LOLLLL u did all that on a 2004 euro?

Newer cars need beefier alternators compared to older cars. So new cars are more succeptible to dimming problems, especially one that is built to a low price with puny alternators (Euro). I changed the cheapest parts first so see if I could fix it. So yeah, I did it to a 2004 Euro, because the lights were dimming. If it wasn't dimming, I wouldn't have touched it.

We have a CD accord too. Damn thing is built so nicely. Starter motor is so beefy, the engine kicks over with only 1 turn of the starter. The stock battery is almost twice the size of that in the Euro!

Just changed its fuel filter too, and it pulls as hard as when it was new 12 years ago!

mine is a gem, Robert @ Hanny's has only ever rebuilt my starter since Ive had it (5 or 6 yrs me thinks). as Peter said to me, hard to find and also hard to sell (manual) even harder for my old man to steal it from me (doesnt drive manual) hahahahahahaha
