civic del sol - help

sorry for this noob post, but I am just getting started. I am converting a 95 civic del sol.

Can anyone recommend a great step by step conversion manual? It doesn't have to be for my car specifically, I would just like to have a good roadmap to follow.

I have Bob Brant's book and Convert it. Both are good for general overview, but if I had something that was written in the last few years that could walk me through it - I would feel better about getting started.

thanks for your help!

there are some pretty good 'bloggish' build sites with varying amount of detail. I tried to make my site as pictorial as possible, but it might be too car-specific for what you want. Anyway, check it out....

You can check out my blog in my signature, its a Civic LX but close to a Del Sol in the basics.

There are a lot of good sites out there describing the process.

Here's a good one, pretty advanced conversion:

There's the infamous Gavin:

I have a site also that documents my conversion. I would classify my site as more of a "beginners" site. I'm no car expert and I'm no electrical expert.

I hope some of these can help.

Thank you all for your input. I'll definitely check out each of your sites. I hope to have my own someday. I'm sure you'll hear from me again in the forums when I get stuck along the way.

thanks again!
