What write-ups would you like to see?

[Si Speed]

In order to keep everybody happy and coming back, we constantly need new stuff coming. One thing I think we all depend on at one point or another is, DIY write-ups. So in order to make the site better for everyone here, list and write-ups you'd like to see here and I'll paste it in this post so anyone who looks through this thread, may see it and either have a write-up for you that's not posted or so they can do a new one. Someone may or may not do a write-up for you but as commmon courteosy goes, if you contribute, someone you helped will be willing to help you. In your request you need to include the following:

-What the DIY job is
-What year Lude it is for

Remember, these will be "our" PreludeZone writeups.
If anyone copies and pastes tutorials from other sites, please make sure you get permission FIRST from the originator, then post the link to the original thread.

Help us help you!

-E

P.S.- The requests will stay on this list until a write-up is made. I will delete them off the list ONLY when there is a write-up available on the site.

We don't need a 4th gen to 5th gen sunroof conversion write up. theres' lots out there.

I will be doing a 94-96 console conversion write up for those with a 92-93 console, with lots of pictures. I did this conversion months ago. However, I never had time to post the write up.

[Drew]

i just did a 5th gen fuel filter. unless i missed it, i didnt see a write up on that yet.

[Preludeshalyn]

like to see how a rear motor mount is done on a 5th gen

[Qnz92Lude]

LED conversions that are done to 5th gens, but for the 4th gen lude. which bulbs fit perfectly since there are various ones. i dont know how similar the ligth are from 5th gen to 4th gen to know if there leds fit ours. not for nothing ricey simple things like side markers, dome light, courtesy lights, trunk light, license plate etc.....

i know sylvania has the bulb sizes to that you can compare it on ledautomotive.com but if you want variety you need to go to superbrightled.com and i just dont understand everything.

I've seen this done so many time on 5th gen's and planned on doing it for my 4th gen. problem is that there are so many different led bulbs hard to know what fits, what doesnt, and havent seen it done on a 4th gen except from one guy in cali and not sure how he does it since he did alot of custom light to his car such as tail light LEd and retro fits.

How about a Type S intake install? As I'm about to do that, I might be the candidate.

[Si Speed]

I should've done one when I did mine but it was raining and I was in a hurry. I'll go ahead and add it until you get it up then take it off the list.

It won't be any different than installing a stock intake, it's just bigger. :biggrin:
