Bugger, not all that again, it was so cramped under there :( Plus why is everything in Preludes sticky? Every piece of interior trim I've removed seems to be secured by cum :?

One cool thing I spotted whilst I was down there though:

Anyone still got a flare in theirs? :lol:

Didn't someone find an unopened jap condom under a seat in one of the ludes? You may find a used empty one by the sounds of it :lol:

Haha it's a good job the flare wasn't there on mine today otherwise I probably would've ended up becoming very unpopular with the neighbours very quickly :lol:

yeah I might just pull the seat, it's only 4 bolts. Although in the Accord there was lots of hair and a manky earing when I took the seats out :? Confirmation of the 1 lady owner I guess :lol:

yet the back seat is remarkably spotless :roll:

Must've been one of the prefacelift with a sex blocker if it was unopened :lol:

I don't think there'll be any condoms in mine, it's like they pulled out and spun 360 degrees :lol:

I think we should all now go out and place one random thing under the back seats of our cars, as a kind of time capsule 8-)

mine had the flare holder which i still have, but the mrs wanted it taken out as she kept catching her leg on it :lol:

the taped up box may be the mph converter, mine is behind my right side tweeter cover next to the clocks.
if it has 4 wires coming from it and has been spliced in to the loom then that would work there.

mine is a light grey in colour ;)

I'm just amazed my girlfriend hasn't put her feet through any of the wiring looms up where the carpet meets the bulkhead, it's the kind of thing she'd do :?

I thought it might be the converter briefly, but I reckon the small square chip with electrical tape on the lower right is the converter, it looks like some of the ones I've seen online.

Any thoughts on why I still have 1st gear VTEC and no speed limiter though? The ECU doesn't look like it is chipped, however I thought that was the only way you could achieve both those things together? Here's the inside of the ECU

I'd fit my socketed ECU, but it has anunkindn map on it :? And if that box is some sort of piggy back unit then combining the two would probably be asking for trouble :scaredtoss:
