I dunno what you can do about fitting that dash into the crx.
I'm sure it would be a huge pita though. The prelude is wider than the crx and wiring/mounting etc. sounds like a nightmare. Plus I'd imagine that the Prelude dash is a LOT heavier than the CRX.

I own a '94 Prelude Si and an '89 CRX Si and to be honest the electroluminescent dash is a little too busy for my tastes. It should look interesting if you do decide to go through with it. Good Luck!

Good luck rewiring it, trimming it to fit and making it work right. Plus that dash is gigantic compared to a CRX dash. I don't like prelude dashes very much. The crx dash is probably one of the best looking Honda dashes ever made.

I would try the GSR cluster swap. Or you could always go custom. Might require more work. It's up to you. Good luck.

I always thought that a del slo interior (seats, dash, center console, rear compartments) in my crx would kick *** but shot it down prety quick cause it just didn't seem wise to try.

This could look interesting and I'm sure it would be a lot more doable than a Prelude. I'm a fan of the simplistic crx dash myself though.

I remember about a year or more ago someone was putting a mid 90's (i think) prelude dash, seats and door panels in an EF. He had the dash set in the car and it looked Good. But I think he was stuck on the door jambs. I don't remember who it was either. Sorry. I was no help at all was I?????
