In 96 they had both DX-anniversary and a DX-SE which were basically
the same car, a DX with factory installed AC and stereo which were
otherwise dealer installed options on the regular DX. These cars also
had painted mouldings and door handles.
Power door locks can be installed by a car alarm shop, but power
windows would be a little harder, but not impossible.

 

Sounds great ima pass by a nice spot for their opinion but i didnt want to pay a premium for that.And the universal kits are pretty simple, they attach to the manual crank from the inside. But i wanted to go for a more OEM look. Ah well. I like power locks for remote entry and alarms and stuff. And While speaking of alarms, does anybody have a good one to recommend.

 

All my mouldings are black so what does that mean? definite DX? and its a 1997 so i dont know if 96 stuff applies??

 

You do have the regular DX then with the DX emblem removed like
someone else posted. sorry, I had 96 stuck in my head.

 

what about the mirrors?

 

Well, I'm not sure about the 5th gen Accords (94-97) but concerning the 6th generation Accords, the only models that have painted moldings & mirrors the same color as the car are the EX and EX-V6. But it is still an option for other models. So don't be suprised if you see a DX with painted moldings and mirrors.

 

Why dont you just look at your car title?

 

Napa seems to think us 6thG/I4 owners use a 2.2L..

::rollseyes::

 

OK update i just got my car back from the mechanic and the mirror and door handles are the exact same color as the car so does that rule out DX?

 

can you post a picture?
