This post has been great to follow! And the basic car you are working with looked great to begin with as well. But as a US-living guy, a couple things about your car surprise me, the fact that it has black mirrors (not body-colored,) and manual windows. I thought CDN RS spec cars came with upgrades to both these items? (Power Windows and Colored Mirrors.) And only CE/LE cars might have not?
But your door panels look like they are original RS ones, the place where window switches go is correctly dark colored... I even wondered if a previous owner had "combined" an crunched RS interior with a LE pkg 3 door in good shape? I have an old online CDN 08 HB brochure that shows the original equipment for these cars, and thought that the 07 range was the same. Or am I totally wrong? Many years ago I bought some Canadian parts from a BC dealership and looked closely at a couple LE models (no RS on site,) and always thought that in Canada, I would quickly replace the mirror covers of an LE with US-sourced colored covers...
In any case, thanks for a fantastic post about rebuilding your car! And I hope you don't mind my intrusion. Again, Great Work so far!
