Door speaker install is very easy.

One screw behind the door handle and in the hole thing in the armrest on the door panel.

been a while since some updates, currently getting a custom box built for my 2 new subs, should be ready monday

on another note, does anyone know the size bulbs for the parking lights? and do we have to ABSOLUTELY remove the bumper and headlight to change the bulbs for headlights and foglights? i know parking lights can be accessed from the side, any help is appreciated

Those speakers are pretty good, they should sound fine.

Parking lights are 194s, and you don't have to remove the bumper to change the bulbs.

Dude I'm sorry but that spoiler really does spoil (ruin) the look of the car plus I hate the 2.5 because of the grill not being part of the hood. I'm a hater should kept it pearl white but not the antique kind could of looked better.

you want the pin stripe 'after' a paint job to keep the stock look but you're getting wheels in the future? why would you want to get 2.5 stock wheels in the future if you already have them?

seems a lil contradictory

you said you want to keep the "stock look" and looks include rims. so yes, you actually did imply that you're keeping your wheels stock. so i based my response on that.

whats wrong with DUECEON9ER response? its his opinion.

DUECEON9ER- i agree with you... never did like the oem spoiler

^ Me, neither. I let a buddy borrow my car once and I watched as he drove out of the parking spot. I decided then that I would stay wingless.

False.

Not all 2.5s have spoilers.

I have seen many without it.

updates woot! so after dumping about 1600 in new paint and car audio I ran into some problems lol, while my mom was driving my car it overheated and the radiator hose blew. i jus got a new radiator and thermostat installed at a local honda dealership for 650, now im about to get a new cylinder head gasket and timing belt installed for around 1100, i know some would just give up on it, but i think our 1G's are worth it, has anyone else run into anything lately?

I paid after everything, about ~$400 for parts and labor for my timing belt so that seems like a fair price to me.

Where are you planning on having it done?
