I think my CB7 is wierd

[newjdmdriver]

ok I have a 1992 Honda accord DX sedan. Now I think this is the lowest grade that accords where made in "correct me if im wrong". I noticed that I have no passenger side view mirrior and I have no rear speakers either. And on the steering wheel there is a huge un used space where on most cb's I see controlls of some type. My friend has a nice littel arm rest and even a pop out cup holder. whats the deal ???? The guy I bought it from said it came like this. its like I have to piece the puzzle together and find all these parts to add to my cb7. Has any one else seen or had the features that im listing here???

You are right. The DX was the base trim.

It's possible that all the things you have mentioned (passenger side mirror, cruise, rear speakers, arm rest, cup holder) were only available as options to the DX.

correct, somebody bought a VERY base model of the DX. i had a 92 corolla with all the same features missing, didnt even have a rear defrost...

hahha my friend said something like that the other day, he has a 1990 integra RS (lowest trim level). no power anything, two front speakers only, shitty interior. he was like...my car sucks. lol im not any better, i have a lx 4dr cb7. no power anything FTW

you're joking?
my corolla dx has it..
only think doesn't has is rear speaker( i think )/ replace with big one..
and no RPM but not a problem since its 5-SPD..

[newjdmdriver]

hmmm ok I see, well Ill just see about adding most of these things later on. I mean at lease it has a driver side air bag

[deevergote]

The airbags were mandatory. If they could cut that out, they would


I had a DX that was almost as stripped down. I had rear speakers, but that was it. It was the first one I had ever seen with no passenger side mirror.

DX is the lowest US model. The same thing is called LX in Canada.

Also, in other countries, there were 2.0L and 1.8L engines available for CB Accords... some were carbureted. Our DX isn't so shabby when you think of a small 1.8L SOHC carbureted engine in a car like this!

no clock, no cruise, no defroster, no speakers, no tape deck, VERY VERY base. it was crazy, my cheap grandma was the one who bought it. we added most features on our own... stick-on clock, Jensen rear speaker pods, and a roll-on rear defroster i DID have a passenger mirror tho...

[deevergote]

Wow, no clock? Cars in the 50s had clocks!

but mine had the rear speakers, and central locking..the base CB1 EX didnt have central locking,different a/c (sliders), non folding mirrors.. my EXL had the 'normal' a/c and.....

its original wing mirrors were on the front fenders!! too bad my late grandfather didnt take photos of them mirrors..

Really? CBs came with mirrors on the fenders? I thought that was a 70's style thing! I wish I could see that!
