Are they all the same? I am talking about replacing the metal door sking but keeping the 88 crx si interior door panel.

 

I believe you can ony use 88 doors, and an 89 HF door....

 

Why is that though?

 

Because of the door mounted seatbelts...

 

I think all the door skins are the same but the actual doors are diff from the 88s and 89-91's. the 88 crx's had pillar mounted belts and so did the 89 HF's everythign else had door mounted belts. Teh actual doors are diff but the skins are the same.

Was gonna make my own thread but I guess I dont have to. Could anyone tell me what doors fit a 89 Crx Si?

Its does not have door mounted seat belts and the car I want to buy has rusty doors so I wanna swap em out

 

Yeah, I meant everything but the door panel.

For example:

89 CRX door with the 88 inner door panel.

 

well i think they all fit but, the 90-91 door molding is thicker than the 88-89 door molding. and u might also have the trouble with the seat belt too!!

 

all u have to do with a 90-91 door is just unbolt the seatbelt setup, and use the 88 seatbelt setup. and also put your 88 molding on the door since the 90-91 is thinner.

i no this from hands on experience, not from what my brothers gf's cousin read online

But why would you want to use 1990-1991 doors? People get 1988 cars (and 1989 HF models) simply to avoid the increased weight of 1989-1991 doors.

 

damn hybrids of the hybrids.. for REALS

 

Get any year of doors from a Canadian model the all have pillar mount seat belts. Rob

I am canadian so I don't know this for sure but I believe the 88-89 us doors didn't have side impact bars, but the 90-91's did. Where as the canadian doors always had the pillar mounted seat belts(as was already stated) and always had side impact bars(I have a 89 door on my 90 crx).

 

I need a door too, and have come to the understanding that (in US models) the 88(all) and 89(HF) is the one you HAVE to use. I don't know what the deal is with using just the shell from and 89=-91, but I know the 88 will work. Now I don't believe the 88-89 had the impact bars in the door, thus making them lighter.

Either way I still need a drivers side door

 

So what doors fit my 89 Crx SI?? (BTW I am from canada) will all kinds from every year work in canada?

 

i actually think they're different..
they seem the same, but seriously, i rewired a 90 with 89 wires.. and honestly, it's much different! so it wouldn't surprise me if they were different.

 

I dont understand how they could be the same?? I mean the 88's and 89 HF's have different windows than the 89 DX's and Si's and the 90/91's so how could they be the same?? Now they may bolt on but I think if anything it would look goofy since there are more differences than just the seatbelts on the doors...Like the metal bar or whatever you would call it under the door that goes into the loop on the door sill or the size of the door sashes. I think you should stick with the door that was meant for your car so all 88's and 89 HF's with eachother and 89 DX's,Si's and 90/91's with eachother. Now what about the star head bolts on the sides of the doors?? Do 88's and 89 HF's have those as well?? They are 2 like bolts with wider heads that use a star key to put them on I think they have something to do with supporting the door so it doesnt sag I would assume?? But do all years have those as well?

 

So for my car a 89 Crx Si

Doors from a 89 dx/si will fit as well as 90-91 all models?

Im in canada and going to the junkyard tomorrow and this answer will definetely help me

Well if your in Canada you shouldnt have to worry about the year since they are all the same I beleive (none have seatbelts in the doors right)?? Although I think the 88/89's dont have the extra door beam inside them like the 90/91's do?? But again I could be wrong??

 

Even with that centre beam the doors are still interchangeable right?
