    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    Well that's no problem, since theres no mounting holes on the passenger doors. Also the dashboard one isnt an issue as that is present on my car anyway. Only real concern right now is the front fogs.

    Fuel efficiency

    Removing the spare wheel or replacing it with a space-saver might be a good start. Though really at the very best you will get about 35MPG if you drive like an undertaker. So if you desire alot more than this, really your best bet is to look elsewhere as Accord's seem to be naturally thursty.

    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    Thanks for the info. I'l write these down and hopefully I can get help from one of the guys there (maybe even my old pop)...

    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    I saw that a while back when I searched about it. Only thing is i'd ideally like an OEM type fitment rather than jury rigging a circuit for it. User "Puppy" said he had a kit and fitting instructions, if only I could get a scan or a PDF of that and the contents... :( I know that my old Primera...

    Engine light.

    You really should be servicing it every 8k - 10k miles or yearly (whatever is first). mine didnt have a stamp for a shocking 30k (I sure hope the previous owner simply forgot to get it stamped!). As for the engine light, I recently had engine light trouble not long ago and it turned out it was...

    "v" type

    I was looking at a V-Type in a local brakers literally earlier in the afternoon. Got to say it's damn classy, a stark comparison to my car's spec. I can only ***ume it's an executive car and like others have said, the "V" I saw was indeed a 2.3 Y reg. Making it 2001?

    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    I can't say I have but i'm downloading it as I type this. The front fog switch for this model appears to be mounted a fair bit below the rear fog switch (near the drivers storage drawer) though I have seen most models have it mounted on the dash like you say with the climate control console...

    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    No, no, that's a good start thanks. I hope there is a way to disconnect the front foglights. I take it you are not aware if the wiring is present on models manufactured without them?

    Dismantling parts what's involved?

    Well after searching (fruitless) for wheels, I stumbled accross a top spec Accord in the same colour as mine with one absolutely gorgeous leather heated interior. Sadly I couldn't possibly afford or have the time to gut the whole car and swap it over at the brakers but it has some bits that I...

    '02 Civic wheels on '51 Accord VTEC S

    Well that's a bummer. :( Do you know if other gen Accords will fit? I see the odd set from 5th gen models (I think 7th gen were all 5-stud only).

    '02 Civic wheels on '51 Accord VTEC S

    I have been busy ringing around the local brakers and the suchlike for a decent set of alloys for my newly aquired 51 plate Accord 1.8 VTEC S (with little success). A gent told me that the stud arrangement on the Accords were 'odd' and pretty much only wheels designed for that particular stud...
