So yesterday I went out and bought ventvistors/ventshades for my 1989 DX and the package stated : "1990-1991 Honda Civic" in small print: "For all models except CRX"

Now I never really thought about it but it seems that the visors are about 1" inch too short.

Does anyone know where abouts I can get the right length visors for under $100??

TIA

 

the ones you got might have been for a sedan, its all i can think of.

the only difference in the door other than the seatbelts is the mouldings. doors are the same size physically from 88-91

Edit: I should mention I dont mean the door for a hatch and crx or hatch and sedan are the saime, I just mean each chassis' doors are the same throughout the years minus seatbelt hardware and door cards.

 

That and the 88-89 doors don't have bracing making them quite a bit lighter. I swapped 89 doors onto my 91 DX, there quite a bit lighter. I just had to weld in my own seat belt mounts.

 

yeah, its unreal how much fatter the civic got as it got older.

reminds me of.... well, me.

 

There's no way the hatch visors would fit a sedan without modifcations. Or a wagon for that matter.

 

It seems like you bought 90-91 USDM hatchback visors, which are an inch too short because in 90-91 we got B pillars that are about an inch wider (for door seatbelts). Canada got pillar mounted seatbelts for all hatches, CRX's, and sedans, so you have the thin style B pillar.

So, you should pick up some JDM knockoffs (JDM = Canada for 88-91). Or pick up the early model USDM spec ones. AFAIK they are pretty common on eBay.

 

Junkyard, ebay, classifieds?
