my entry is going to be grants http://civic5.com/forum/index.php/topic/7912-grants-vti-pb-decked-deck/

@EmZvr , yours is going in to the hat, awesome transformation over the time you've had it.... http://civic5.com/forum/topic/9591-emzvr-mb3-new-thread/

Here I go again. Time for installing the unit. After soldering the potentiometer and three other connections I went looking for the confirmation of what Haynes says. All the connections were as I expected. First thing I clonnected the earth from my kit to the nearest available bolt; see pic After I realized I have to cut off existing control unit in order for those two not to work simultaneously I stole power from that connection (yel/blu) and chose low motor output (blue) to be used while working intermittently. You can always use the high speed one (blu/yel). Important! I did not cut the motor wire (blue). As you can see in the above pic there are two yellow/blue wires. Confusing isnt it. Counting from the right (the bigger wiper plug) there is blue - low speed, blu/yel - high speed and yel/blu - 12v from the switch. Those 3 are the only wires you are interested in. Almost done, all connected Only the potentiomenter left to be fitted. The position is really all about personal preferences as well as the look. I just picked what I had. And the job done. Two comments I need to make. Only 2 pins on the potentiometer need to be cnnected; the middle and any of the other ones. Whichever side you pick will make the wipers go more or less often depending which direction you turn the knob. Still, a matter of ones prefernces. Secondly, the low end is pretty useless because the magic happens every 1 or 2 sec. Thats it I guess. I hope somebody will make use of this idea. If not at least I contributed a bit. Wish I could do more.

I nominate everyone on civic5 that hasn't won't this year can't upload pic so if krzys can go through all project threads and sort that for me

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll give it until the end of today, get the voting going until the end of the week then crack on with COTY.

Nice LC1 clocks,been thinking how they would look in the Deck ,and now i know=very nice

There are company's out there that do the kits for honda, it's just that I can see through the prices they charge, so I can do it cheaper with better quality parts.

Hi Tom, sidelights are in the original position just with brighter led bulbs hidden away. Thanks for all the comments chaps. Much appreciated

Really digging the boot lighting! Much better than the feeble festoon bulb on the one side!

Thanks @philgor and @phill1975, i was thinking about both Emzvr and Grant so you made my job easier!

One seven seven, Seven Seven seven

New wheel

It's better to remove it and soak it in something like WD40 / degreaser or etc. That way you'll be sure it will be cleaned properly. I left mine overnight soaking. Sure some coolant will spray from the hoses when you remove the iacv but nothing to worry about.

Cheers lads! On another note, a new resistor pack verses old burnt out one... God its good to have all 4 settings at last!! Lol

I love colder weather it means i dont sweat my arse off wen working on the car or at work it just hertz wen u bash ur cold hand

yeh no photo's been so busy and its been raining pretty much non stop for about a week

Once I've changed a few bits to stop the little oil leaks, i want to clean it up and get bust with the polishing again to get back to this
