1Gen vs 2Gen CRX seats & stuff
I am trying to 'fix up' my 87 CRX Si. I found some nice seat covers on eBay, but they're for a 2Gen SiR. Will they fit gen1 seats?
Also, what mods (other than hood) would I have to do to use gen2 headlights on my gen1?
Thanks in advance

The seat covers might fit. The light wont. Very few items are interchangable between the two generations.

uhhh... well, technically all you'd have to do is hack up your stock header panel. your hood has absolutely nothing to do with your head lights...
but honestly, i'd spend the money on something else..

I am looking at the Medival Pro 1-piece hood anyway, which does away with the header panel. There's someone ( at redpepper. I think) that makes an aluminum "under-hood" header panel that works with the 1-piece hood to keep the air going thru the radiator and not over it.
I would just like to know if there is any 'other' problems using gen2 headlights on a gen1?

Yes, they do not fit!!!!!!!! Even with the one piece hood. Now get over it.
Your 1st Gen CRX is VERY different from the 2nd gen CRX, nearly nothing is interchangeable.
http://www.heeltoeauto.com has a good selection of 1st Gen CRX stuff. I highly recommend their products.

OK man. I just like the black projectors. Thought they'd blend with the black car.....
Anyone know where I might get front & rear tower bars? I ran across a rear one, but can't remember where. I think they were Cusco's

The EDM headlights have a black inner area past the reflector.they look good on black cars. Or get some clear GTS headlight covers and mask off some holes and paint the rest of the cover with VHT nightshades. At least that way it's removable and not permanent. As for seats, you can use 1988 US CRX seats or 2nd gen JDM CR-X seats. I have 2nd gen CR-X seats in mine and they hold much better.
