good thing it's just a concept lol

I think if the Accord hatch is reincarnated it's going to look retarded like the CTS coupe. Haha, I just realized that the CTS coupe is actually the Catera Touring Sedan coupe.

Can anyone tell me what the specific bulb numbers are used in a 1989 Honda Accord Hatchback Lxi glovebox, interior ceiling light, and whatever the light behind the "passenger-seatbelt-is-not-buckled" indicator above the rear view mirror is called.

The guy at autozone told me a Sylvania DE3022 LL would work for the glovebox, however thats a 13V 4.9W bulb and the chilton repair manual I have says it's a 12V bulb that goes there in the glovebox. I don't want to open it to try it in case it's the wrong one, so I can return it. I haven't found any luck searching for what bulbs would fit there on the internet.

I've been all around and under my 89 Accord LXi. Still looking for a grease fitting. Am I missing them or is everything "lubricated-for-life"? Should I throw away my grease gun? Just wondering? She runs fine, like to keep it that way!

If my constant-velocity boot has disintegrated, should I replace the whole axle and everything or can I just replace the boot?

LOL. I did the same thing when I bought my first Honda. I was like, :WTF? There are no Zerk fittings on these cars. Every joint is either supported by a rubber bushing, or a sealed ball joint.

Welcome to the board, by the way.

You can replace the boot, but it's a GIGANTIC mess. I would replace the axle.

I have P195/60R14 85H tires on my coupe (standard/factory size) on the factory 14x5.5" wheels (technically from a Prelude, I guess). Will my tires fit on 14x5" steelies from a 1988 Civic?

I'm trying to find a piece of interior that is from the hatchback version of the 86-89 accord. Its that folding cover thing that goes over the trunk contents so people can't see into the contents of the trunk underneath it. Can anyone tell me the name of this folding interior piece is?

you can get moog suspension parts for this car with grease fittings, I have the tie rod ends from them, and being able to force grease through them, and being able to force out the crud, makes a big difference

good luck, you can get them from the junkyard if you are very lucky, the last time I checked at Honda was years ago, and just the folding piece was over 500 dollars, if you have the brackets from the piece that lifts up with the hatch, it's very easy to make one, you may have to get creative in your case too, they are made from heavy molded cardboard with upholstery stuff over them, thats it

Well, I have 2/3rds of the folding piece, I'm just missing the part that is closest to the hatch window. I might end up just making one if I can't find one... does the folding piece have a actual name?

Thanks for the info!

What's the bulb size for the bumper turn signals?

Did left hand drive coupes/hatches/aerodecks ever have a mirror delete plate for the left hand side mirror? (Like the right hand side mirror delete plate for our DX coupes and hatches.) If not, how hard would it be to replicate the passenger side one in a "mirrored" (ha) version for the driver's side?

[CA5_KMT_LX]

you need to use a photo hosting site like photobucket to host your pictures, paste the img code in the thread, you don't have a garage because you aren't a foundation member

Why would you want to delete the Drivers side mirror ?

because he's Charlie?

I guess I didn't see this:

you know you have to be Chip Foose to get away with no mirrors lol

[charliekuney]

I like the look and for a while I drove without a passenger side or rear view mirror which made me turn and look more and depend on my mirrors less.
