I have kind of a strange question here. On my '02 SE, the leather steering wheel look great everywhere EXCEPT the top part of it. The top piece looks like it's worn out, doesn't have a smooth finish to it like the rest of the wheel, and it's obviously not as shiny/glossy as the rest of the wheel is. I used some hand cream just to see what would happen, and it makes it look great again, almost brand new like, but that doesn't last more than a few hours since the cream gets into the leather, and onto my hands.
Is there something I can use that would stay on there longer? I was thinking something like black shoe polish of some sort... :S I know I could get it looking perfect with that, but I don't know if it would stick to my hands every time I grabbed the wheel. Any input on this would be great, and if not, then I'll maybe start a new thread, and hope someone notices it.
Thanks guys!

I have a quick stupid question. What color are the stock 2k2 SE calipers?? I never really noticed the color until today. I got new rims installed and the calipers are black and look freshly painted.
**update**
Yeah the guys at les schwab painted them black for me. I have no idea why, guess I'll have to give them a call and thank them as I was going to paint them black anyway.

I have been looking at racing seats lately, and was wondering if there are any seats that match/closely resemble the stock gray interior. All I have looked at is Corbeau and they really don't have what I'm looking for. I want something with good bolstering, sort of like an Evo style seat. I like Recaro's but i'm not up for spending 2k on seats alone. If someone has done this swap, I'd like to know which brand it was and how much $$$ they had to shell out for seats and brackets combined.

I recently went to autozone to check out why my SES light was one. The scanner print out said that bank 1 was running both rich and lean. ( i recently changed my mass airflow meter, spark plugs, oil, tranny fluid flush, belts, and a faulty coil pack). I was wondering if I needed to change my O2 sensors in band one? If so,, exactly which ones go to bank one?

hmm im not sure. the fans i know are fine because my friend and i had to blast the heat on level 4 to get some heat out of the engine bay. the ac was also fine when we were on the highway. it only became a problem when we hit the suburban and city driving.

i just installed reverse gauges on my 00 SE and when i tried them out, the needles on the speedometer and tachometer went up, but did not return to 0. can anyone help?

I meant the actual cooling fans, not the fans that blow air into the cabin, but the fans located near the radiator under the hood.

Start with the easy things....
1. make sure both fans work.
2. flush coolant system and replace coolant/water
3. replace thermostat (may want to do this when flushing system, part not expensive)
4. replace radiator
