Don, I may have to borrow your panel clip remover to take off my console and door trim pieces for refinishing. 
I am attending Phoenix Comicon on Saturday, and am available Sunday until mid-afternoon (have a friend's bday dinner to go to), and all day Monday. Hopefully I can help you with some of your projects. :smile:

We had a great time too! Cant wait for our next DIY!....
Don, I can't think you enough for your help with my NSXs over the past few weekends. I am so happy to have my refinished trim panels installed, and my car put back together with the iPod adapter installed. I loved my NSXs before, but I really love them now! I am extremely fortunate and grateful to have you for a friend. Happy Father's Day and enjoy the day off! :smile:

You are so welcome. I had a blast helping you. And Thank you too! Now it just maintenance...How about the trans fluid next? :smile: Or maybe a good wash/wax or ?
I need to get my usa spec adapter working again:frown: Wonder if it was because I updated to IOS 5.1.1?

Oh shoot, I didn't think to try my iPhone with 5.0.1, sorry.
The transmission fluid can wait until after we do your brakes.
I love learning to work on the NSX! Also, I found the solution for my iPod cable problem (with it not fitting into my iPhone bumper opening): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Male-to-Fem...dapter-for-iPod-iPhone-4S-iPad2-/251054694164Project time continues!

I'd be happy to help out with any of this stuff. For some of it, all I may be able to offer is an extra pair of hands/eyes and some conversation, but most of it looks pretty simple.
Give me a call, we'll set up a time.

Thanks for the generous offer, Mark. It was nice meeting you last week. Don's house is centrally located between us, so hopefully we can all hang out and learn to work on NSXs soon.
Hey, it will be my pleasure. By the way, let me know if you need any technical diagrams or service/repair instructions. I can print them out at school for pretty much any car.
There is a small chance that some things may not be available, but so far, everything I've look up for NSX is there.
