Gerrit from the Netherlands 2.0ex sedan 09/86

[Crazy Gery]

Hello, my name is Gerrit and i'am Dutch and i'am sorry for my English. Since a few weeks i drive a Honda Accord 2.0ex automatic with cat. and carburator engine A20A1. She drives very well and the seats are great, a little rust problems and a dirty tank so there are a few carburator problems. The Honda has power steering and electrical mirrors but no cruise control, that's a pitty. In the Netherlands it's very difficult and expensive to buy new parts for the Accord, in America is a lot more to buy but HondaPartsDeals and other shops do not deliver to the Netherlands so i hope tho buy some stuff on the web.
Pictures offcourse will follow after 5 items.

Welcome from a fellow Dutchman..
I guess I've seen you on the Dutch HVN forum, right?

Anyway, get 5 posts and show us your car!

[Crazy Gery]

Yes, you did, it's me.
Now i'am here because this Honda is much more populair in the States.

Yeah, there are only a few (left) in our country.. Too bad!
Every single aftermarket part you want, you gotta import from the US.
That'll cost you a lot, but hey, we own the greatest cars on earth!

Having a lot to do isn't necessarily a bad thing, at least it keeps you off the streets ..
You mean a place where they sell parts for our cars?
Don't know where you live but over here in the South (Limburg and Brabant) we have Heuts for the smaller parts (brake pads/rotors, suspension/steering parts, belts etc.).
For bigger parts you gotta search on Ebay (US). Also check out:

Euro-Autoparts
Japoto
Autopartsonline (for (sport) brake pads and rotors, calipers, wheel bearings and suspension/steering parts
Autoonderhoud (for exhausts, batteries, sparkplugs and cables and all kinds of filters)
Schokdempersonline (for dampers)

After I've looked up all these websites, and read your last post again, I think you meant performance parts for our cars!
But I'm gonna post the above links, they're still handy..

If you're looking for performance parts, keep an eye out on Ebay and the For Sale section on this board.
For the rest: almost all websites are willing to ship overseas, but mostly you need to send them an e-mail first because they haven't implemented that option in their webstores.
Just depends on what kind of performance parts you're looking for.

Also (as you might see I've got nothing to do at work ATM), I've got the next 3geez threads in my browser's favorites:

A20 rebuild/performance
Very handy overview!!
Another performance thread
Legend_master's suspension thread

Enough to read IMO!

Hoi Bryan, tanx!!

No performance parts, i only want original parts.
So i'am looking for a new doorseal in the left front.
And what i really want is an original cruise control and seat heating.

For the doorseal, not sure if they're still being made.
Have you tried some parts shops already? Or the Honda dealer?

And for these factory options you'll have to keep an eye out on the for sale thread here and maybe Ebay. Were cruise control and seat heating options in Europe as well? Have never seen one here...

Hello

[bryan6732]

And what i really want is an original cruise control and seat heating.

For the cruise control you could ask board member Prionance glauca.
In this thread he said he pulled it off his car...
Maybe he's willing to sell it to you!?

EDIT: and here's the For Sale thread!

Hee Gerrit,
Welcome!
It's time to post some pics now...

[bryan6732]

It's time to post some pics now...

Definitely about time to post pics!

[Crazy Gery]

Haha I know, but how???

I also looking for an original cruise control for an A20A1 engine??

Here's the "how to post pics" thread. Have fun!
You can also use any other pics hosting site (like the Dutch www.mijnalbum.nl which I use).

As far as the original cruise control goes, I think it'll be the same for all A20 engines but maybe someone else can confirm that?

[bryan6732]

Looks good from the inside and outside as well!
Haven't seen a clean engine bay like that for a long time!

[Crazy Gery]

The inside looks as new.
Outhside a few little rustproblems, under the car it's very hard.
