might wanna get EFI first man...
and leather, and BOSE stereo... and whatever other cool gizmo's the SEI had, and then you would be the first HB sei...
actually that would be really cool to do... convert a HB into SEI style...
My SEi didn't come with the factory bronzed windows... what's up with that?

What do you mean by EFI? IM deffently considering it since i already have a prefect body Hatchback! Should i start out with the LXI body style? cuz right now i got a DX. Thx for the info tho! HELPS ALOT! also...happy early x-mas guys

From EFI, you need the following:
Bose Stereo
Leather Interior
Bronze tinted windows
SE-i rims
Rear brake discs
Dual tipped exhaust
Steering wheel with stereo controls
Center armrest
Start hittin the junkyards...

yeah, if ur really serious about converting to SE-i style then the smartest way to start is with an 88-89 LX-i Hb. otherwise, you have to deal with the hassle of a full EFI swap, power antenna, larger front brakes, power windows, electronic heater controls, power sunroof, Cruise control, power mirrors, etc.Originally posted by 87accordHB

Then from there you'll have to upgrade to SE-i style with rear disc, Bose stereo with all the goodies, leather including center console and all interior trim panels along with CUPHOLDERS.
By starting with a 88-89 LX-i with sunroof, you eliminate the whole first step just to get it to LX-i spec.
Good luck man!
I'm gonna be as close as I wanna be with my 89 hatch. I already have the larger front brake upgrade, and the rear disc, and full center console will be in as soon as the snow melts. Other then that, it's a DX!

Don't forget the drivers seat with the lumbar adjustment... and the option of opening and closing the left and right vents from under the dimmer controls.
I though all 3G's had that closing L and R vent levers. I dont' remember seeing a 3G without one. Both my cars have 'em.Originally posted by 87DXHatch

..but you did remind me of one more thing, that little switch between the center dash vents.
and that little retarted fucking light just behind the ignition switch in the steering wheel surround to illuminate the key hole. Oh yeah, that and the little courtesy lights on the LX-i door panels.

Even though I took it off 'cause I did not like it, but don't forget the SEi emblem on the trunk.Originally posted by markmdz89hatch

Did you guys know that the Factory Bose stereo system that came with the SEi had a factory Amp? I didn't know until I changed the stereo system in my car. It had a weird ass set up too. Any ways, I just thought to let yall know. Now yall can go andyourselves

yeah.. i guess that amp had a lot of problems.. someone said something about the capacitors being bad. (i might check that out in my old one.. see if i can repair it.. there are companies that do that for our bose systems)
BTW, if you have an SE-i .. the tinted windows... if you ever replace a window.. YOU'LL KNOW the difference.. anybody wanna sell a pass. front sei window??!? it pisses me off that the shop didn't swap that back in.. anyway.
This useless space for sale, please inquire at the front desk.
Yea, I know what you are talking about dosh8er. Someone has replaced the drivers side back window on my SE-i and it just does not match.

My '87 DX doesn't have the levers for opening and closing the vents...
:lol you guys have to understand I went from the lowest of the low, to the highest of the high, so every little doo-dad and thingy makes me squeal with glee...
How about:
lighted passenger sun-visor
dead pedal (I have one in my automatic... why? I know not)
smooth felt over both sun-visors
lids on the back storage compartments
(feel free to correct me on any of these that I'm wrong on too)
shit..forget that...ima get me a 89 LX-i or SE-i![]()
