    Problem finding front wiper blades or rubber replacements for 1982 Honda Accord MK1 EX 1.6 petrol

    Is it possible you can find a suitable blade that fits and insert it into your metal arm/bracket (if that makes sense)?

    Looking to buy a 2010 Accord Dtec Auto advice needed.

    I don't own a diesel either, but from what i've seen the main issues are related to DPF and EGR (typical diesel problems). The EGR is difficult to replace without removing a lot of components, from what i've read. Most people tend to blank it off and disable it in software rather than try to fix...

    Reversing camera failure

    Oh no! Best to try a new camera I think! If you get it from a business seller on ebay you can probably send it back easily enough if it doesnt work, distance selling regs etc

    manually fold side view mirrors

    Not sure if you're supposed to, but I do this quite a lot as I have a narrow driveway to get my refuse bin past. Just push them in - they are a bit stiff though!

    Reversing camera failure

    Looks like there's a few on ebay for around £80-90 mark. New from Amayama is £427 *cries in yen* It's probably wroth checking the wiring at both ends as it doesnt look like too much work - the screen on the dash just pulls straight out with the help of a trim tool, you don't need to remove any...

    Reversing camera failure

    There's not much to the wiring of this, it's just 1x pin that sends a composite video signal, and a ground pin for said signal There's a rather dogdy diagram of the wiring here that I made earlier...

    [Guide] How to replace the factory sat nav with an aftermarket head unit

    Hah thanks - it's a good sounding system which is why I was keen to keep the amp rather than rip it out but I wanted to have a more up to date Sat nav which I like to have especially if you end up in a place with no signal, and I missed the DAB radio from my last car. I don't use it a huge...

    Type s vs executive?

    Going by the brochure linked above, at least for the 2006 model the Type S can only come with the standard audio system. Not to say that it's impossible that someone had a custom order with those bits added or retrofitted it (probably a huge job), but I would say it's unlikely.
