Default Spring mods await...

Ok, so I'm starting my small conservative list of mods over the course of the winter to slap on this Spring. As well, I'm trying to replace some parts that aren't in mint condition or just need replacing...

EP3 Civic SI Leather wrapped steering wheel w/ red stitching. This came off my S2000 after I replaced it with a Personal Steering wheel + BOSS hub.


Spoon magnetic drain plugs... I'm itching to change the tranny fluid and put in the 'new' version of Honda MTF... she's also due for an oil change too...


AP2 Spark plug cover... I'm a sucker for gold stuff and I think it's better than the black spark plug cover.


K&N Air filter... that's a no brainer...got to replace my OEM filter!


Gauge panel (brand new) to replace mine which has a scratch on the side (bought the car like that)...


Berk's test pipe (thanks Jeff!)... I want to also get an Apex'i WS exhaust so I can install both in one shot.


Hondata IM gasket...(thanks again Jeff!) Dunno when I'll ever install this... perhaps when I'm bored one day .


And this is what I got from Chicago... 2005 Center console! <kid's voice>w00t!</kid's voice> I happened to be browsing the Chicago Craigslist and found someone selling an S2K center console. I decide to inquire on what year it was and asked for pictures, condition, etc. I went up to Chicago this past weekend and picked it up (for $80!) to replace the cruddy AP1 center console which has some blemishes on the boot ring. Note, I installed a new Civic Type-R boot on the center console (no boot was provided). I ordered a new hazard switch too since they are not compatible.




Anyhow, I still would like to replace the driver side roll hoop (it separated which is pretty common I heard), passenger side panel (with a 2006+ glove box), along with some new 17" wheels + tires... but we'll see what happens.

Is it Spring yet?

Also if you're going to sell your OEM steering wheel, AJ might buy it. He's been trying to talk me out of mine!!!!

Maybe... I kinda like the idea of keeping it around to swap out. Mind you, I wouldn't sell it with the airbag. If AJ only wants the steering wheel itself, I know someone who has a RSX leather wrap wheel for sale (pretty much the same thing... just different leather).

Hmmm.... I doubt it. The only reason why I say that is in the past, I NEVER get to do my own stuff at install days where there is a group. I rather come out to the install day and lend a hand and not bother trying to get my stuff done. Make sense?

Thanks.... I'll let AJ know. I'm sure he doesn't care about the airbag.
