Default 1998 hatch questions

Well I just bought a 1998 hatch with a rebuild title for 900 but it came with GSR front and rear leather seats, also rear disk conversion and I/h/and full cat back and CTR wing,midwing,rear lip and si skirts well I got some questions that needs to be answer.

1. Which exhaust from other Acura's/ Honda's will fit the ek hatch?

2. Will the 99 dash fit in a 1998 hatch?

3. Do the Integra center console fit the ek hatch?

4. What rear seats directly bolt in without leaving a gap?

5. What suspension from other cars I can use from my EK?

6. Do the wood board that covers the spare tire from a coupe/sedan will those fit over my hatch?

7. Can I put the airbag from the 1998 dash into the 99?

Thats all the questions for now until I find some more problems. Thanks to all

1. Which exhaust from other Acura's/ Honda's will fit the ek hatch? i believe without modification 92-00 civic any hatchback
2. Will the 99 dash fit in a 1998 hatch? yes but im almost positive they are the same save for the climate control.
3. Do the Integra center console fit the ek hatch? not sure someone help me out on this one i don't think it would without the whole dash. are you talking about the armrest section?
4. What rear seats directly bolt in without leaving a gap? factory EK seats (obviously)
5. What suspension from other cars I can use from my EK? any 92-00 except type r the rear LCA's are different
6. Do the wood board that covers the spare tire from a coupe/sedan will those fit over my hatch? not sure if anything it would be too long, probably could cut it down no problem.
7. Can I put the airbag from the 1998 dash into the 99? im 99% sure you can someone else verify the other 1%
Thats all the questions for now until I find some more problems. Thanks to all </TD></TR></TABLE>

You have to convert the manual sliders to digital *****, it requires a LOT of wiring and splicing.

Not worth it.

Just get one for your car.

Integra 4-door bottoms and any tops will work for rear seats. Though I'd just get the OEM's reupholstered as it looks, and fits better for about the same price.

5. What suspension from other cars I can use from my EK?
-Others will work, but springrates and LCA bolts will be a little different. Just buy parts for 6th gen cars.

6. Do the wood board that covers the spare tire from a coupe/sedan will those fit over my hatch?
- Yes, I believe the boards are all the same.

7. Can I put the airbag from the 1998 dash into the 99?
-Yes, make sure you do research before you do though. On how to do it properly and not kill yourself.

Lastly, most OEM exhausts will fit on your car, RSX-s mufflers are a tight fit, I have an 07 si muffler on the way and I think it will fit much better.
