#236170 I finally got round to swapping over my wing mirror.

Before:

After:

Also my passenger window wouldn't wind down correctly, I suspected a bent arm so I took it apart for a quick look to find this;
Image

I straightened it back out, popped it back in the rail and greased it. I thought about reinforcing it but there wasn't much space between the moving arms so I decided not to in-case it fouled.

Thanks for looking :thumb:

I wanted to sell it and keep it going but no-one could sort transport as it wasn't a rolling shell.

You never know, once its recycled it may be part of a new Honda :)

The shell was pretty rotten dude.

Today it took one step forward and two back!

Finally managed to remove the crank pulley bolt, took the engine over to a mates garage and he wipped it off with a 3/4 impact gun.

Once it was back I bolted on the inlet manifold, alternator, starter motor and various pipes and it started to look like an engine I was so excited!

On the other hand, when taking the engine to the garage i dropped it on its side, which resulted in a smashed vtec solenoid and snapped rocker cover breather.
