Default center console in 89 civic

these civic's don't come with cup holders in them and i was curious if a piece from a 94 up integra would work to go from the piece that comes down from the dash to the console on the floor, let me know if anyone has ever done this before, i was just curious before i go out and buy one.

here's a pic of my 4dr i recently took. yes its dirty and i should have grabbed the e-brake handle when i did this swap also, but it still fit and looks ok and the arm-rest is a huge plus.

Would it fit a '91 sedan?? I've been told it won't fit cuz of the big belt things on the inner side of the seats....I'm talking about the seatbelt reels....

Youre correct, 94+ Integra consoles wont work in your '91 sedan because of those seatbelt things. Those seatbelts are the only thing i hated about my '91 sedan.

someone actually did a integra console in a 4 door. He turned the seatbelt things around. Let me see if I can find the thread.
EDIT: here it is

B17Boost: I don't uderstand what you mean when you say it sits higher? I would say try to pull on the sides and make it sit right. Its only plastic. Does it line up while sitting high??

Default Re: (91civicLX)

one more question for all you people that have done this, i put one in my 89 civic lx 4 door and i was just curious if there are more than 2 screws that actually match up to hold it in, the only two screws i put in were next to the cd player in the dash, anyone know if i have to drill holes anywhere else and put more screws or is it a tight enough fit that you don't have to do this, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!!!!

If I switched to 88/89 seatbelts, it would work..right? How can I go about switching?? I went by Honda today and cuz the previous owner CUT the passive seatbelt (the one that goes along the window).....it voided the lifetime seatbelt warranty.....

I'm also running a 3 point Sabelt for myself...and will put one for passenger for canyon runs..but I want normal seatbelts for daily driving...

88-91 Si seats come with the seat belt hooker thinger attatched to the seat. Get those and you wont have a problem putting the console in.
