*** Official - What Did You Do To Your EG Civic Today? ***

^^^ good stuff! Good choice for sub aswell! the max ya need for a sound system is just a small sub. I cant stand it when people put like two massive subs in their car, its so dumb, and sounds like utter crap. Oh look at me my sub can make my mirrors shake hahahaha... Friggin tosser's! /Vent lols!

In fact if you had the perfect setup with good speakers, sound deadener, solid speaker mount's, good quality speaker's, amp etc, you wouldnt even need a sub. I have a small sub though, cause i cant be stuffed going all out with my sound system just yet lawl

Feel free to ask anymore questions, sorry if my answers suck haha.

the newer model eg's dont have individual wiring, they have a plug and play loom at the door hinge.
so i think thats what his saying.

so if that the case, the inside door loom is removable and u can tuck your 12 gauge wire through

Not to worry, all sorted.

I did this

hey anyone here had any problems with theives? like gettin your lip, honda badge or fog lights stolen? Im thinking of adding them to my insurance list cause theyre quite expensive and ive heard faggots love to pillage hondas cause there parts are worth quite a bit of cake

old news man they steal lips and mudflaps around sydney

^ lol! Mudflaps??? there are some wierd fags about these days! i work at bilo and people even steal those go green bags hahaha

Thinking about finally buying some gauges for my pod.

Eh yeah, ****s will steal anything, pretty annoying, always scared to leave my car about ..

I put my rear speakers and trim panels back in, and also got to work on my audio setup, slowly getting there...

HAHAH I did bro !! looks BETTER than a JDM Amber clock !!

If only they made 1kg boxes of Tic Tacs so u could do your cluster ;)

^^Thanks! hahahahaha try office works, they sell jumbo sizes of everything lols.
The amber clock conversion only cost me 95cents, turned out friggin awesome

how exactly did you do it? haha.

and answer my question whore ;D

2 ways.
open it up and replace the plastic piece that sits inside.

or cut a piece out and tuck it in the opening gap so it sits on front.

like a boss.

maybe i should do it.

best part of the mod is that you get a packet of tic-tacs as a reward....

^^ hahaha lols! yeah get a pack of tic tacs bra! Take your cluster out, FIRST unplug the clock and hazard blinkers. To take the clock out theres 3screws. Open the clock, youll see a purple sheet of plastic snap it out with a flat head or something, get super glue hold the plates on the 4 plastic poles down and put glue over the tips of the poles so your clock screen doesnt move around. Then glue your tic tac sheet on top, make sure its flat and not touching the four pole things. Let me know if any probz, should be easy as frak though.
Enjoy your amber clock sexy xoxoxox

oh my.. so much work. **** it, i'll just keep putting stickers on my car .. LOL

haha! it only sounds like heaps of work. Infact, just take out your cluster (2 screws) and go from there, forget what i said just do it your own way. Its so easy its impossible to stuff up...almost lawl.

Havn't built a floor for the boot yet but i will be setting up a false floor when i get some time, i already have the mdf for it, it's just uni is back in so less time for me now.

Rear speakers in there at the moment are 5.25" JBL's, perfect fit.

thanks viinh for replying for me! =]

you can use any type of metal polish! mag polish.. aluminum polish.. just go autobarn supercheap and ask for metal polish! the brand mother is quite good =]

after using 2000 sand paper your metal piping should b very SMOOOOTTHHHH but looks very pale still.. that is because the sandpaper dust and and small dirt particles are still on the metal itself! by using polish it will clean all that off! use a microfibre cloth~ does wonders! the trick is too put a decent amount on ur cloth and go hard on the metal in one direction.. this allows the cloth/polish to collect the dirty particles off evenly and effectively.. you will notice quite easily cause ur cloth will turn BLACK and i mean BLACK. try to use 2 cloths... one to apply the polish on.. and a CLEAN one to wipe the polish off.. repeat this 3-5 times.. and you will get the mirror finish! give it a go! hell worth the effort! another trick is take ur time.. do it once do it right.. wen sand papering take ur time.. like me.. i went through 6 steps... 600 dry then 600 went and so on.

enjoy =]

Took off some decals today. Nothing major, gonna hopping list rear window once my new decals arrive :)

can you show me your tweeters/how they're mounted please?

