Adding a sunroof to a CRX from CRX Si
 
I was wondering what would be the best solution. I have a CRX Si Shell that i dont need anymore. Can I cut and weld the piece off the CRX Si? What tools is best to use to cut through the crx metal.

best solution is not to do it. Your going to just ---- up a perfectly good car.

didn't someone already do this on hmt? i think i remember seeing while i was searching through all the old pages. i think it turned out pretty good, but i don't remember. if you don't trust yourself cutting into your car then don't do it. cuz your gunna ---- ---- up and hate yourself for it.

You technicly need to swap more than the roof skin. You should swap all the top crossmembers that the sunroof bolts to as well to retain the rigidity of the shell. Otherwise your roof will cave in VERY easily if it ever gets hit somehow.

if your not into having a full on race car then the added luxuries are nice. i bought the ex civic for the sunroof and all of the power options cause i want a quick daily driver. if i wanted a race car i would get an 88 crx hf and gut it out
