crx door compatibility?
 
I have a 88hf. i need a drivers side door. i found one but it has the seatbelt mounted on the door instead of the chassis(which mine does) will the 90-91 door fit on my 88hf?

Yes, the 90-91 doors will fit the 88-89, however the door mounted seat belts are homo, and the moldings on the 90-91 are thinner, you cant even swap the 88-89 moldings over.

Also, what makes the 88's so light is the fact the doors are lighter, they dont have nearly as beefy support beams in it like the 89-91's.

that whole seat belt mounting thing kicks my ass, I have a broken window in my good 88, and a good window in my fucked up 90 and I can't swap it over.

Just becarful if you decide you want to remove that "support beam" because you can easily ---- up a mint door like beau did on his race car, lol =)

I may have what you need, I'll check tomorrow. I installed OEM power windows, so I have the crank assm. I had to swap some stuff around between the original and the replacement to get it to work, but I don't remember exactly what.

find a Canadian door, all 88-91 canadian doors are car mounted belts ;)

I prefer the door mounted seatbelt, myself. Except for their habit of not winding all the way and punching a hole through the door panel.
I replied to your WTB post.

I prefer them as well. Same downside that you pointed out. I have made it a habbit to make sure the thing is owund up before that door shuts.

I'd much rather have safety over a 100th of a second in 1/4 mile.

i went ahead and bought the doors that have door mounted seatbelts. i like having the extra protection of the imapct beam, and the seatbelts arent that hard to take off.

I do too, but unfortunately my CRX's previous owner didn't.

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
just use the door mounted doors on the 88 and use your regular pillar belts. Have the safety of the 90-91 doors and you loss the annoying door belts :P

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
heres another one..

My 89 has door mounted belts, and I scored some 88 doors for cheap the same color as my car! now I really want to use them because my doors are rotted bad (one has a hole in it) and these are pretty mint.

Will pillar mounted belts just bolt into my car? Where the hell am i gonan find em? Should I just get a c-pillar suspension bar and mount 4pts to it and call it a day?

crxrx7 12-21-2004 08:44 PM

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
I would think that they would just bolt right in but the trim would have to be cut, left off ot just find new ones.

AgentMurdoc 12-22-2004 12:16 AM

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
can't you just put the door mounted seat belts 'n stuff onto the 88 doors? I think someone I met did that, since you have both handy, I'd look into it.

ne3ek 12-22-2004 08:26 AM

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
hrm.. ya i may try that as well.

B16CRXT 12-23-2004 09:28 AM

Re:crx door compatibility?
 
I've got the passenger side interior peice that the seatbelt goes through (with the hole for mounting) for sale if you want it. It's blue.
