Last May i found a 1991 crx si on craigslist and decided to buy it and sell my 93 hatch. I was told it needed a new clutch and a/c compressor. Since i bought it i have replaced the clutch, front and rear brake pads, front and rear brake rotors, rear brake calipers, master cylinder, ignition switch, and struts.

Well the first night i bought it, it rained and i awoke to find a large puddle behind the drivers seat. I ripped the interior apart to let it dry and also found my problem which was clogged sunroof drain tubes.



So after completely stripping and putting back in my interior i decided that i would never let this happen again. Istarted looking for a new sunroof, a used non-rusty one, or a sunroof plug. A new sunroof was $400 so that option was out, no one had a used crx sunroof so that option was out, and sunroof plugs were almost as expensive as a new sunroof. So what do i do? Ghetto-ify. My dad and I took fiberglass and made a template using the old rusty sunroof and used brackets and silicon to secure it in. This approach was functional but very ugly. We decided to bondo it flush and paint the entire roof. Its pretty now, but still needs real paint instead of spray paint.

here's the car as she sits-







i will post more pics when the roof's painted and she's actually clean

 

Nice to see a CRX on here getting some love. Ive always wanted one.
