Just for reference, I was under the assumption that the EF Civic/CRX heater cores were the same. After thinking about my first Civic, the controls for the venting system are different. The Civic controls are cable actuated while the CRX ones are electronic.

What I need to know is can I use a Civic heater core assembly in my CRX?

 

yeah you can all you have to do is switch over the brackets and the motor

Numbers 6, 10, 7, 8, 5

 

would this work with a 90 Civic HB DX heater core into a 90 CRX Si(with AC) ???
thanks

thats a load of BS. know what you are talking about before you say it.

 

Most of the heater cores are different when i went in to get mine i was going to use the Si one but i tried to put it in and the damn thing wouldn't fit so i had to go back and tell them to to try the standard 1.5 one this is for a hatch also

the Civic and the CRX have the same part number, the only difference is this civic is cable and the crx is electronic

 

Ummm the guys that was gonna switch it for me told me the my HB Dx has a different Part Number than my CRX Si(with AC)...so i dont know, im just going by a guy that worked at a Honda dealership and now has his own shop...unless he is just bullshitting me...oh well, thanks for the info btw

 

the part numbers are

Civic: 79100-SH3-A03
CRX: 79100-SH3-A02

the A02/3 at the end of the model number means nothing. its still the same part and you friend that worked at a honda dealer doesnt know crap

 

well i didnt know, thats why i came HERE TO FIND OUT...and so APPERENTLY my friend didnt know either...ANYWAYS THANK YOU for informing me with your wisdom...and i will come straight to you when i need help about different parts
