Calling Shiny!

@Shiny, my man.. am I right in thinking you had a pretty slick 90's Accord?

I've just bought one but it seems to be a crossover model so I think it's a CE8 but I'm not sure. R reg, Euro Accord 2.0i SE.. looks like bum droppings at the mo, but that's kind of the point. Actually, I may be able to add a pic or two.

I wonder if you know where I may get parts from, or proper ways to search for parts on eBay? Every time I try all I get is drokking car mats..

The new POS

..and yes, I bought it from a field. I am in Cornwall, after all!

If it's parts you need, save yourself a metric ton of cash by searching for Rover 600 bits. They're the same car.

I have a 623 slowly rotting on my driveway ATM - aside from the H23 engine which is midway being removed for transplant into my 4th gen, the rest of it is up for grabs..

Ooh, top advice there Indy! Awesome, it's a facking Rover, so it's actually even worse than I first thought

Nice one @4th gen Doug. Are the lower window trims the same? These are forked on the n/s of the Ronda 6ccord.

Tbh, if you're keeping it, the key thing to bear in mind is this:

An H22 drops straight in ...

Ooh.. interestingly, I have a spare H22 (sans 'box and rocker cover (@Mudgey)) in my garage.. well, in my parts car, in my garage.

Surely it's gonna be a bitch to do though - OBD1 to OBD2, wiring looms, fuse box, drive shafts etc..? Do you happen to know if the 'box off of the F20 will fit an H22? Definite food for thought.

Bolts straight on like some sort of glove type hand covering.

I had one of these, same year too, cracking car and really good on a long cruise.

P.S. The Rover is a Honda, not the Honda a Rover (but I'm sure you knew that already

)
