i think its a LX how can u tell? its fully powered but no sunroof so i think it might be an LX

i realise this side of HT gets little love, never the less ill try to post the mods i do to my V, tomorow i plan to install an AEM cai intake from my civic SI and some strut bars, i am planning to paint the stock alloys nsx gunmetal untill i decide on a set of rims....

o yea i LOVE the 5 speed :D:D

nice!
the Ex has ABS, painted side mirrors and those wheels...
the LX has steel wheels...
the SE has painted bumpers, and painted side trim.
the CRV from 97-01 never had a sunroof option... if you seen it, i twas aftermarket.

I thought this was going to be your Daily Driver.... lol, i have toy'ed with the idea of turbo charging my "se-rv-e" .
although i have upgraded to the 2002-2005 crv wheels, and some EBC rotors,
i also got a set of Type R wheels, and i'm thinking about putting them on the "serve".

Goodluck...

Mine is the same but a 2000. Throw a leather Prelude SH shift **** on it. Adds a nice touch.

No US models came stock with a sunroof sorry to say. They did in Europe though. Bloody Bastards. lol

The 5spds also didn't come with a drivers side armrest either. The auotmatics did though. My drivers seat is out of a 99 EX. Oryou can get them here.

It would look goofy IMO also the hubs are different even though the lug pattern is the same. Try rotating tires on an S2K. It won't work.
