Some people say putting the mounts in ruins the car, others love it. All depends on who ya ask. They are probably going to stay unless something wrong happens somehow.

I'll let you know how it goes. They've gotten good reviews compared to ACC and JC Whitney, so we shall see...
Let me know how it goes. It would be baller to get a brand new black carpet in there.

Anyone have experience with re-dying the upper back seat? Mine is horribly faded. Usually, I wouldnt care, but how often do you see ITR seats that fit a sedan? Pretty rare, so IMO they are worth the work.

Replaced axles/passenger side axle seal/drained and filled transmission fluid. Previous owner was running oil in there, so I am happy to replace it with Honda MTF.

Plans today are to work on fog light wiring again, and possibly paint the window moldings black if I have the time.

Fogs rewired and done. For some reason, they stay on all the time when the key is put in. I can hear the relay clicking as soon as I plug in the switch, so maybe I have a wire backwards at the relay. Oh well, they are nice day time running lights now

Still have to wire in the LED city lights. Once I find a good place for a switch, those will be wired in.

Pulled everything out, sanded most all of the rust away Painted flat black. It was all a brown rust color before because of the water leaks in the past.

Got the fog wiring fixed and working as it should. Damn DIY threads which are either missing pictures, or a lack of proper explanation.

Fixed the switch wiring, and immediately after that, the headunit stopped working. Working on a few possible solutions, as I was already able to open up WinCE on it and play with a few settings.

Car was washed yesterday and that's about it.

Riding with no music sucks. lol Ordered the "fix" for the headunit on an SD Card. That should be coming in soon hopefully.

Looking to start re-drilling the rear rotors today. If I get done in time, new rear brakes will be tossed on the car. The rears are squeaky as **** and it is driving me crazy... along with the lack of music in the car.. HA!

As a few of you may know, I live in the borough of a college town. Fun at times, but worrisome about drunk people messing with the car every Thurs-Sat night. Smoking my pre bedtime cig (12am-ish) a guy walked up to me and started asking about the Integra and how much he liked it. Sounded like he knew ALOT about the car like he has been stalking me or something. Maybe I am paranoid, but I am buying wheel locks today and buying the parts needed for a few kill switches, too. Can't be too careful

I know where he lives... btw the best kill switch is a battleship anchor with chain laying on top of what's left of the car.

West of Chester currently and I will wrap a chain around my front bumper instead. Should be good enough and shows I mean bidness

Headunit fixed and working 100% again btw. Didnt have as much time for the car as I thought this weekend and ended up just pulling off the rear brakes, re-greasing everything and re-installing. Hasn't made a single noise since.
