LEDs are fine. There will come a time when you won't be able to buy filament bulbs, so they're not in a position to ban LEDs!

That's the stuff.
Use that and the conditioner after however long it tells you to wait between the 2 of them.
The shinyness goes after a few days.

Shininess already gone, Iain - lol

Not bought Gliptone conditioner yet ...

Ridiculous how hard some bits are to get for a 3g.
Rockauto have some listed, all in US/CA though, so would take a few days for delivery.

Yeah, I imagine it's one of the metal canister filters that has fittings for 2 banjo bolts, my 3G Accord and 2G Prelude use these as do some similar age civics etc. I don't know if there's any variation in how they mount to the chassis though.

*Edit:

A quick check on Lings suggests your fuel filter is Honda part 16900SF1E02. You should be able to run that through google to find some aftermarket equivalents which may be quicker/cheaper to obtain, at a glance Blueprint part ADH22319 and Mahle part KL 562 should do the trick but I'd double check them against what is in your car already.

For reference you're looking for something like this in the engine bay:

I'd check the orientation of the brackets on the top, and the approximate size and shape if possible.

I did a check through Eurocarparts, importcarparts, japarts before rockauto.
No joy.
One of the jap specialists (import or jap, I forget which) had the air filter in stock though (I've noticed before that is hard to get hold of also

).

I haven't looked on ebay but you could probably find one on there.

EDIT:
Now looked.
Here's one
