Honda Tuning Mag just put on a seibon carbon rear hatch and hood for a DA, in the next issue they may show the difference between the FAL lexan with carbon hatch and stock hatch.

Those EDs... I dunno :/

too much coin for that hatch, especially for a 90/91

There is a sedan on fb with 14k on it selling for 7900.

Red and auto. Looks factory fresh.

People are saying buy it and swap it.

Well if the whole car is mint then it's gotta be in good shape. Just might be caked with rust proof depending on where its from

did an assessment of the hatch - the ball joint on my rearview mirror went out - so now I have a floppy mirror - lol. anyone have an extra?

Also, anyone know where to get outer window scrapers?

I picked up a wink mirror for now, I figure I can use it on the track after i fix my regular mirror.

How is the quality on it? I know they are made by VIS but is the fitment good or does it require some modification?

Got it, have you thought about cleaning them and painting or do you just not have them at all?

I actually have thought about that - if I couldnt find replacements, I was going to clean them and hit them with a coat of plastidip.

PCI sells seat brackets for EF's however they are not cheap and have a wait time. Worth checking out though.

My friend ordered PCI brackets for his 89 hatch.

Did the wait game.

Got sent 90/91 style.

He sent them documented pictures of how they do not fit.

They did not realize different seat patterns.

He said then he had to wait again for new brackets.
