FULL INTERIOR RESTORATION & INSTALLATION // AHC EM1 Restoration Project (EP 18)

[@muasboy]

It’s crazy how u guys could find new oem parts. I just finished restoring a 95 db8. Some weather strippings have been discontinued. I had to resort to junk yards, and just had to use the nicest pieces i can find.

[@Adam_824]

This build is epic..it’s INSANE how many new parts you’ve managed to get or collect

[@ahcgarage]

Appreciate it

[@LTRiggs321]

oh dear here we go the masters at it again with an hour upload!

[@ahcgarage]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@Gen10civic]

Man those door panels! Worth more then the motor now a days being that clean

[@davidbeverly3463]

Legit factz!

[@ahcgarage]

Prices are silly these days. Glad we bought them years ago :-)

[@davidbeverly3463]

I'm mind blown you found a brand new driver door panel where they the worst for being broken on every 96-00 Civic! That thing is Platinum value! Screw gold!

[@ahcgarage]

@@davidbeverly3463 We are glad to get our hands on them from a few years ago

[@_white_rocket]

Incredible seeing all of those brand new parts coming out of Honda boxes and bags. So satisfying.

[@JoseSantiago-hv3xm]

Is literally a brand new car- every single last part is brand spanking new, every bolt, fastener and washer- NEW- snaps into place solidly for the first time. This Civic is literally being reborn!!! Incredible! 🤙🏼😊

[@ahcgarage]

Thank you!!

[@RICARD01]

*SATURDAYS ARE FOR THE BOYS!* *LFG!* 🪅🥳🥂🎊🎉🍻🍺👯‍♀️

[@ahcgarage]

Right on!!

[@Fastball115]

This is best rebuild I've ever seen.... I love all the new OEM connectors, clips, and mounting hardware!

[@ahcgarage]

We are trying our very best, glad you like it!!

[@jngtruong]

Giving AHC crew a like and comment even before finishing the video. Over an hour of video this week!!! Wont expect anything less than perfect.

[@ahcgarage]

You're the best!

[@gregpatterson1988]

Awesome job! Miss my 2000 GS-R, Indigo Violet Pearl. Keep on preserving these great Hondas and Acuras!

[@Patrick94GSR]

I’ve been collecting several trim pieces and parts for my GSR to do a similar project in the future, when I have a chance to respray it again. Won’t be to this level but I’ll do the best I can. Even got a set of those MITA quarter windows coming.

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks! Will do!

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

I am restoring my 2000 EM1. I worked on the Engine, changed calipers, breaks and rotors. I have a new Yonaka Full Catback Exhaust with 4 in 1 JDM Type R Header as well ready to be installed. Curently now its being fully repainted to its original black pearl color. Its a Civic Heist project with a Wings West Avenger Full Body Kit and original Veilside Kombat Dual Deck Spoiler and original rear taillights. The 17" Axis Neos are arriving next week . The exterior window and door seals are being fully replaced. From there I am going to work on the interior and as I can see the parts are difficult to find, this will be very challenging

[@ahcgarage]

Great deal, best wish to your project!!

[@apexpredator3129]

I can watch this all day Rebuild this entire car in one video and ill be happy

[@ahcgarage]

That will be coming soon. Stay tuned 😊

[@dp-calibrations2057]

Great work guys! It's a brand new car! Beautiful!

[@ahcgarage]

Thank you! 👍

[@louistorres3187]

That's so dope from start to finish love the channel it's the best when you have a buddy with you with a Acura & Honds Classics vibes😅 ❤from New Castle Delaware 💥KEEP GUNNIN🔫

[@louistorres1759]

A Momo Monte Carlo With red stitching would've been nice on that 💥KEEP GUNNIN 🔫

[@ahcgarage]

Appreciate that

[@gabrielvalentino7629]

Wow it’s like putting a puzzle 🧩 together just amazing guys 👌🏾👍🏾 great job and dedication of what yall love doing!!!

[@ahcgarage]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@jeffgoh3675]

Super clean! Amazed at how you still can get OEM parts. Can’t wait for the rest of the build to be done

[@ahcgarage]

More to come!

[@crich1431]

Can i just say, i love you guys especially with your explanation of the different parts and what they do to/for the car watching from the Islands of Antigua & Barbuda

[@0latency]

I’m surprised how many parts you managed to get! I tried doing this for my ek hatch in 2020, a lot of parts were just discontinued. Hope Honda makes some new parts to help people out

[@Patrick94GSR]

Not going to happen. These guys are a dealership and likely have insider hookups to stashes of NOS parts.

[@0latency]

@@Patrick94GSR so they’re the reason I couldn’t find any parts lmao they got them all

[@Jose-hi9id]

Interior is mint so much detail and oem parts 😢omg it’s beautiful 😍

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks for tuning in!!

[@haqitman]

Nice work! I wish you guys were closer, lol.

[@ahcgarage]

Maybe one day!

[@rodrigo4379]

Great video guys! Any itr video coming up ? 👀

[@ahcgarage]

In the coming months, stay tuned!!

[@brianchin9790]

My god, how did you find all these parts? This car will be better than new, hands down the best one out there.

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks bud. We started collecting parts a few before this project

[@pooopanda9677]

Great restoration video guys. The first time seeing the process of a sun roof being put back on a vehicle. Funny this video was uploaded a week ago then quickly gone. That CRX paint video must of been the one that should have been uploaded first haha. Great job guys, it takes time doing videos and restoring vehicles.

