crazymikey : 1990 Accord LX

Here's the tan belts installed now. Also got a black glove box latch too. Interior swap is complete! Cleaned up all the seats with Simple Green Max. They came out nice!

Wow...That looks gooood. Really great work on the interior, bro. That color combo is tits!

[crazymikey]

Thanks. Yes, I absolutely love my interior now that it's done. Honestly, the only thing I would ever change would be if I had the chance to put in red seats and red door inserts, like DC2 Integra Type R seats. However, I like the more subtle luxury look, and from the outside, the white on tan looks great.

I'm waiting for the Tein springs to arrive, and once they are installed, this car is going to have a completely new attitude with the drop.

Great job on your car. Looks great.

My dad has a coupe similar to yours except he doesn't take as good as care of his. He redone the head and stuff several years ago with a bunch of used parts. the only thing thats ever happened to it was the fuel pump relay. Its just keeps on running.

But great job on your car. Keep it up.

Since it's January, plate renewal month for me. I had this car registered with my ZNG 940 plate that I had originally been issued when I registered the SE in January 2010.

I've only used that plate on my Accords, but now that the SE is sold for the 2nd time, and has now been wrecked (though repaired), I have decided to retire the plate in memory of the SE.

Switched up plates and now using the one issued to me when I sold the SE the first time and bought the Jetta, and then transferred to my Mazda 3.

For any confusion to anyone, Alberta uses a plate to owner system, where the licence plate belongs to the owner, not the vehicle it is affixed to. The owner is free to transfer the plate to any vehicle they own. I have 3 plates registered to my name, 2 of which expire at the end of this month, but are still in the system as registered to me, so I may renew them at any time if I decide to use them on a vehicle.

mmmm... leather interiors already eh? I liked!

[crazymikey]

Haha, the leather went in within the first week of owning the car.

damn that interior is sexy! KEEP IT UUUUUP!

[crazymikey]

This is how the interior should have left the factory.

Looks good i enjoy that interior i'm probably going to do mine Black/dark grey later down the road.Hope that paint stuck good keep it up.

[crazymikey]

So far the paint is holding up well. I did prep it properly, so that will help.

We'll see in time how it holds up on the door panel from constant touching. I wore the paint off the window cranks within a few days, so I managed to find a set of black cranks from a Civic.

Haven't really given you guys a decent engine bay pic lately.

It's absolutely filthy for my standards right now, but with the garage filled up with my roommate's Camaros, I can't bring it inside to work on it.

Anyways, these yellow plug wires are from an EG Civic. I painted the exhaust manifold heat shield yesterday. Didn't turn out how I planned. Much too glossy. Will redo it in a flat black.

And a random pic of the car taken from my basement window.

You have done what I have always wanted to do....

I have the Maroon belts from a 9293 and the interior trim to do the seat belt swap for my 90...

But but how did you nmount the anchor the belt machism to the body that goes right behind the seat on the 9091

[crazymikey]

Here's a rough idea of what I did. Hopefully you can understand from my drawings.

You no longer use the 10mm bolt in the top of the reel. Perhaps next time I have my panels out, I'll take pics.
