Hello everyone! My name is David and I ama full time firefighter and a part time mechanic ata Ford/Chrysler dealership. I own a 1994 Honda Accord with 198000 or so miles on it, but it is in pretty good shape. I have put some euro tail lights, front euro corner lights, and euro bumper/turn signal lights on it. I'm fixing to have all the windows tinted and do a full tune up on it. It's my daily driver since my wife has the new minivan. I used to be a Honda tech at the local Honda dealership so I do have my Honda knowledge, but I'm always looking for more. I hope I can find all the answers that I need and parts that I may be looking for on this forum. Thanks for having me.
