Just call me Major Malfunction
Alright, so, I thought I would paint my interior. Sounds easy, but its not. When I took out the dash I disconnected the plug the feeds info to my speedometer and gas gauge. So now I got none of that, although this will be an easy fix.
My big problem is the signal/light arm. When I rammed,forced, and struggled to get my dash back into place I realized that I should have removed the bracket that holds up my steering column. I broke off my signal arm. So now to turn on my lights I have to shove a screwdriver into the broken chunks of plastic and turn. not soo bad. To signal is a bitch, I gotta blindly aim my screwdriver in there and push up or down.... not too fun.
If anyone with some electrical know-how, knows how to rig up a few switches to turn on my lights and blinkers, please enlighten me. Otherwise, Im off to the wreckers to find a new steering column box thing.

Well, I figured maybe someone else made this mistake and/or knows what wires to clip. Im sure I can rig up some switches to fix this delema.
Plus, no one knows me, and I dont know anyone so the shame kinda disipates.

yup, I am a dumbass, but thats how you learn I guess.
I painted the interior cream and white to match my future pearl-cream w/ sparkles paintjob.
Anyways, I guess im off to honda to order a new signal arm. I didnt know you could buy replacement.
thanks for you help and comments (incompassionate, but funny as they were)
