Pull-A-Part Score!!!
Spent a couple of hours at a local Pull-A-Part today and got a few things for the 2000 RX. They had a 2000 model and a 2002 model. I got the windshield and roof trim that had suddenly disappeared from mine. I also got a driver's side headlight assembly, driver's side window control panel, the front splash guard, a door panel light clear lens cover, a passenger side front door speaker, and an O2 sensor!!! I also got a blower fan for a 2012 Honda Civic.
The 2002 model had badges on it that said VSC. It had a black interior and a really nice wood and black leather steering wheel and shift ****. I could tell that it must've been really nice when it was new. It also had some nice tail lights that were different looking that I am thinking about getting and putting on the 2000RX. I am also thinking about getting the steering wheel and shift **** and putting them in my 2000 model. My 2000 has a brown leather steering wheel with the brown column trim. I am wondering if the black wheel would just look weird with the brown column, or I could also change out the column trim to black but the rest of the dash is brown. What do y'all think? Do you think anyone would even notice? Here are the pics from my score.

I think a black wheel and shift **** would look good, could accent them off with black floor mats.

I kind of thought it would look sporty. The wheel is wood and black leather and the shifter is also wood with black leather from a 2002 VSC model, and they look so nice. I saw a wheel just like it online for around 150 bucks!!!

The headlights look pretty nice and fresh for their age.
I agree with Lex above as I have the Black floor mats with Silver interior and it looks great.

Yeah, it had a few small slits in the surround and I have already repaired it. There were only two 1st gen RXs in the yard and I pulled all four front door panels and this speaker was the best of the four. I also pulled a rear door panel to see if it had the same speaker and found it was a smaller different sized speaker. I used a clear rubber cement for the repair and if it doesn't hold up then I will get a new one, it was only 6 bucks so I'm not sweating it.

I wanted to get the passenger side headlight also but it had two broken mounts so I left it.
The interior in my 2000 model is "ivory" which looks more like a light tan to me. The dash is brown and it has light tan carpeting. It has a brown leather steering wheel and brown leather shifter. I like the idea of the black contrasting wheel and shifter and some black floor mats.

Update!!!
I spent the day installing everything. My RX300 had never had a front splash guard since I have had it, now it does and looks complete. I had a fairly productive day for sure.
