i likey this one. looks good man

Thanx alot guys. I got the tunnel ready to weld into my car and I have the accord blower motor as well as the prelude heater core ready to go. Since I don't drive the car all of the time and the a/c is long gone I'm gonna do my own version of the hvac box. Basicaly I'm just gonna build my own box that will only blow threw the defrost vents housing only a blower motor and a heater core. The temp itself will still be able to go up and down but that is the only location hot air is gonna come from. Doing it this way should minimize the amount of work I have to do under the dash as well as alot of wiring headaches. I'm thinking thick plexi will do the trick for the box itself but we'll just have to see. I'm keep everyone updated as I get more done.

I don't want you guys thinking that I've given up on this project. I have alot of family stuff going on so its had to be put off for a little while. It will be done soon though.

Almost ready for flock

[illestatus]

looking good

[ChIoVnIdCa]

The final covering will be a material called flock.

I flocked my accord dash...... IMO just cover it in a suede type material.... It will last longer/ look better...

[moetan]

I thought about suede but thats what wherm did to his and I don't wanna feel like I am taking somone elses unique idea away from them.

[gloryaccordy]

Great work man great work

Bro you will be the second dude with this mod, I think going suede is OK

On a bb6 dash swap can you still keep your cupholders?

[TheNextEpisode]

And its in memory of a friend that had a bb6.

That's pretty cool motivation.


The latest pictures look great, the dash looks like it was always a single piece. Good stuff.

[thepowderblue]

cup holders and do you have to sawp a harness?

[moetan]

doing this swap you lose the cup holders but i'm also doing the entire center console so I get the cupholders from the prelude. As far as the wire, EVERYTHING is different. Plugs, colors, you name it. I am in the process of making a complete conversion harness so I can use off of the bb6 controls. I think that the hvac is gonna be the biggest thing to finish it off. If anyone has ?s there are two of us on this forum that have done this so hopefully we can help. Thanx alot for the interest guys.

Here is the latest progress.
