eBay if you must, but I think oem with smoked vinyl looks better. They fit better, too.

So I was at the junkyard today and was pulling parts from an 88 crx si and the rear driver side window has a import car of the year sticker. I really really want this sticker! Does anyone have an 88 si and have a decent piture of this sticker so I can remake it? Or I will have to try to get my good camera into the yard to get a good picture of it.

Interesting. What are their advantages? I've never really heard of anyone complaining about stock/oe knuckles. Do they utilize heim joints all around? Geometry change? Lightweight?

wiring for the lights/ignition lockout/etc.

Gotta pull the tranny and pull the pedals. You might be able to get the pedals out without pulling the dash, had to pull mine because I did a full hydraulic conversion. Look at my build thread for any further info.
