wind plate? i have a 93 dx that was once auto and i did a conversion. i don't remember a wind plate. and i don't remeber anything in the way either.
i know the manuals have a wind plate. but not the autos.

ahh...well that would make more sense, something the OP neglected to mention.
yeah, mine is a 93 hatch.

yea, you should have mentioned that you had a 00 civic. this whole time i was thinking 92-95 civic. which that hump is not there. damn, that sucks though.
good luck!

Re: (Dyce)
I got mines off with a pry bar that has a blunt end so you can take a hammer to it. Was not doing so well at first but I gave it a good sharpening and It was much easier. Came off shortly after.

Its still there even on 92-95. It guides the auto cables to there correct location.
Theres 2 spot welds that are behind the "bracket" that attaches to the bottom front of it. Have to take it off then you could get the other 2 welds then hammer and your set.
