honda service manuals...

hey just wanted u all to know to get factory honda service manuals the best place would be (if u didnt already know) ebay. I bought the Civic factory service manual on CD for 13.50 shipped, and the Prelude Service manual for 9 dollars shipped. I was looking at a dealership online and it was looking to be 72 dollars and 76 dollars respectively. It looks like I saved about 125 dollars just in books. I was a bit skeptical about getting a CD myself but just thinking about it, I think i will like it. I will just print out the sections I need when I need them and not have to worry about getting it dirty cuz I just could through it away. Or if I get really admant about having a book then I could get a binder and print all the pages off and hole punch them and put them in. I know its like 1,400 pages but paper really isnt that expensive and ink cartidges for mine are pretty cheap also and u still make away pretty good after everything is said and done.

Have you received them yet and it;s the manual as it should be or are you just informing everyone that you got thwm and they can save? I mean if the seller you got those from comes through w/ the good then share w/ all his Ebay name as it would be someone reputible to deal with.
just my $.02 and thanks for sharing...

Im glad I bought the book instead of anything else
I even shelled out of a bunch of 3ring binders to separate the sections...also to toughen it up when in the garage (and make it easier to tote pieces around)

you coulda downloaded them for free. I perfer the real thing, that way when i'm working on something and realize i need to refer to a section i wasnt counting on, i can, rather then running home and printing it out.

thats why u get a notebook and print them all out. It works out the same way.

im not here to advertise any one seller. I havent really used ebay all that much and didnt realize that i could get them there. When I found out that I could get them I was suprised. I just figured I would let un-informed people (like me) know there was a cheaper alternative to those expensive manuals. BTW its got everything; pictures, diagrams, everything the books do.
