i know it'll fit 92-95 hatches with some minor modification...$45 is well worth it, damn bar is worth $100 at any acura dealer. funny, i'ved been looking for the same bar...let me know how it goes.

there was a thread about this topic about 2-3 months ago. And to cut to the point, the type r trunk brace wont do anything on any other car, because the type r has a much stiffer chassis all around and in the trunk area where the brace mounts too. So if you put the brace on your car you wont feel anything different. All it will do is give you a piece of mind.

the point of my last post was to inform you that it wont help you, unless you are doing it for cosmetic reasons. But to answer your question i dont know what you would have to do to make the bar fir your 95 cx

Think what u wanna think... But a friend of mine let me drive his 95 Civic Si without that brace and after he installed it... It made a difference... IMO strut bars do make a difference and for who ever thinks it doesnt make a difference...

Im not sure how he installed it but he told me u just drill a hole and bolts and nuts to make it stay in place...

I don't think he means the Strut bar would not make a differance.
I think he means the ITR rear chassis brace would not make a differance.

I got one off ebay for my 92 CX HB but never put it in because I did not want to drill holes.
You have to drill holes and use some high grade nuts and bolts
