    Fitting replacement Wing

    Depending how critical you are, you very rarely get a good match on a car if that age due to the differing history of the two cars. I know someone who tried that on a 2000 Porsche 911 and it looks horrendous. I'd have the existing wing repaired and blended.

    where do i get a turbo kit from for my f20?

    Exactly, it's each to their own. I think my opinion stems from my enthusiast car (my Accord is my daily hack), where amongst the community there is a huge divide between concourse and modified. I'm very much on the concourse side of the argument. I appreciate the work people put in, but find it...

    where do i get a turbo kit from for my f20?

    H22 engines as was previously mentioned are still a few hundred quid. I just don't see the point in this instance of a converstion and/or turbo when you can a buy a car with the a half decent engine already in for less time and money. Then it will also have good brakes and s suitable...

    where do i get a turbo kit from for my f20?

    IMO yes they/you are lol. It seems a lot of time and money spent to get somewhere that is still not the full package.

    where do i get a turbo kit from for my f20?

    Wouldn't even bother with the engine swap. If it really does have to be an Accord, sell up and buy a CH1. You can get them for next to nothing! Just noticed I wrote enable rather than able on my first post. Dork!

    where do i get a turbo kit from for my f20?

    Waste of time and money IMO. It will cost thousands to modify the engine and cooling to be enable to run a turbo. All on a car worth about a grand??? Start with something nippy like an Impreza or an Evo that is designed to run a turbo, and try and make that fast.

    Child seat on rear bench

    Has anyone managed to find a Brittax fitment seat base to go on the back seat (new born carry seat thingy effort)? I've just had to have the proper brittax one refunded from mothercare as it didn't fit correctly around the belt buckle. Ma'lady isn't very happy with just the seatbelt wrapped...

    Top section Double DIN with heater controls moved

    It took about eight hours start to finish. Some major dashboard alterations and re-routing of the heater panel cables. The blower direction was the worst as it's too short to use the existing route. The easiest part was wiring the satnav system in to the speedo etc

    Top section Double DIN with heater controls moved

    Everything works as it should. The photo is a bit deceptive as there is a black panel around the unit which fits flush against the original dashboard.

    Top section Double DIN with heater controls moved

    All done: It's a new Honda HDD sat nav system with Bluetooth and I-Pod. Took some time and effort to do, but worth it. Supplied and fitted by Holdcroft Honda.

    Anyone moved stereo and climate location and fitted double din?

    Yes it will. It's only like a normal head unit but with an additional GPS receiver

    Anyone moved stereo and climate location and fitted double din?

    I'm in two minds whether to do this as well. I've got a new Honda HDD touchscreen satnav/bluetooth/I-pod system ready, and I tracked down and bought the double DIN satnav fitting kit from a Honda dealer in Germany. I just don't know whether I want to alter the car away from it's completely...

    Car mileage vs maintenance costs (if NOT done yourself)

    I'd listen to Shiny. Anyone who works in insurance knows all about ripping people off lol.

    MOT Advisory items...Advice please!

    IMO if they are an advisory on the (recent?) MOT they don't need doing yet, hence why the car didn't fail. It is an opinion of the tester that they are showing signs of wear. On one of my cars I've had the same MOT advisory on and off since 1997.
