How to search
Firefox - Push 'Ctrl+F' so thats Ctrl and F at the same time, that will bring up a search box at the bottom of your window, type in key phrases/words one at a time. Hit 'Next' or 'Previous' to go to next and previous result respectively
Internet Explorer - One day I might open it up and double check how to search; till now use Firefox :p

Adding things to the list
PM me with a link to the DIY and I will put it in the list if it is necessary
If there are multiple DIY's on the same subject I will pick the best one and use that; or if both or more are really good, I'll add both, but going to try to keep duplicates to a minimum

Mistakes/Correction
I have tried my best to put things into their respective categories. However if you see a mistake please tell me about it...

Somethings appear multiple times under General/Civic/Integra etc etc, if you find something that may not belong in a said category or something that should but does not PM me about it

I do this late at night; so if there's a dead or incorrect link please PM me about it stating the category and link in your message

Well documented - Easy to follow baby steps, photos and well detailed explanations
Reasonable documentation - Usually easy to follow steps, usually includes photos, explanations aren't terribly detailed, still straightforward
Before and after pictures only - Normally a detailed explanation of what to do, with only a before and after photo, no photos of each step
