Hello Soar3rClub,

I followed several threads that have been posted here on the SC300/400 page. If you search "different auto shifter" there are several threads that have shown people use different style shifters.

For me I personally used a black wood shift **** for another Lexus model from ebay. I had to dremel a big enough hole in order for the shift **** to slip over the plastic piece that is attached to the car.

Besides that just need to buy the manual boot cover and that's about it. If you have any other questions or have trouble finding those threads just let me know

Did you ever stick back on the puddle lights? Which kit were you using beforehand?

Hello tknx,

Unfortunately I never put the puddle lights back on the car. It was collecting too much water during rainy days and would work some days and short out other times.

What I was using was not really a kit but some puddle lights I found on ebay and then mounted them to a thin sheet of metal right underneath the side skirts.

If I were to do it again I would go with puddle light kit that would be flush mounted to the actual side skirt itself instead of sticking out from underneath them. There are many modern day cars who now have puddle lights come standard on their cars, so I might look into there systems and incorporate that onto my SC again at some point.

Where can I get that exact antenna and does everything line up, and is it plug and play?

Hey there 1kingslimg,

Unfortunately the S2K antenna is not plug and play in the sense that it actually gets reception for the radio. Since I had a carputer in the car there was no radio anymore so the S2K antenna for me was just purely for looks and nothing more.

I have a picture somewhere in this thread on how I bolted the antenna to the car but basically you stick the antenna on the inside of the car's rear quarter panel and put back the grommet on the outside of the car the black plastic piece that is currently where the antenna is now). From there I zip tied the bottom of the S2K antenna to the inside quarter panel where the old radio receiver is located and that's about it.

You can get the antenna at any Honda dealership as long as they have it in stock. Hope that helps and happy modding
