Default Prelude Dash into CRX...possible? questions

i love my crx but want the interior of the preludes of 1992-1996, is it possible?


is it possible to swap in a dash and door panels from a 92-96 prelude into a 1990 crx? its a project car, i have time to customize it and modify it to fit but i just want to make sure its a possibility. how hard will it be? i will have to splice the wiring and all. thanks in advance

Look at the size of the prelude, and then look at the size of the crx. There's your answer.

yah, I havent messured it, but my eyes tells me the Length of it is about the same of an EF, but the width is alot bigger. I think im going to cutt it in the middle, like a strip, and merge the 2 together using fiberglass. My buddy owns a body shop and he knows whats good for what, so hes going to help me out.
