  1. Is there some kind of mounting plate to go between the mirror and the door? Been a while since I've had a mirror off...
  2. Yeah, will save someone a lot of time and effort as well.
  3. Fair play mate. Looks properly wet in that last pic
  4. Hi there, welcome along Would be cool to see some pics of your cat and get a build thread going Little bit here on roll bars here : https://civic5.com/forum/topic/12420-aftermarket-rear-arb/?do=findComment&comment=307790
  5. Yeah, I hear what you say, but you can buy more body parts for an Austin montego than you can for an M. There's the rover / MG cross over on stuff as well that should improve things. I dunno though... Maybe things will improve now there's less of them being broken with decent 2nd hand options.
  6. That's good news mate. Hope it goes okay. I wonder how we can raise the profile of the market for after market spares for these cars... It's getting harder to find parts if they aren't ones shared with eg/dc2. @Dave do you have any ideas?
  7. Might be a bit of a long shot, but this seller has lots of sill repair parts for different civics (no mb ones listed), and also sells rear wheel arch repair panels for ma/mb civics. Might be worth giving them a message to see if they can help? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/273993503384
  8. Think I must have had my angles all messed up looking at them earlier
  9. I used to use (clean) nappies in my boot... Those suckers are absorbant! But I used to have a mini pool in my wheel well.
  10. Deffo a sign of the times. Think that anyone with sills in good nick should be filling them with waxoil or something and protecting the outside.
  11. The first garage that I had working on mine were (apparently) able to get some replacement chassis rails (just didn't weld them to good metal.....) but whether they were car specific or not I wouldn't know. Although from the pics yours seem okay? Just the outer sill is gone?
  12. That sucks Is it just the front that's wet? Do I remember that the sunroof drain runs that way, or is it the passenger side?
  13. Last time I checked on rimmerbros.com they didn't have the sills advertised, but might be worth giving them a call to double check.
  14. Yeah, think they can handle the decals quite well these.
  15. Looks like a belter that. Nice choice sir
  16. Yes, spill the beans. Something smaller for easier monthly wraps?
  17. You'll find a wiring diagram in the service manual here : https://civic5.com/forum/files/file/1-honda-civic-1995-2000-aerodeck-service-manual At least for the civic anyway.
  18. Cheers Dave. In a way it all feels like fate - if it hadn't been for the first place doing such a shocking job, and a rubbish bodge, I wouldn't have found out how bad mine was, wouldn't have found this garage, and wouldn't have ended up finding out about @Grant amazing shell. Wouldn't have ended up spending as much either like, but at least now she's good for another 20 years (fingers crossed).
