Finally got my finger out and made a start to the engine bay and WOO. can't believe the transformation with such a little thing of painting the rocker cover

Lets have them!

have the car back now but its gunna take me a while to post it. will hopefully get around to it this week

EBay dude.

In my case the footwell was getting wet. Behind the glovebox was soaked and the car was extra steamy with the heating on. It was until I had water dripping on my shoe from the fuse box under the steering wheel I realised I had a problem. Under the plastic scuttle panel passenger side is a small drain for water to run down the wing and onto the floor. This is pretty narrow and gets blocked with crud. This causes a build up of water which when bad enough to overlfow into the heater vent and land in the blower motor. When you have the blower on to clear the windscreen or to keep your toesies warm, it blows all this water out through the pollen filter, this is where it drips down. An easy way to check is to reach behind the glove box and unclip the pollen filter clip at the bottom, pull it forward and you can just about get a digit or two in there. If the filter feels wet or you feel moisture, chances are your scuttle drain is blocked. Don't take this as Gospel, it's my 0.02 from my experiences.

Oh gonna b a tough call this month

Cool! Updated your post, if you click on edit you'll see how to add the video in then

Oh dear! I'll have to keep an eye on mine then. Cheers Dave! The welding isn't too big of a deal, it's a couple of small patches under the car, but I do live near the sea so I'd rather not risk another MB3 situation!

Oh and gonna paint the heat shield as well as it looks bad against the nice looking rocker cover now

Gonna do all the usual brackets red. Also got set of red ht leads which I'm gonna fit. And maybe some time down the road I'll get red coolant hoses. Any ideas where does them that are expensive. Working on a very tight budget lol . Also getting a red and black oil cap in next couple of days.

Never said it was a big list, just that I had chopped it down a lot.

Well its gone from: Discs Pads Braided lines Some needed welding To: Some needed welding That's a 75% reduction in list size!

I might've spent £250 at MTEC recently and reduced my to-do list by a considerable amount!

She's finally running! How do you post youtube links on here again?

I'm not doing this again though....

Blue brackets!

Well decision has been made and the black civic (shadow) WINS.

Here you lot go then. I got myself a genuine Mugen twin loop back box and its lush I can't wait to get it in once I ring up the exhaust place

I was going to disappoint you all but I think I'll stretch the anti-hype out for a bit longer. Meanwhile, my car has been given a Personal touch.
