Next was a leather deck interior swap with armrest and door cards (I spent about half an hour writing this part out then deleted it by accident in one second so this will just be photos) This bracket on the rear deck needed a bit of dremel action Also, the rear seat restraining tabs are too big to hold the seats, guy sent me the aero deck ones the next day for free, top guy! Rear door cards were electric and I needed winders so put some holes in them, now they have winders! Might have broke the handle a bit too but threaded a tiny bolt on the end of the rod and now it works fine Got the full interior for £80 and I’d say it’s a huge upgrade from the beige cloth interior, the switches on the centre console don’t work as the connectors were too big for the plugs but I can bodge them at some point I’m sure

Next was a machine polish as it deserved it I thought, found an OG spoiler and some paint matched spray that turned out to be almost as old as the car and didn’t quite come out as I would have liked so I’ll have that to repaint at some point, but looks infinitely better on the car than without a spoiler. Also new Ali steering wheel that’s surprisingly nice for 20 quid, only issue was the wheel hub, I bought 3 different ones and it ended up being a Land Rover wheel hub that fit in the end, believe it was a 15mm wheel hub for the mb2. Strange little car! Pulled a couple badges off of the boot too, the civic ghost will need a good cut a few times to take it completely off but doesn’t bother me, can only see it if you’re up close, I’ll get round to it eventually. Can also see how bad the alloys are in a couple of the photos

Next was wrinkle red-ing the rocker cover and fitting new rover gasket as I couldn’t find a Honda one for cheap. Ali exhaust mani and downpipe went on next along with new plugs and HT leads I had made by a guy on eBay, brilliant quality would highly recommend! And again, they were the only upgraded version I could find, and cheaper than OG leads too so no brainer there!