Sure, ill get a pic for you tomorrow since it's pitch black. Theyre pretty much screwed straight onto the window corner of the door (black triangle part)

ah yeah, I was basically just wondering if you had the little plastic mirror covers that had the tweeter mount built in.
Look forward to seeing how they look, thanks mang :thumbsup:

Looks like whoever installed the (shit) system just (poorly) screwed them straight in. Definantly not oem or anything near as good lol.

I WANT MY EXHAUST, FU COURIER YB LONG.

I hate my "dont **** with oem" attitude cant workout how to mount my tweeters without drilling/screwing into oem parts

guys! i need a seat head rest asap, anyone got a spare that they can part with??

Do the inside first bro, if your cars gonna look crap at least be comfortable inside it (like mine :D)

Cheap sound deadening isn't really worth it, the jarcar stuff isn't as dense as the dynamat/roadkill and the adhesiveness isn't there, so in hot weather it might not hold especially on vertical surfaces.

No need for 400 bucks bro, thats if you wanna go all out.

Dynamat have kits for specific sections of the car you can work on.

Speaker kit roughly $25-$35 (2x 10"x10" (254mm x 254mm) pieces of Dynamat Xtreme)

Front doors kit roughly $100-$120 (4x 12" x 36" (305mm x 914mm) pieces of Dynamat Xtreme)

Trunk kit roughly $160-$200 (5x 18" x 32" (457mm x 812mm) pieces of Dynamat Xtreme)

Bulk Kit roughly $240-$300 (9x 18"x 32" (457mm x 812mm) pieces of Dynamat Xtreme)

Roadkill is abit cheaper and in my eyes the same quality (the alluminium backing feels thicker even on the roadkill). JBhifi have the universal pack (2x 12" x 24" pieces) for $70, cheaper even if you catch them on a car audio sale.

If you want better sound, do the doors and block service holes first.


ekcoupe, your eg makes me wanna have babies....

true!

derp, well, if i buy new carpet, im gonna get the sound insulation stuff,rather than underfelt, so gtfo deadening floor.

i geuss i could just do speaker mounts + doors, lexus thud + a bit of improvement LOL

gonna get myself some seat covers, head rest, and strut caps soon .

facebook me jew.

ekcoupe, thoes recaros are babe ;D

any amount of sound deadening will make a difference for the better

ill probably just do a little, a bit later, once i upgrade components + get an amp for sub.

right now need to fix anything broken/ugly! lol

seat covers ftmfw.

Nice wheels ekcoupe! What are they?

jeremy, you religiously post, but i havent seen much of your car, show me the money ;3

why do you want gauges.....

i'm not going to lie.... i just like glowing shit on my dash.

i really couldn't care less if i look like a complete twat, i think they look friggen sick on the pillar at night.

sick, just baught struts + headrest for my eg from a member. :D

now to get some seat covers for a bandaid fix.

If you bought it from dorikin then yeah he'll look after you man.

I got some TRD seatcovers if you want (lol)...

Sure did :)

LOL gtfo. Hurry up and get your door back in a drive for chow.

god damn I wish my stuff would hurry up and come !

Black carpet is next option I think ?! :)

black carpet with grey interior?

Where are you getting the black carpet from?

Probably Knox, your place sounds cheaper.. But I'm awkward on the phone and would rather pay 20 bucks for not having to do it LOL

Red, black carpet looks mint in egs IMO ;3

They are only at lansvale man, just go in and see them, speak to a guy named Julian (im pretty sure he's the owner).

You'll have to wait a few days for it to be made up though.

how's yours quality wise?

btw, mega happy post!!!

got my exhaust! :D:D:D:D

it does
but I think it looks silly with grey trim

i'd re-trim the door panel + speaker covers in the back. but the rest i cbf spraying the plastics.. too much work for that look tbh

i don't mind two tone haha.

i geuss ill see what happens when it comes time!

too easy, was just giving you my opinion, not telling you what to do

yeah i know dude :)

didn't mean to sound like a dick, i manage to come off as a **** online quite regularly haha.

removing rear interior plastic is the easiest. and sprayig you dont need to primer or sand down. ive done it. since end of july till now its still good not faded.

geuss i better stop being lazy then eh! haha.

priority for now but is to fix the hatch rear window, put my exhaust in (squeel), and bondo + paint my window sills, they're letting the car down so much..

school holidays in a month or so, hopefully can do alot of diy'ing :)
