Default dash swaps

My buddy and I are redoing his entire interior. we wanted to take out AC and all that good stuff, and we figured if we could, we'd swap a dash in there.

My main question is, will an RSX dash fit with little to no modification?

and what other dashs' will fit?

thanks for your help.

What civic is it? Me and my friend put a gsr dash in his eg hatch with only a few mods. The main vent in the middle had to be cut down and i think something around the steering wheel area but i can't remember what. The biggest thing i think is getting the door panels to fit. And neither of us has done anything like this before and it turned out fine.

go to password:jdm.com and you can buy a custom dash kit that links the center consol to the dash like the 92 prelude style... it looks good u should check it out.. i got one and it was worth the money

I've seen it done in a magazine, Honda Tuning I think. I'll check some of my back issues. It was in an EG though. Here is a link to wire the RSX cluster into a 96-00 Civic
