    Check today's posting in this newsgroup:

    Another Honda customer has brought his Accord back to the dealership
    *twice* for rattles in the sunroof area, that they have not fixed yet.

    Even if I had the sunroof closed, I might have to deal with this issue.
    But since my Accord pseudo-EX has no sunroof, there is no problem!!

    The sunroof (in most cases), causes the interior to have less headroom. This
    has been my experience in the past.

    change a buncha stuff though. bob

    What else would you have to change? I have considered this for my '91
    Accord. It is the one thing I would really like to change on the car.

    I would put the '90-93 wheels on; They are four lug and I am not sure
    what else would be different.

    My '90 Accord had a sunroof. In the morning, when my body was taller, I had
    to open the inside slider to get headroom. Hardly ever used the sunroof at
    all.

    I think the whole backing plat is different. They are 15'' too. bob#1

    There is nothing to change. They fit fine. Make sure that the tires are
    195/60R15, as opposed to the 185/70R14 that came on the steel wheels. Your
    speedo will remain the same.

    15inch wheels that should work would come off of a 1986-90 Acura Legend,
    90-97 Accord,
    and maybe some vigors and 92ish preludes, but I'm not positive about the
    last two.

    I'd say that is indeed controversial. It is not an EX model no matter
    Any moron would realize it's not an EX when there is no sunroof.

    Understood. My husband is about 6' tall and has no problem with
    headroom and the sun/moon roof in his Accord EX V-6. Maybe they're
    different.
