^thanks

Got some new seats today... mint condition Integra GSR Leather Seats! Picked them up for $175. I'll take better installed pics tomorrow during daylight. Oh, and the guy I bought them from showed me his garage... he has a JDM Civic SiR! Got some pics (dim lit garage on a crappy cell phone camera)











SiR:

Alright, update:

I ran all of the wires for my OEM power lock conversion and have the driver's side lock mechanism, the control box, and the switch. I got it working, and in the mail I have the passenger side mechanism coming. While installing the driver's side mechanism, I broke a weak spot on the interior door handle, and broke the mount on the exterior handle.
I have 2 used exterior handles (because I found both of them in black for cheap) coming in the mail, and also I have 2 new OEM interior handles coming in the mail, because the ones in my car are grey and don't match the door panels, and I was buying black for the one so I might as well get both. Also, the tabs that hold them sturdy against the door were broken on them so they were always a little flimsy. That will be fixed once I get the new ones. After that I will have fully functional OEM power locks and new interior and exterior handles.

I also got my black/chrome Honda S2000 Emblems in the mail the other day and they are both installed now. Right now, my car is at the dealership getting my free new seatbelts installed (if yours don't retract when you get out of the car well, Honda will clean them first, and if that doesn't work they will replace them). I just got my OEM Del Sol mudguards in the mail and when I get my car back later today I will install them. If it is before dark when that happens, I will get pictures today of all of the stuff I just mentioned. If not, i'll get pictures tomorrow.
Finally, FINALLY, I can start buying more turbo stuff next week (spent all this weeks pay on the new handles and lock mechanism).

Thanks man, I put a lot of effort into my Del Sol. I'm glad it has paid off in the appearance aspect so far. I could have never made it look the way it does without being a part of this forum... being a part of this forum and seeing other members' clean looking cars has made me love that sleek look. Now for some performance!
