Default Difference between Std./DX/Si HB

Just curious... plan on pulling exterior parts off of a DX and an Si to go onto my Std. HB... but what is the difference really? And which ones came with the parking lights on the fenders?

pretty sure DX was 88-91 (not 100%), and pretty sure the marker lights on the fenders where jdm only. i can't say 100% sure on the marker lights, because i can't account for Canadian models.



**** didn't feel like re reading the brochure, but here.

There often seems to be confusion betwee models

I can tell you that the civic ef gen in Canada had 4 models......

base- 4speed model, no door moldings, plastic seats, no console around shifter
CX- add a 5speed tranny, door moldings and center console, 13" wheel
DX- add cloth seats, rear wiper, tilt steering, rear area cover, red center tail light, cloth door inserts
Si- add better engine/tranny, upgraded interior, better brakes, rear sway bar, better struts, better exhust- dual out, tach in cluster, power sunroof, 14' wheels with hubcaps, 3 spoke steering wheel, dual mirrors

The side marker topic is pretty simple.......EF's in Europe and Japan came with a "single" 194 wedge bulb in the corner lens, and the other was a single bulb in the side marker fitted in the fender.

USDM cars used two 194 bulbs in their corner lens's....one to light up amber, the other clear

You could do one of two things......

-cut holes in your existing fenders
- buy used jdm fenders

personally, i think it's a waste of time/money
