The left-rear windshield molding arrived in lightning time from Japan so I went ahead and replaced the original molding. Aside from that, my instrument cluster lights have been flickering and I believe the alternator is the culprit after doing some research. My battery is an OEM Honda unit and it is only 2 months old. My battery ground cable was looking janky so that was replaced, but it didn't make any difference in regard to the flickering lights. In other news, I had my headlights restored and ceramic coated yesterday, May 16th, 2020, by Anthony Zichella. If you're in SoCal and in need of headlight restoration, give Anthony a holler and he'll take care of you.

Lots of updates for the S2000...

I picked up some Moddiction mirrors to help with glare from headlights while driving at night.



I also purchased an ASM oil filter bracket. I tighten my oil filters to spec, but I like the peace of mind with this bracket.



Philips Ultinon LED reverse light bulbs...



Comparison to stock...



Spoon Sports rear-view mirror to complement my Moddiction mirrors...



New cabin air filter housing; the gasket on the original housing was toast! I also replaced all of the windshield cowl clips; some were missing and some were broken.



The original interior light assembly was beat, so I decided to replace that as well.



New parts feel so good!



Philips Ultinon LED light bulbs here as well...



Spark plug tube seals and valve cover gasket kit for my valve adjustment. We found only one exhaust valve, on cylinder two, requiring adjustment; everything else checked out! No news is good news!



Valve cover gasket kit...



Looking good for having almost 160K miles! I've also cleaned my engine bay since this photograph was taken.





I found a really good deal on a new VTEC solenoid and didn't want to pass on it; mine had been seeping oil for the past few months and I wasn't having it any longer...





I love new parts!



Installed...
