Haha, that's kind of what I was thinking. You need to make up some spectacular name for it. "Righteous Lighting Tomato." Or something along those lines. ^_^

A spectacular name may take a while to conjure up :)

on a different note, I'm assuming I just use the stock corner bulbs for these 1 pieces? I know the main bulb is H4H, there are some in there already but I duno if they're any good. also where t.f. are the bulbs for the fogs? -confused-

But a spectacular name would be worth it. ;)

I'm really not sure about the bulb thing, I'm sure if you ask in that FB group someone will have the answer rather quickly.

new ICU and rear defroster switch arrived in the mail today, both in honda packaging so now I know they're brand new parts..they'd better work!

I bought an intake box from honda a while back, and instead of giving me the 94-97 box they gave me the 98+ box lol, drove all the way home just to find it didn't fit, and then they blamed me for ordering the wrong part. I only trust my intuition when it comes to OEM parts now, lol

well it's oddly warm today so I decided to install the new ICU and defroster switch AND IT STILL DOESNT WORK. Stupid mechanic who told me these were my problems obviously doesn't know shit. He can suck my non-existant left nut. I have a feeling the short in my electrical system is somehow related to these things not working as well. I'm so fucking fed up. I need to find somebody who's familiar with acuras and won't tell me some b.s. story

on a side note, i think it may be possible that my amp wiring is the culprit of the short. fuuuuuuuu

i am on the east coast! lol. well, sort of.


i just had an epiphany. looking at the wiring diagrams i noticed that the driver door dome light switch is connected to both fuse 14 and my icu, acts as a ground, and is known to become rusty etc due to it being exposed to the elements. next chance i get im ripping that sucker out to look at it.

FIXED THE PROBLEM!! turns out that when i plugged my tail lights back in i also plugged in the wire (blue/white) that powers the power antenna motor into an empty plug on the back of the left light. this was obviously a no-no and I didn't know at the time...I saw an empty plug and figured hm this must go together. It took me 7 months to realize this. Now everything is working! couldnt be happier.

some sad news to report. i was recently involved in a minor accident and nudged the back of a minivan. only damage to the other vehicle was a scuffed/scratched bumper. here's me! and now it's time to fix my car, again. lol one thing after another it seems. going to upgrade to a 92/93 bumper, already got my lights, need to find a hood and realign the frame.