[@ahcgarage]

We can see you are an awesome supporter!!

[@kemobossinmotion]

What a great and satisfying video, I wish I could do this kind of rebuild to my EK1

[@ahcgarage]

Never too late to start

[@AdinSLaboy]

That's a beautiful em1 got a lot of goodies ❤

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks for tuning in!!

[@ramonbriones4487]

Amazing how this comes alone.Great job guys💪💪💪💪

[@ahcgarage]

Thank you, more to come!!

[@FrankieJ1981]

I luv the simplicity of the interior 👌

[@ahcgarage]

The beauty of the 90s and early 00s 👍

[@ht3360]

The owner of this car will be very Happy

[@ahcgarage]

Yes he is 😁

[@chinodollaz6158]

I need new window moldings for my em2. We need these links lol

[@HiFiInsider]

so nice... I wish OEM weather strips are still available for my 95 Civic coupe. are those OEM floor mats? If not, where did you get them from?

[@ahcgarage]

The floor mats have been discontinued

[@LTRiggs321]

Quick question how do you go about perfecting the trunk lines and whats the method to removing the center trunk spring plastic holder

[@charlesehman16]

Curious why you didn’t sand blast or co2 blast all the rust off that dash assembly. But maybe that’s my OCD.

[@Patrick94GSR]

No point. Those inner dash frames get flash rust the second they come off the assembly line. It’s just surface rust, not visible and won’t harm anything.

[@charlesehman16]

@@Patrick94GSR yeah you’re right.. but it really is a beautiful build.. can’t wait for the rest.

[@PaintSociety]

Because that rust is OEM style 😂

[@elplebeayala8011]

I love this 😊!! I just bought a si 2000 to watch this channel friends!! I would like to know what website you recommend or where I can buy all the parts like you to restore my civic!! And what color or paint number is the color they painted the car with, please help me, thank you.

[@saadchuck6379]

Beautiful work

[@ahcgarage]

Thank you!!

[@QuickStix26]

11 yrs ago, I included a brand new set of original floor mats when I sold my EM1. Can't imagine what that set would go for today.

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

I bought a set for $150 a few months back

[@maycor78]

Watching this build brings joy to my eyes..... such amazing work.... it's this car going to be for sale or it's a customer's????

[@ahcgarage]

It's Mike's car. Build to keep

[@barrymonroy7138]

You should of dynamite the back dash and the doors and put speaker foam in front and behind the speakers 😊 Thoes Pioneer 6×9 and you should of went with a nice set of Pioneer component 6 1/2 speakes on the doors Will perform well with A nice 4 Channel Pioneer amplifier. Thoes 6×9 will give out plenty of bass without a subwoofer . Because it looks like your keeping a factory look. Pioneer has nice small amplifiers that would go good underneath the seat or underneath the back dash...

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks for the tip

[@pipolebnene]

Imagine all the old cars we love we could get all parts still new

[@Ogflacoo]

Love the series of the transformation! I have a EM1 as well and trying to Find the OEM interior parts, are you guys able to tell me what website you guys use?

[@Slick_Mike]

Is this the dark grey or black interior. Mine is dark grey and it doesn’t look like this, so nice!

[@ahcgarage]

The Si trim has a different interior color code from the DX, HX and EX coupes

[@xavilopez4716]

Wow amazingly rebuilding. Would like to know about how much was the entire rebuild of this beautiful machine .

[@bestone2724]

New cars, Malaysia is watching

[@maurofertonani7005]

Amazing!

[@danielcoloncolon1226]

Where do you guys find all these original parts? I need some for my 1996 honda Civic

[@ahcgarage]

Some of the parts are still available at Honda. We planned a few years collecting parts before we started this project

[@Rulon12]

Hi guys, nice work!, where you find all this OEM PARTS?.

[@ahcgarage]

Honda dealership. We started the collection years ago

[@Rulon12]

@@ahcgarage it makes a lot of sense to me, hugs!

[@Fastball115]

What adhesive does honda use to attach the window glass to the plastic sash mounts on the regulator?

[@ahcgarage]

Are you referring to the tabs at the bottom of the glass?

[@Fastball115]

Yes, I ask because I've tried a bunch of stuff from epoxy to specific adhesives for glass to plastic and nothing lasts very long. The stuff from Honda lasted about 20 years before it failed!@@ahcgarage

[@RZA0280]

I’m so jealous! What did it cost for the build?

[@ahcgarage]

It's not cheap for sure. We might go over the total cost of this build later on

[@Fastball115]

Someone at Honda Japan must owe Mike a lot of money.... how else can he get these impossible OEM parts!?

[@ahcgarage]

Ha!! We started get these parts years ago.

[@DJcarsproyectos]

Excelente 👌

[@ahcgarage]

Thanks!!

[@pongosp]

where did you buy the inside of the door panel plastic seal? Link please thanks

[@ahcgarage]

They are the OEM moisture barrier from our donor car

How could I get OEM weather strips for my 95 integra

[@ahcgarage]

You can make that inquiry at your local Acura dealership

[@bikefreek]

shiny spots on the dash would drive me insane.

[@kouayang2194]

Is that door panel on the em an oem or not, and plus give us a link where you got it. Thnk

[@ahcgarage]

They are OEM but all discontinued from Honda now

[@liled7978]
