    Richard's '02 V6 Coupe EX-L

    Been a minute, since I had an update on this car lol. I thought the Accord has been pretty much the same, ever since I bought the CL a few years ago, but I guess there were a little of bit of things that were done to the car such as getting: - DNA MOTORING headlights w/ built-in DRL + clear...

    Hello from Germany!

    Welcome to the site. Loving the wheels. What are those? I love how the EUDM coupe's trunk taillights don't light up with the parking / headlights turned on. Was something to do with the rear fog lights regulation iirc.

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Hey, thanks for checking. Yea, I've been only posting stories and highlighting them these days on IG haha. This car has been very super reliable, useful, and comfortable lately, compared to 4 years ago from day one. My Accord can still run (shift lol) okay, so it's taking forever to get the swap...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    It's hard to start sometimes, but it gets hard to stop, once you start going, right? :lawl: Decided to renew the 22 year old shifter cable. The cable on the car isn't falling apart or anything right now, but the shifter jerks sometimes when it's shifting to the 4th gear. Was planning on simply...

    RR's '99 coupe EX-L

    Not so sure if I ever revealed my age up here, but I'm 46.:hide: There were two major changes I noticed to my body, when I entered into the 40's -- joints & muscles. Used to have no problems of working on the engine bay by standing and leaning against the bay for hours in my 30's. but not so...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Got this thing at a Japanese dollar shop called Daiso to remove some rust in the engine bay. This is a half-way progress, but I ended up almost polishing up the entire thing lol. I'll try to work on a few more areas, when my lower back allows me lol. Updated the OP for a little bit...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Nothing much, besides a casual inspection, after removing the face plate and the top head. I was just manually checking the mechanism of the disk changer and the disc ejecting assembly. I ended up removing 2 discs that were left out within the slots, but that's about it. Oh snap, maybe it's...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Removed the defective '01 HU I bought, and reinstalled my original '03 HU that I recently disassembled & extracted two old discs. Wow, it's working! I didn't think I could fix it tbh lol. This playa's in the game. let's go! :burnout:

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Thanks! Yea my threads became like resumes of my cars lol. It really helps me keep track of what I've done, and figure out what to do next! Well, all of the 2nd gen CL players are compatible to each other, because they basically share the same part numbers. Also all of the pinouts are the...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Here's the '01 CL non-NAV HU I bought in order to resolve my '03 HU's CD playa being n/a. It was filthy as hell, when I unboxed the package, so I cleaned the hell out of this sucker. A lot of screws and panels need to be removed lol. I had to take this pic to memorize which ones to go back...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Forgot to document this dent removal project I've had a few weeks ago lol. A clueless kid slammed into here with his bicycle. He was coming from a downhill with a full speed, not knowing there would be cars making a turn. There was quite an impact, but he stood right up, and started to walk, so...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Been self-complimenting the engine bay lately, ever since I removed the hood liner lol. Then, I noticed that there were two sections where water has been getting into the bay! One of the sections was by the driver side's head light, where it meets the hood panel when it closes. The headlight...

    2002 Accord 4 Door Special Edition- need a new alternator

    I can almost be sure to say, pretty much anything made out of that country is very hard to call things "genuine". Did you know that they have a fake Disney land? Their cars look all copied out, too lol I remember Japanese brands did outsource cheaper production lines in China at one point...

    2002 Accord 4 Door Special Edition- need a new alternator

    I would stay away from the current Denso products. It's because their parts aren't really made in Japan anymore.. At least my new Denso ignition coils for my CL weren't.. They only lasted for a few years until last month.. On the other hand, my Accord's 22-year-old factory coils are still rock...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    My driver's side windshield washer sprayer has been clogged since day one, 4 years ago, and I FINALLY fixed it! Here are some pics! Removed and ditched the 21-year-old nasty hood linear, so I could clean out the build-ups in the tube with the air compressor & the pipe cleaner brush to get the...
