Re: 97 civic hood fit in trunk?
any chance anyone could measure the width of their hood, and their trunk opening for me? i just want to know if it'll slide in w/ the seats down.
saw a post somewhere that the 8th gen civic hoods do fit thru the trunk w/ seats down.
much appreciated !!!

I know a door will fit....its a pain in the ***** to get out though.
I think a hood would fit in the backseat....lay it from the floor up towards the back window.
I know a kid with a cobalt SS that has lost his hood on the highway...and he put his in the rear seat...drove home with it.

Eighth gens have really short hoods compared with sixth gens.

I just picked up a EG like a month ago....in the backseat / trunk...had 2 full doors, front bumper, 2 fenders, and 2 full size tires on rims.
Could I see out the window? No
Did I only have to make 1 trip? Yep :D
Took me longer to shoe-horn the junk in the car, then making 2 trips wouldve....but you know, lol.
Getting out took double that time, lol.

I was definitely talking about a 6th gen before.

Re: 97 civic hood fit in trunk?
I think we figured out there were some items that actually fit in the '98 coupe better than the '97 hatch we had here. It has to do with the height of the panels on the shock towers in the rear. Those shock towers really make the interior much narrower than it would be.
