If it's the size of the OEM si sunroof (90'), go here...http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/auto/jsp/mws/catdisplay.jsp?inputstate=4&catcgry1=CRX&catcgry2=1990&catcgry3=2DR+SI&catcgry4=KH5MT&catcgry5=
and order the weather stripping rubber that outlines it, and buy a 1/4" piece of plexiglass from lowes or any other home improvement store and bolt it in. Just don't use rubber as a cushion to hold it up cuz it'll make it flex when water seeps in (it always will no matter what); instead, use some kind of plastic. Also, use good locking washers so it threads tight... the reason is because it will crack if overtightened. I have to do mine yet again. It's pretty weird looking from the outside but if you're creative you can make it look sharp. From the inside you have a nice clear view of the sky. At night time, chicks love it cuz they get wet at looking at the moon.
