these aren't factory hondas, so it's not going to be easy to explain anything truly. unless you can find the actual coach works builder of the conversions, you aren't going to get anywhere.

Well it's not going to be a "Tropic" conversion since that cars US Spec. rather than German like Tropic (grille, side-markers, tail-lamps, license-plate lamps, bumpers, wheels, engine & dash all differ).

Not sure but photos of earlier Solaire conversions (that's an '82 model?) suggested less (or none) of the back seat remained to make room for the roof & the windscreen header looked a little better finished on their cars.

So possibly other coach builders....
Anyone who has one should know best...
