Very nice!

Great job on the glove box carpet. What did you use?

What else did you do to your audio system besides the Alpine amp and did the amp do what you wanted?

I found a another local supplier that has an enormous variety of carpets, adhesives, fasteners, everything imaginable for automotive interiors. I kept looking at my Accords and wondered why did Honda cheap out again? It took me several attempts at cutting the material out into patterns that I could install with adhesive. Finally, I found if I cut the patterns out oversized, than I could install them without worrying about perfect alignment. I would cut excess material away with an x-acto knife before moving onto the next piece. Any cut marks in the plastic would be covered, so I wasn't worried.
As for the audio system, all I have done so far is the amp upgrade. It has made a tremendous difference, of course it still lacks bass. Its funny, all the current discussions and debates about the sound system, we were having over two years ago on the Edmund's site. Its interesting how many recommendations there have been and little has changed, especially in terms of Honda's response. I was waiting for the Honda subwoofer to appear, and now that it has I think I will pass. Since I was not able to get the Nav back in '99, I have decided to overhaul it all! I'm looking into the Clarion PSW-160 subwoofer, an Alpine Nav w/DVD (same as Honda OEM), than will add the monitors to the headrests and DVD entertainment system. That should keep me busy for the next year or so. I'm doing everything in stages, hoping for a breakthrough in pricing and products.
