Alright soo Got my car in November, I'm still in Highschool, (yeah I'm probably the youngest on this site.) Anyways, I got a list of all the hidden problems my car had that my mom and uncle didn't believe me till I proved to them. Also some they noticed;

- No a.c, probably just needs freon.
- Messed up Tranny. They didn't believe me, my uncle thinks he knows about Honda's.
- Front and Rear Bumpers aren't held by screws.
- Back was dropped too much for the rims/tires it had. (Getting 18's this weekend and I have spacers in the back till I have enough money to get coilovers.)
- Radio was wired wrong. (Dad's gonna take care of that)
- Had a battery too small for my car. (Took care of that already)
- Dashboard is loose.
- Center counsole is loose. (Got that done)
- Needed new intake.
- Dash won't light up. (Installed a short ram intake)
- No trunk bedding or w.e it's called. Going to the Junk Yard this weekend to get one.)
- Needed an oil change.
- Needs a paintjob really badly.

Had the money to get a perfectly fine Eclipse with a brand new clutch,
But they decided to get me a car with all these problems -__-
Ohh well, now I love my CG6 :D.

Don't worry, all the problems with the Eclipse would have come later. lol

Welcome to the site, looks like you have several minor fixes, should be relatively easy though. For the dash, if you have no lights whatsoever, check your fuses.

Thanks to both of you, and yeahh they are minor but at a certain point they get annoying.
And I checked the fuses and all, seems like ima need a new dash. And I forgot to put that I have a cracked dash *** well -_-. Also, my E-Brake doesn't seem to work :(. Ohh and they tried stealing my car so my door only opens with the alarm. :lolhitting:

where
for the handbrake, open up the center console and pop the bottom piece out and adjust the nut, just did that and it worked wonders for my ebrake. you MIGHT need to take apart some of the center console.

I've been dying to do that already but I don't have any time. I'm hoping I can this weekend.
