Must be hard working in one of these:

I've probably missed it, but what colour? If any change at all that is.

Not sure I understand that picture... :(

And it's pretty much going the same colour, it just needs a freshen up, and the welding done. The arches are the only bit of welding I wont be doing myself mainly because they're external bodywork and I would definitely make a hash up of it, it was hard enough replacing the wings, let alone a rear panel :lol:

Quick thought, wonder if those electric (heated) seats would fit into a '91 3g 'lude?

How you doing your pics? With washing machine? :D :D

Good luck with respray and keep your eyes on it after. I know other drivers like to crash freshly resprayed cars :twisted:
Mine was repainted twice in about 2 months

Oh I get the picture now haha it's a fisheye lens, iphones are absolutely jobby for photo angle, need a wider angle to get certain pictures when there's not much space, never would've got the seats in the picture like that without it :P

The seats aren't heated :( they're just electric to move forward / back and tilt etc! They just need an earth and live connected. :P

Would they fit a 3g I still wonder, may just be a question of the hole centres being the same on the seat rails. Pop up headlights may be the same too. I don't totally trust howmanyleft.com, as its figures sometime seem a bit adrift.

Well they don't fit the Accord, not a straight bolt in anyway, the base is narrower, the angle of the curve on the base is pretty much spot on though it just needs the holes in the floor to be closer together on quick inspection. Might make a custom base instead undecided yet!

Definitely making progress on the 'deck that's for sure. Looking forwards to seeing it when it's done, especially with the colour scheme you're going for on yours compared to mine :D

The seats are awesome too, must admit, I wouldn't have thought to use those seats, but they work in there nicely!
