    Replacement headlights

    First image is the D2S projector housing and reflector bowl - will take better pictures next time I have my lamps out - need to adjust rotation you can see that the cutoff shield is not a detachable part on the reflector bowl but rather an integral part of the projector lens housing the...

    Replacement headlights

    ^the h1 and d2s projectors have the same form factor but are built different. both are clamshells though. h1 has a loose shield held in place by a phillips or jis head screw on the reflector bowl side of the projector. d2s has a shield integral to the lens housing casting the projector lens...

    Help to identify the cause of this noise please?

    it must be the mothership proximity warning but joking aside, the noise seems to be directly affected by engine rpm, is it a "physical" noise/function of resonance or is it coming through your speakers(think interference/bad ground)? quickest and easiest thing to do is to take your aux belt off...

    Replacement headlights

    that's a very tall order, they may be made in china or taiwan, but are only sold in the canada and the states. worth mentioning the projector takes a d2s bulb so if yours has the stock H1 projectors you'll need a HID conversion kit as well you can do a rhd projector swap if you're dead set on...

    Accord 07 LKAS issue

    how much is not much? lane ***ist relies on sas input and if your angle is off by let's say 5deg at the steering wheel it won't know that your wheels are tracking straight recommend alignment to reel it back in and do steering angle relearn with diagnostics.

    Lower ball joint nut tightening sequence

    the ball joints move in 3 dimensions as the suspension travels so there is really no reason to tighten them when the suspension is loaded. jacking the suspension up to tighten the castle nuts is primarily to lock the taper into the knuckle and keep it from spinning the manual only has removal...

    CL9 saloon front crash bar

    they're all the same with the exception of a nvh compensating weight block suspended by bushings being added to some later models(I think). I know both petrol and diesel facelift wagons have them and I've just replaced a rotted out crash damaged diesel one with a petrol one the crash bar doesn't...

    Accord 7th Gen brakes update: All OEM solutions

    have researched brake options a bit more bad news for anyone considering these - they bolt straight on, but no off the shelf discs exist that fit our cars, as the acuras and hondas that use these have a 5x120 bolt pattern. closest match is a 330x28x47 with 5x114,3 pattern aston rear disc, but...

    What have you done to your Accord lately?

    years have passed, some stuff has happened. pirates black is a no go, like most purples it ends up looking brown without the right lighting conditions to make it pop turns out what made it twitchy was(yes I'm not ****ting you) the front subframe bolts being no more than finger tight, so it had...

    What mods can I put on?

    Not with any stock components, you may want to buy a faster and more tunable car before diving down that rabbit hole. There are some good threads on civinfo explaining the fueling limitations of the i-ctdi injector and although they are not directly comparable to the i-dtec, the ballpark is the...

    24T CM3 Drivetrain Pics

    hesitant "yes it is possible", the casing is identical but the selector bracket and mounts need transferring. might want a different gearset than the crv one though it is also possible on the diesel if you get the 5/6mt awd box from the rd and re crv, the crv. rear diffs on accord cm3/cl8 and...

    Bonnet gas struts

    bit of advice based on anecdotal evidence but here goes I don't recommend ebay special gas strut conversions that mount directly to the hinge. on cars that were delivered with this type of hinge, the hinge to hood mount is designed to spread the load or the hood is built to withstand the...

    tinted lamps

    Imo the nicest and safest way to tint these is to scuff them down ready to paint, mask over the circular reflectors for the combo bulbs, reverse and fog, and do the same very neatly for the indicators Then a dusting of black paint, remove masking, clear over everything Makes them pop like dc5...

    Subframe

    it's a bit of a gamble but the rear multilink remained unchanged between 6th and 7th gen, 4th and 5th had a knuckle almost like the front of an integra, and then for the mk8 they did multilink for the bottom end, and a wishbone for the top the part numbers don't match, but judging by appearance...
