my case was an easier thing to do . All you really need is a larger coller when it comes to pressing in your new...

Sounds about right, you can buy a ball joint service kit from flea bay for about £40 or so. They are not great quality but they don't have to be, I've been using one to replace the bushes on my front lower track control arm. Something like this, do double check it has the sizes you need...

As part of front suspension overhall I want to remove knuckle to replace bottom ball joint (See STUCK LCA bolt) anyhow you guessed it ABS sensor bolt broke and sensor is stuck fast nor can I get to the loom connection very easily. Normally I'd do the right thing and drill it all out and retap...

Ha, yeah takes a bit of getting used to.

Try left foot braking when you're on a quiet bit of road.

Yeah I've broken allsorts on my rusty POS from ARB mounting bolts that I've had to retap to brake caliper bleed valves, a one hour job takes a day and a day job takes a week. Still luv that diesel plant though, ordered from Lings.
