I've never seen such a wonderous thing!

Is that a universal/trim to suit type thing, or is it 2nd gen lude specific?
Is that train handle not going to be annoying when you go around corners though?

Yea it's universal! It adjusts to different length windows.
And I drive my car in the front seats lol Not worried about it tapping my passengers occasionally!

No problem! Maybe after you see some pics from afar you'll see it tie in more.
Yea I love it, perfect JDM addition!
Update:
Well shortly after I attended the Type2Detectives/StanceWorks coffee morning meet in Cambridge my gearbox decided to lock the diff completely and I was in a bit of a pickle.
After sourcing a 2nd hand box from the Prelude Power forum I had it sent off and new bearings fitted and the insides checked over. The new 60K miles box was better than my 54K miles box so it came back and with the help of some mates we refitted it back in.
The state of the Diff :S There was metal fyling about everywhere in there! Chunks wedged into the casing and all sorts!
And the Output Shaft was chipped too.
So ordered up lots of stuff that needed doing like 2x upper and 2x lower ball joints, while it was easily accessible I bought a new clutch just to be on the safe side.
Also while the front crossmember was off I had a 6mm plate welded to the bottom of it, This part takes nearly all of the hits when I hit bumps in the road and Speedbumps Ect so should take a beating now as well as lots of sparks lol
Refitting the box.
So damn good to see her back on the floor, I'd forgotten how low it was

Soon to be lower once the smaller tyres have been fitted to the freshly polished SSR's
Just waiting for my rocker cover to be hydro dipped so I can start the car and test the transmission. Hope all is well as Japfest is under a week away now! :O
