CRX Headlight Differences
Okay, I searched the FAQ's as well as used the search function on here and can not find the answer.... Are the OEM headilghts between 88-89 and 90-91 different or the same? Please let me know, thanks

i also believe they are all the same... but i cant remember if the corner light mount is something to do wid the fender or the headlight mount bracket... i got to check my 89 and 91... and confirm this tomorrow.....
Not sure if this helps at all, but the CRX headlights are also the same as the Civics. The glass is the same, but there's a slight difference in the baskets. The Civic basket has a tab on it to mount one corner of the turn signal. I doubt this causes any problems when mounted on a CRX. If it does, you can simply cut it off.
The headlights themselves are interchangeable, but the black, metal bracket that is bolted to the back is different. It's easy to swap the brackets, as long as you have the right one for your car.
There is one minor difference between the headlights I've noticed. The 90-91 style has a black rubber tube coming out of the back. I assume it is a vent to prevent moisture build up in the light.
