Worked on the fleet today with my sons. They brought their Insights over and we did some maintenance & washed them.

Of course we had to get some pics of them together!

Black Widow is in the background in the middle pic, my son still has it and drives it occasionally

Looks photoshopped to me.


Thanks for the shots.

My four pack of silver metallic Sharpies A.K.A. touch-up paint should be in today, or tomorrow, so Terminator's bumper should be all silver again. Silver metallic Sharpies actually match almost 100% with the original Silverstone.

Don't have enough posts to post an image, so.. oh, what's this? Looks like part of a URL. oi62.tinypic.com/wk1ris.jpg

The marker was running out, and it's been on there a few days, so it actually looks better than this, but the color matches really well, and shines in the sun. Some Sharpie and a little clear coat and I'll back in business.

Here was the result:


Still, compared to black plastic, it looks pretty good.

Installed a brake regen switch. It was a pain, same as the clutch interrupt switch, but I finally got it working. The original switch that I ( badly ) wanted to use didn't end up fitting, so I had to use the hardware to mount this micro switch, so it looks like crap.



Eventually I want to get one of the Daox shifters and wire it all up through that. Anyone know where I can get some spare switch blanks for this car when I get rid of the switches?

I scoured G1parts and was unable to find those.

INSTRUMENT PANEL GARNISH for 2000 Honda INSIGHT

Maybe you'll find it where I didn't.

Sweet. It's actually on this one: INSTRUMENT PANEL for 2000 Honda INSIGHT

35175-S4N-003ZB LID, SWITCH *NH293L* (SEAGULL GRAY) $4.12

But $4.12 is a little much for such a small piece. Can't really find it anywhere else for cheaper, though.
