Default HF from DX (exterior)

Is there any ways to distinguish an HF from a DX? I don't have long distance on my phone so I can't call and ask...



that's the car, it doesn't show the under the hood pics or or back.. anyone have any ideas?

1) Hf's had a lip on the front bumper and dx's didn't
2) dx's will have a rear wiper and hf's won't

That's a crappy pic but it doesn't look like it has a lip so i will say dx?

I think that its a DX, to be sure I need a picture of the engine. But it looks like a DX.

Who cares if it's DPFI, that's easy to fix.

HF has a passenger mirror. it will also SAY HF on the back. a DX says nothing but Honda CRX. also, look at the gauge cluster. an HF will have a tach with a 5500 rpm red line, a DX will have no tach.

well, I'm trying to judge from that picture... if I saw the car in person I would just simply pop the hood

This car has a passenger mirror? man this sucks, I need long distance

and DPFI ain't too easy to fix, it's a #$@#$ to do this MPFI conversion... seeing all these people with Si's that can just simply drop a ZC right in there.

My DX did not come with that rear wiper and there is no plug on the hatch, I bought it from the orginal owner too... If you can see the seats in the pic, you will be able to tell the difference.

I had a pass mirror on my HF.

Look for no rear wiper. Dead giveaway that it's an HF if it doesn't have a wiper.

DX's don't have a rear wiper, at least my DX doesn't.
My DX has a tach, I think you have that backwards.
HF's are better just because they are the lightest and easy to swap motors (MPFI vs. MPFI, easier to hook up the electronics).
