Default Steel Braided Brake Lines

I'm shopping around for some right now, but I'm not sure whether or not Integras,Civics, or Prelude ones will fit. Does anyone have any experience in this field? I've searched HT along with other CRV sites but haven't found any info. I know Preludes have the same front calipers as our V's but that's about it...not 100% sure with the rear.

I have been wondering the same. I have a friends ek at my house right now. I'll check to see if his lines are the same. I'm sure the fittings are the same, just need to find out the length.

I didn't get a chance to look and he finally finished the car and took it home yesterday. I'll check it next time I see him though

I have been told the prelude ones will fit but check Honda and see if the part numbers match. I do know that a rear disc conversion has been done before using 97-01 prelude rears, they just had t make their own mounting brackets. Knowing this information I would venture to say the Lude lines would work.

Even if they come up with different part numbers doesn't necessarily mean they're different parts. Model specific numbers are pretty common anymore. I know kia's are bad about that. Even the same parts differ in number from Hyundai to Kia. Make more money that way

Very true. I may have to try a few other options tomorrow, either way I'll have some answers.

From what I know, preludes have the same front caliper as our V's so I assume it would fit. I'm just wondering about the rears....

I might just have to forget about the rears for now.

03 RDX calipers are similar only difference is they are 2 piston instead of 1 from what I hear.
