lol, I did initially think about the ful leather, but tbh, the current seats are so comfy, and they hug in the right places when needed, I'm just gonna keep them for now. If they start to wear (as they always do) i'll either get the leather int from the ES, or put the interior in for a leather retrim.......black bolsters/dark red middles Still planning what mods she'll be getting. Thinking about the grill (which I'll get from accessoryzone) hid kit (again accessoryzone) the full vti-s lip kit for deffinate, and maybes a change of alloys. will keep the current ones tho as theyre mint! Once its needed, the brake discs will be changed for EBC discs all round.Stainless exhaust if I can get one made thats got the near enough the same noise levels as standard one has. Induction kit,engine bay hose kit (samco). Engine will be staying standard, as it's plenty fast enough as it is for what i need anyways. Will uprate the speakers at some point too, and possible light tint for windows. All the mods will be quite subtle

Well, here's the build up of my first MB6. Only had her 5 days and already i'm in love with her!!! lol Oh, and she's been officially named Ruby! Goes with her Ruby red paint (ok, I know it's sicillian red!! ) I'm no stranger to M's have had my MA8 civic (blue Betty!) for around 5 years! Right, heres the info on her when I got her. 1998 S-reg sicillian read pearl 39,000 miles Full service history, 2 owners from new (Honda being the first, up to 6,000 miles, then the owner I bought her from at 38,500 miles) standard appart from A/M remote alarm imobiliser with ultrasonics (NOW REPLACED WITH NEW UPGRADED CAT 1 SYSTEM), detachable towbar (proper one from Honda , which will be coming off!) My Plan is to make her a VTiS replica, but in met red, instead of pirates black. So here she is This was on the way home at some motorway services (I spy Dawns aerodeck in the background! ) First mod was to ditch the orange side indicators for nice clear ones Next, it was onto the interior. She's spotless inside, but still gona give her a good clean, so heres how she looks now....I'll post up another once she's been fully valeted The one part of the interior that I wanted to change asap was the stereo! Was a pioneer good bit of kit in it's day, but i like me Cd's and MP3's so out it came and in its place, my Pioneer mp3 head unit (keeping it kinda oem, as it's still a pioneer ) And thats all the mods so far...........but there will be more to come. She's getting a full VTI-S body kit, VTI-S alloys (early style ones) poss tints, and a few other bits and bobs. Heres some pics of how she looks now after a wash! MODS SO FAR: Smoked side indicators Pioneer MP3 head unit (iPod compatible) (UPDATE: Now Alpine CDE9850Ri CD/MP3 with full iPod control)(Update again, now got a new Pioneer DAB/CD/USB head unit!) Powerflow Stainless steel exhaust (cat back) VTiS lip kit (side skirts still to be fitted) VTiS floor mats VTiS gearknob VTiS Speedline chrono alloys fully refurbed and powder coated in white ) TypeR Gear gator with red stitching Full leather (from ES model) fitted, along with the black door cards Honda horn (peep peep) removed, replaced air horns Lowered on Full MeisterR Zeta S coilover suspension

Not done much to her for ages, so thought id better get posting! Ok, today I fitted the new front brake pads, pretty straight forward job, but why is always the case when i do the pads, the blooming sliders on the caliper are always buggered! Did the N/S, they went on fine, sliders working perfect. went to drivers side.....flippin nightmare! Sliders were seized up solid! managed to eventually get them free'd off, which im happy about cos normally they have to be replaced. Which means buyin the complete caliper bracket kit as honda wont sell the sliders seperate. Anyways, got it back together, and brakes are superb now! did the 50mile bed in, and now it pulls up brilliantly! Also got the outer cv joint rubber boots replaced, as they had split. Got the garage to do them tho going to get the bonnet, front bumper, rear bumper and door mirrors prepped next week ready to get them into paint. Also got the insides of the alloys cleaned while they were off, so thats another job done Watch this space.......the painting will be starting soon

the clear/crystal ones in your pic look like Late rover 400/45. They changed them very late on, think it coincided with the changeover to bmw wiring connectors etc. Best bet is to take your original into scrappy with you to make sur you get the right ones. If buying A/M ones, explain that you only want the rover ones if it's for the early 400. You can point them to this site if they refuse to believe you that there are differences mate Send company the pics aswell, so they have something to go by too Or find an accord, these fit ours too
-
I can confirm MB and MC civics use exactly the same side indicators guys They also fit the MA civics. Only Rover changed them between models/years
