I haven’t had a Teg door panel off in years so can’t remember what the bottom pocket screws look like... probably like the silver screw pictured above, just different part number.

I wasn't concerned about the silver ones behind the door. I got the pocket screws and wasn't sure if it was a replacement screw or the same as original. I guess spoon confirmed on another car , thought he asked you. My bad. Thanks for chiming in because I have the correct screws and have been skeptical about installing them. Mine have a washer but I suspected since I owned the car it wasn't the right screw.

So I bought this NOS mirror to violate and paint champ white. My base is jagged. So I can get this thing apart somewhat. I also am able to unscrew the actuator. I didn't get those pics. The fsm manual, simply says remove the actuator and reverse after removing the screws. Well there's rubber plugs on the back and when I pulled one it goes right into the white plastic. I see no connector. The other side is the white chassis harness, and would require de pinning. The manual doesn't call for that. Has anyone disassembled one of these? Any advice?

No info no problem. I got a cool pic someone may enjoy.

I have a few updates to post but I am unable to do so. I recently had a phone die. The Tapatalk app keeps telling me I need a user profile to post a picture. I can see I am logged in . Is anyone able to help me on this?

I finally got around to installing the new ac vent housing. While I was at it I tackled the burnt bulb on the climate control. I bought the bulbs and console months ago. When I went to install them last time I noticed the defrost bulb also burnt out. I changed all the bulbs when I did it . I recommend doing it all at once . In the next picture these are the bulbs. One of the switch bulbs were discontinued. There is a replacement which doesn’t have the little yellow condom. It was noticeable enough that I swapped the old condom to the new bulb . After a BLOODY install , the lights are so much brighter!

Celebrate!
Took her for a spin and fill up .

I purchased new gas straps and hardware . Haven’t installed yet.

I didn’t need these. I ordered them in October because the Acura part system showed zero in stock for the country. They arrived the next day . Something was wrong with the inventory apparently.

Here we go again my friends!

Can anyone explain what happened to my images on this thread for the glass ? Seems like this page and randomly deleted images on the next few pages?

Reviewing the image links, I see they are hosted by TapaTalk. It's possible TapaTalk is having issues. Also, there is a cost to TapaTalk hosting images, in which our tiny none profit (aka Jay's credit card) foots the bill. I will research but my suspicion is our Type R Club hit the max allowed storage again.

Either way, I would look into a reliable photo host. I made a thread here comparing options and ultimately, settled on FlickR after unsuccessfully testing Photo Bucket.
