my e was having problems- running like shit; check engine light was on and what not---- anyways i just got it back yesterday; cost me a small fortune $1346.43 to be exact... there was a valve leaking and it wasnt holding compression in cylinder 1- so something about having the head re-machined/rebuilt etc... which i was fine with because the honda dealer told me to buy a new engine and wanted to install it and charge me anywhere from $2900-5500...
anyways i got these SI rims and wasnt 100% sure if they would fit over the brake pads but they did; man did the people at the tire shop not want to listen to me....
then i had this ceiling console i picked up from a junkyard for $17 dollars, so i tried installing it.....
with some help from my friend CHARBIZZZY and 3 trips to ace hardware (first trip i needed some wire for install; second trip i need some vampire wire clamps; third trip i needed some 5mm bolts)... anyways its installed and i am very happy with the results.......
followed the instructions someone made on elementownerclub.com
this is the scariest shit.... cutting a huge gaping vaginer in your headliner...
yadda yadda sorry no more step by step pics- just wanted it installed...
I like your element, and those acura wheels look great on it. And you know how us XB guys are and not liking the elements but yours looks good... I will have pics of my xb up soon
He forgot to take a picture of his bloody hand while doing this haha
damn hand--- something that really bothers me is a problem like a bloody hand
that interupts me in the middle of a project.... but like i say-- no good mod goes
unpunished.... i get hurt, cut, slammed, jammed, bumped, broke everytime i work
on a car....
haha mangina. bummer about the engine man, especially after the move and what not.
the install looks good...I didn't realize those didn't come in some models.
yeah dude; it was the worst timing (however good timing cause it broke when my GF got here; so i had her car to get to work- then was fixed the day before she started her new job).... so what do you do in this scenerio? is it good, is it bad luck??... maybe
convienent-bad-luck....
also yeah just like any honda the lower models just get raped of cool parts.... best thing about this mod is definetly the map lights!! so much light its awesome.....
Heck yeah, I took that thing for granted in ours. But I could definitely see going through the install if I didn't have it. It's definitely nice for the light and an extra spot to throw your shades......or install a licorice dispenser like on Wayne's World.
