hey i remember reading that the 88 CRX antenna block off plate was still availabe from the dealer ive been searching but cant find the part number does anyone happen to know it by chance?

 

Just bought one on ebay for my EF, fits perfectly, gasket and blockoff plate for somethin like $18? I know he's got another listed, don't know if the EF blockoff would fit a rex.

 

dude what ebay person did you get it from?

 

$9 from the dealer.
or $6 with employee discount.

yes, the CRX and civic use the same block off plate.

 

i ordered it from hondaautomotiveparts.com and it ended up being like 16 bucks. remember to get both pieces. they really rape you on stup crap. the actual parts were cheap

 

Antenna Plate: 39152-594-004 CAP, ROOF SEAL $2.58
Antenna grommet: 39153-SB6-000 WASHER, SEAL CAP $2.38

You will need both. That's from hondapartsdeals.com, and they'll rape you on shipping unless you buy alot of other stuff to justify it. You can exect to pay about $10-$15 from the dealership for those.

Why yes, Yes it is.
And it improves my quarter mile by a 1/2 second.
So you know its worth it

 

By using the block off plate doesn't that hurt your radio signal?

Seeing how you have to take the stock antenna out, yeah, unless you have another that'd fit. Otheriwse it wouldn't matter. I've had 2 CRX's with block off plates and aftermarket antennas.

yeah, with that $9 for shipping ground

 

Not trying to jack the thread but what antennas is everyone going with after taking out the stock one? Or is this a satellite radio or an ipod thing? My stock antenna is sucking big time and I was looking for an aftermarket one rather than possibly getting raped from the dealer.

me too. I've looked around a found alot of good options... but are there certain brands you guys have had good experience with?

 

iPod here (actually a San-disk with radio), I'll be making a small box with a single speaker and amp that I can plug into my cig lighter for longer trips. My car is an autox car with occasional daily duties, so the stereo and speakers are all removed.

I'm about to remove my antenna too and do the block of plate. I never listen to the radio because I don't enjoy some ******* yelling in my ear trying to sell me some ****.
