If I come across a good deal on a set I will get them. I want some Rota Circuit 10's/Work CR-KAI in Bronze in 15x7. Might settle on some EP3 OEM Rims. It depends on what I can find.
I also like the head unit, Got a good deal on it, and it happens to be a Panasonic, a Brand I like alot.
I have Wanted one for a Good while. I found this one and got a deal I couldn't pass up.
Today I learned how to take the dash apart at the Junkyard. Then proceeded to take my dash apart. I Replaced the Broken Radio/Climate control Bezel. Also replaced the Bezel around Instrument Cluster/Air Vents.
The whole dash removal/repair/install was not near as hard as I thought it would be. It only took about an hour and a half or so.
Looks much much better, Not hard assuming it was broken before I guess.
When I started, well a little into it.
Part way into the removal/repair.
Pics of the dash removed and new Bezel installed.
Almost all there, Radio Head unit needed to be installed, as did the glove box. When I was in there I redid some of my Wiring for the Radio.
Everything is all put together now. I didn't take pictures when it was all put together, Will take some and upload them in the morning.
I SO SO Need to get a LX/EX/Si Cluster w/ Tach and a Clock. the DX instroment cluster is so lame.

More pics as promised
No more broken bezel, no more broken vents, Need to clean some tape goo off the climate control panel, but shes all together.
The Grey replacement bezel is a different color, a Darker Gray and has a fake wrinkled leather texture to it. Over all I think it looks good with the lighter gray pieces in it.
Cant wait for my lowering springs to get here

yay, another sedan!
about replacing the front handles with the rear ones (key hole shave) you actually have to modify the brackets inside. One of the brackets, specifically the one near the the key lock, needs to be moved upwards.
Im going to a diy today or tommorrow the whole thing, but its definetely a good idea and it looks naice!
keep us updated!

Thanks for the info. I will look forward to the DIY. I already have the Door handle in place. I will most likely leave the frount door handle in place as is. I removed the lock on that side as been destroyed. So the key hole goes to empty dead space.I might cover it up with bondo and paint it black agian. However after checking out your DIY I might go that path agian.
This Sedan is cleaning up well. I want to get new seats. Will probally go with DC 4door Seats when I can find them on Craigslist or in a Junkyard.
Still waiting on my Lowering springs to arrive. Should have them Wedesday/Thursday. Car will be getting Tinted Soon as well. Most likely Next week.
Civic-EG will be getting some Sedan Lovin.

What steelies are you talking about. The OEM DX 13" steelies with a 5min spray paint job or the EX OEM 14" with Silver Hubcaps?
I assume the Coupe EX 14" Hubcaps. I like them, They remind me of Blades
I like them much better then the 4 door EX 14" Hubcaps.
Hit up the Junkyards, I check out the local ones weekly and scope out any 92-95 civics that come through. Still need a LX/EX/Si Cluster
Sorry about your EG8, I love working on my Sedan.
I was planning on have the tinting professionally done the at the same place my Coupe was done at. That tint came out well. I put up tons of window stickers at work, I have thought about putting the tint on myself, However will probably leave it to the pros.
Should have more updates soon. Lowering Springs didn't show up today meaning they should be here tomorrow. Will have pics of when they go in. If they come in tomorrow they will be going in Friday. Might be temporally jacking the EX Cluster and Denji's from my Coupe.

Oh My! I got another set of Denji's and Webs! To bad shes still Riding 4x4 style.
Oh Wait, That's where they came from.
I am going to be Selling my Coupe. Therefore I swapped over my Denji's and Web's. If the coupe doesn't sell soon, I will move some more of my JDM stuff on to my Sedan and lower my price on the coupe.
Lowering springs should be here on the 31st. Company who sold them shipped them out the 26th, I paid for them the 21st.
Awesome customer service random ebay company.
