Ditto, I have a 90DX I would like to switch doors for multiple reasons! What other doors fit? Im pretty sure the SI doors would fit. How bout some 96 or 92 door? Wonder if anyone knows? But this post realy should be taken to the apperance/cosmetics section or to the integra and hatch forums of that year.

Good luck finding someone that knows $hit about this swap. I'd love to do it too. The relays and wiring are not there, from what I have heard. In most of my experiences with my honda, assume the worst and work from there. If you are handy with wiring and have some big ass balls, get some relays from radio shack and go to it.

I'm not positive about Honda/Acura doors, but I do know w/ Mazda's the wiring harness is already there, it's simply plug and play.

I believe the therory holds true for H and A's too. It's cheaper for the factory to install the wiring harness into all the frames, and when it comes down to putting the doors on, they put either power or manual. Therefore if you were to put a power door on the hidges, there should be a wiring harness somewhere near the joint. Try and look for it, see if the harness is there. It could be tucked in the panel behind a plug of some sort.

OK I have a friend that did this swap on his 98 hatch (I think thats the year).

He ended up having to switch out the chassis harness for some reason. I believe it was because although the fusebox has the slots in it (one fusebox for all models) there were no wires run for it.

He tried running them by hand a couple times but there were relays and a few other things he needed off the harness that just made it easier to switch the harness.

He ran into issues even after he swapped the harness and one of them being the tach and speedo weren't working for a while.

I a going to try and get ahold of him (he moved) and see if he won't post the gritty little details for ya.

Well I tried to get ahold of my buddy who did his but I can't locate him right now or he would be able to detail the entire process.

Sorry
