The reason why a lot of people end up using the Honda IM cover is because it's about half price of the Acura cover

Well that does change things. Wish I still had my job at Honda, could get this stuff cheaper and easier. But school

Replaced my passenger side axle and my intermediate shaft transmission seal tonight. Will hopefully do drivers side Thursday. Was just going to hold out and wait for the 6MT, but the car will be going close to 1,500 miles in two weekends, so best to change them now rather then later. And all the boots were torn.

Bump. Car made it to Ocean City and back in one piece, with no tickets from OCPD and only suffered a fog light issue. Over 1600 miles and 26+ hours of driving, this car is a champ. Still cant believe this is from a 219k V6 Auto, original motor and trans

Nice! Get every mile you can out of it and have a J32 ready to go when she starts to show her age.

But I want to do J32 things NOW though lol.

Ordered some parts for the swap. Clutch kit, and clutch related parts. Taking a few things off of the list.

So on the way back from H2O, I had a small electrical issue with my fog lights. The negative lead got fried in the relay, so that relay is useless at this point. I went ahead and pulled my entire fog light harness. I am throwing around the idea of retrofitting some sort of projector into the Civic fog light housing at this point and wiring it up to my Accord switch.

Any ideas or leads of a small projector would be appreciated.

Check out the blazer fogs Muhib used (& maybe KnightRyder), I think they were known for being on the smaller side.

I saw Blazer fogs and I think they might work. Morimoto makes a smaller version of the mini also, so i need to find out measurements

Morimoto matchbox, ford fusion (2nd gen i think), and es300. I own all three, I'll post information later. You should look into the morimoto xb led foglights as well. their blackhousing would work well on your front end and promo code XBFBHonda gets you 50 bucks off

Blazers are actually kinda long and outdated. Your best output will probably come from the ford fusion or matchbox projectors. plus the matchbox projectors are bixenon. Matchbox projectors are under 4" in depth, and 3" in width


I think you should look into those LED fogs though. About the same price as the matchbox fogs, and they'll require a lot less work to mount them
