Ontario's Alliston plant used to make the EH2's I beleive. Also I know some Canadian models didn't come with a passenger side side view mirror. I don't know why.

Same motor as USDM DX's. CDM doesn't mean **** except it was assembled in canada. No mechanical differences to my knowledge.

A lot of hatchbacks where made in Canada, Coupes where made in US, and 4-drs where from Japan until they started making 4-drs here in the US in 99.

Hmm, that's weird...
My car is a Canadian DX....92 as well and it has the stuff that you're missing, like the passenger mirror, rear wiper and side mouldings. Are you sure the previous owner didn't rip you?
But about the mouldings, are there holes where the mouldings should be? Cause if there aren't, that would seem a bit odd.
Also, look at your valve cover and see if it says 16 or 8 valves cause mine's the D15B7 16 valve which are in the DX's.
Hope that helps!

the other mirror, and the rear wiper were factory options, as well as a/c, and stereo. but the side molding thing is a bit confusing. all dx's had it, maybe your's is a cx, and you don't know it.

EDIT: nevermind, i read the last guys post, and re-read your's and noticed it said i do have the side molding's, your's is a dx. the person that bought it from honda, just didn't get the two other options you are talking about.

im sure everyone knows but if it was a hatch made in canada than you got the vtec wires from firewall to ecu, so you just have to plug in the harness or add the wires to your exsisting harness

Does ANYONE have a hatch that was assembled in America? Every one that I've ever seen has been from Canada.

My 95 coupe was made in Canada, and my friend's old 90 HB was made in Canada. To my knowledge, all the HB and coupes I've seen were made in Canada from 92-95. I believe the 96+ coupes were made in the US. 92-95 Sedans were made in the U.S.

yeah we had a person up top talking bout how hatches were canadian and coupes were american and sedans were japanese, to my knowledge hatches (like mine) are canadian yes. but i also know some were made in the us, and im starting to think there more rare all the time now, the coupes as faras i know are canadian, but im sure some were made in the us, my friend has a coupe that is canadian, this sedan thing i can't help with, is it a coincidence (spelling) that over seas we the 4 doors are called eg's and the sedans here are called eg's? nobody will ever know lol.
just so i don't get yelled at, eh is hatch ej is coupe and eg is sedan, but we call them all eg for short, this is almost as bad as what came on which valve cover, the h logo or vtec lol
