info on installing a sedan dash in a 91rtfwd?

Phixx

i saw that the dash is installable but with modification. can someone please tell me the install process ( what part needs modding) ? pics would be great i have a helms manual so if you could just give me an idea i would appreciate it.

from my understandings; it may fit but the portion from the dash to the windshield is longer in Wagons and Shorter in sedans, crx's, hatches...

meaning there would be a gap between winshield and dash... to remedy this User: akiraboy cut the top portion
of his wagon dash and glued it to the top portion of his crx dash...

Aren't the dashes two pieces? I though the split lengthwise and are held together by like plastic rivets and glue. Maybe I'm thinking of a different car but I thought the split right side to side right over the dash clock.

Good example from this CRX dash:

Pretty sure you can remove the upper grey part from the lower black part. You might have to make some sort of brackets to mount it back together or lots of glue or something but you could probably hybrid a wagon and sedan dash together. Or even a wagon and CRX dash...

yeh they are made up of a few parts. most of it can be unscrewed and taken apart, or plastic spot welds melted.

the top portion does definately separate from the lower piece.

yeah, that looks familiar...

thanks for the help guys i have a few screw holes in the center of my dash. so i will be replacing the dash and painting the entire interior beige. I believe that is the sir color?

Huh? Beige in an SiR?

Maybe beige in that SiR Special CRX that someone posted on hear, actually I think that was wrapped in tan leather. I think Si(R) is black and dark grey

all siR's came with black dash

the CRX Exclusive had complete tan interior, including seats

some 1.5X Style II's had half beige half black dash and door cards
