  • 350, 89s did not have rear shoulder belts (that is why I have 89 rear speaker grilles in my 93). Welcome to the world of feedback (computer controlled) carbs. Search for the Aspire conversion, and no more pressing. Use this site as a reference and I am sure you will save yourself a lot of unwelcome surprises.

            They're in storage about 25 miles from here and so they're not readily available. You might Google or search eBay for early 90's Civic four door. The driver's door electric window arm rest is flat to accommodate four window switches, but the rear driver's side matches the right side. I got both left side arm rests should I decide to try put van type electric window openers in the back.

                That sort of thing happens here all the time too. I've seen the temperature go from -30ºF(-34ºC) to +30ºF (-1ºC) in an hour thanks to one of our beloved chinooks. Another example... 86ºF (30ºC) on Monday then 20ºF (-7ºC) with 6" (15cm) of snow on Thursday of the same week.

                  • Today I made some front brake lines, tomorrow some rear ones.
                    Today installed the drivers side Rio strut with Aspire hub, new brake hose, and new inner/outer tires rods.
                    Yesterday I installed the Aspire brake booster and master cylinder. Patched a hole in the drivers floor board.

                        Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

                        • Replaced my smashed fender today and replaced the stock paper-like speakers with some nice Kenwoods. Replaced the right rear wheel cylinder and two brake lines. Now I have brakes!

                            • Replaced Radiator & lower radiator hose.
                              lower hose was a pain with no lift.
