How about a metal cage around the cat, insulate it from the exhaust itself and wire it up to a large capacitor that could be charged by the battery to deliver a shock to anyone touching it?

[Tow hook for 200 crv]

Hi Angie, are you able to tell if there are any manufacturer's identification marks or stickers on the towbar? Then Google them and see if they do tow hooks / look on eBay.

[Hi all]

Got my first Honda, a 2004 CRV EX 2.0 VTEC a few weeks ago, as a daily runaround for winter while I sort out my Alfa Romeo 147. 

 

Heard some good things about them, did a fair bit of research and found mine - test drove and bought it immediately. I'm really chuffed with the build quality and how well thought-out it is. I've replaced the old non-working satnav unit with a double DIN Android unit, and given it a service (spark plugs, air filter, oil filter, engine oil, gearbox and rear diff fluids, coolant change to type 2) and also replaced the Vtec solenoid valve gasket/filter as it was gunked up and giving error code P2159 every time I floored it. Also replaced the rear diff damper as it was worn and just rattling around in the bracket - didn't want it falling out and going through someone's windscreen!

 

Anyway, glad to be here, always been a big fan of forums!
