You'll have to make a custom housing to make it fit. A little wiring and it might work.

mounts and housing is what you should worry about. wiring takes time but can be done.

Screw the motor, swap cars (make sure she gets the manual trans), just like Spoon and RealTime Racing.

Actually, I was wondering why your mom would let her rip her navi out of her new car and put it into yours?

I gotta go with him on this one... more power and only ~300lbs heavier... there is a reason race teams are dropping the RSX in favor for the TSX.

WRONG, they're going with the CL7 because it handles better. It has double wishbone suspension for both front and rear opposed to the MacPherson Strut found in the front of the DC5 and Ep3.

haha, so true. My dad built a passenger seat rack for his laptop in his SUV, and he just uses his Thomas Bros. program to navigate where he goes. No GPS or anything, but it works great. We go all over Southern California with it. I'll take pics if anyone wants to see.
