Just ordered: JDM red 3rd brake lamp, JDM trash box (need to throw crap away anyways, might as well add some JDM bling), JDM road flare with bracket (one of those "just in case" things, but mostly for the JDM bling), JDM door handles, JDM air vent control stickers, ARC Magic authentic stickers to replace the ones on my winglets.
I'm going to be stalking my mailbox all next week.

Center console cleanup

Removed the center console to replace the A/T select level oval trim piece, where some bozo had gouged out the little key insert piece trying to remove it. Can't stand someone using the wrong tool and scraping things up, had to fix this! While the whole console was out I scrubbed it down with soapy water. Some residue and stuff needed cleaning up, vacuumed the carpet crumbs when I went to the carwash before putting it back.

Also, while I was inside, I want to replace the little match-head bulb that lights the shift positions under the console with an LED, what size is that, a # 74?

CAUTION: I found out to be careful when putting the 2 shift knob screws back in, DON'T OVERTIGHTEN THEM . I cracked the plastic ring on the lower one, but it still is firm in place, didn't make it loose, but use care here.

Installed a replacement plastic cover for the driver door and finished adding weather stripping to it. It still ticks me off that the body shop neglected to reinstall my factory one... On top of that, I accidently cracked my speaker's grill on the door panel upon reinstall. -.- Fortunately it isn't too visible once "popped back" so I won't be replacing it... yet.

While working on the door, I had a little 4-legged assistant come and check things out. She wanted to make sure that her Honda was still alright.

Winnar! But you lose a half point for "wiper relocation", kind of a funny way to put it.

Ooh, good catch on the tint. Previous owner did that, so I guess it's not bone stock...

LOL Thanks!

Well, that's kind of the only way to put it since its just the arm for the wiper is just being moved to the opposite side of the motor so the wiper will stay at its upmost position when off instead of being parallel(-ish) with the hatch's sheet metal; hence the word "relocation".

Oh, but it's so much more! It's a way of life...
