Alright i think my hatch is considered a 3dr(open window up then pop down the bottum part). Well i got a futon(sp) back there and i dont really like the fact that u have to put ur weight on that part to get in and out y'know? can u swap the hatches out?

ps

girls <3 hatches
girls guys with futons in their hatches

 

Yes, you can remove the hatch. But you won't be able to close the window.

 

nah bro, im askin if i can change a 3dr into a 2dr so the hole thing opens up from the bumper upwards.

 

Nope, I haven't heard of anybody trying to convert the hatch to like EF/EK style.

 

The hatch is strong...I stand on mine all the time, have had 2+ friends sit on it...if thats what ur worried about?

 

yeah i am worried that the part that flips toward you and lays flat extending the trunk part yknow. But u can stand on it? tight..i thought some eg hatches opens all the way up in 1 piece? hence the 2dr or 3dr hatch thing?

i think they thought its a hatchback conversion to a two door. and didn't read the first post, or it just sounds funny by saying it. haha.

 

you sleep on a futon that's in the back of your hatch?

wtf?

x2

 

wasnt it just the 92's that did that? or do all the 92-95 hatches do that?

 

all hatches from 92-95 had this.

 

they ALL did??

then wtf did every insurance place ask if it was 3dr or 2dr knowing it was a hatchback??

pics tomorrow!

 

all 92-95's open like that. didnt know it was considered a door though. i like how the ek's hatch open up more but... w/e.

 

Sometimes you can find the integra listed as a 3dr or hatch. Just yesterday I saw the accord listings as 2dr, 4dr, 5dr (wagon). It mainly has to do with the rear section opening up to the passenger compartment. Most automotive definitions makes that hatch count as a door.

The only way to change this would be to bolt/weld in a new latch, build a sturdy frame to attatch the lower gate to the window, and add some very heavy-duty struts for it all.

 

The hatch was designed like that. It's not weak...and not that conversion isn't too popular...if anything ... I doubt it's been done...

Don't worry about it break or anything...

 

..dude..unly ek's open up like that....2/3dr refers to whether it sa hatchback or a COUPE....three types h/b,coupe and 4dr sedan...so h/b or coupe..hope this is clear..

 

It dosent matter if they call it a hatch or a 3dr. A car refered to as a hatch will always be a three door. The word hatch means door.

 

dude im like 350 and my homie is like 300. we sit on mine all the time. no problems.
