look for 88 4drs. they dont have auto seat belts. and i think the 88-89 crx's and hatch's might work, the rest are door mounted.

Re: Auto to Manual Seatbelt Conversion

automatic seatbelts net you a discount on auto insurance, well at least in NY they do.

Re: Auto to Manual Seatbelt Conversion

well just got back, got some gray manual seatbelts and the top trim pieces so it will all fit right in my EX. the only thing i'm gonna have a problem with it where i bolt in the female part of the seatbelt; i may just have to drill a hole or something.

i'm also a little ticked off b/c i found two relays looking for the main relay, one of them had a broken clip so i tossed it; that was the main relay... bah, oh well, i'll probably just got order a new one. anyone know how much thsoe run?

Re: Auto to Manual Seatbelt Conversion

FYI to all: this isn't very easy

with most cars if the body styles are the same they will have the same bolt holes and whatnot, just to make it easier on the manufacturer. Honda didn't get the memo. The holes aren't lining up and the place where the seatbelt retractor is supposed to hit is too small... blah, i gotta get this workin somehow...

Re: Auto to Manual Seatbelt Conversion

and its done... my advice to anyone wanting to do this: don't its a total bitch to do, but its done iwth. what i wish i could have done was cut out the entire pillar and cut out the part with the holes in it and weld that in, it would be been easier... but yeah, pics to come
