i most of been blessed from the heaven's above. yesterday i gone to my local junk yard and guess what i've found? an sei seating there without no one taking some off yet. i didnt know what i found until i got in and show the cup holders. i was like ooooh my GOD. thank you lord. i got my tool and got to work. after that i look in the trunk and find that it still had speakers hooked up in the back. to my brown eyes i show two new jbl 6 by 9's. i grabed my tool took that off.as soon as i fineshed they had bought a honda civic 92. i looked inside that one and found system wires monster cable's gold tips. i grab that too. it others stuff but i didnt need that so i rolled out cause it was time to bounce. up in the parking lot i looked around and show a muffler sitting on the ground. so i drove up to it and so it was a nice muffler than readed it was a flowmaster muffer with a crome tip. so i grap that. to make my story short i went to day an pick up some very needed tires four for only $48. the other stuff i got for less than $20. man i am blessed.

Did you get the volume control switch on the steering wheel? Usually you can get small stuff like that for free and make a killing on ebay.

Usually you can sell just that switch for about $20-$30 just for the switch man. And you can usually get it for free. I haven't been lucky enough to find a Sei in the junk yard yet.

I dont think you can use it with an aftermarket cd player. To my knowledge you can't but who knows. I think you just need a philips screwdriver and then unclip the wires. Does it have foglights or foglight switch? If so get those b/c you can get some good money for them too.

The rear disc brakes and all of the lines and stuff that applys with the rear brakes. The Sei console with armrest. The leather seats, dash, door panels, and pretty much everything. If it has the stock bose stereo grab that and the amp that it had. The SEi wheels. Emblems and I think that's pretty much it other than the front and rear sway bars underneath.

Yes you can... if you grab the controls, you can get an adapter called the SWI-X, i'm not sure who makes it, but it makes it so the controls will work with any aftermarket deck that has a remote.

The SEi front "grill" piece and the headlight trim are a different color (kind of a bronze tint) than a regular Accord. Someone on here was looking for those pieces if I remember correctly. I didn't know those steering wheel controls were worth anything... my parts car has those still intact and they actually work.

I know which one that thing is. Mint green right? If it is, I saw them driving it around the yard the day before it got put up for scavening. I'm going to check that motor out for my 'lude when I help Vinny.

I was the one looking for the center grille piece and headlight trim, since mine are cracked on my SEi. I would like the Amp too if it is still in the trunk. It is bolted to the bottom of the rear deck. If it is a coupe I also need the power window switch for the driver's side.

depends. Comes with a 1 year warranty and they do a complete tear down. So far I've bought 2 from them and have had NO problems at all. The extra cost is worth it to me. Thats all they do is manual transmissions. I got a little tired of pulling used trannies in and out of the car trying to save money
