Well....*takes deep breath*

You actually have an ED. Its the first two letters in your VIN. In Japan the first two letters are EF ...and we all know its awesome to be JDM y0!

An "EG" is a 92-95
An "EK" is a 96-00
An "EP" is a 01-present

These are refering to hatches. I dont know the actual USDM letters for the other hatches because they dont have an *** like my ED

Welcome to the board.

Check for a big white sticker with black writing on the inside of your driver door. Also under the hood right near the crossmember that holds your hood latch there should be a small plaque. Mine says "Honda of Canada"

Carp...dont be so hard on yourself Its not as if calling our cars ED's is really common.
