Difference Between US Model EX versus CDN Model LX?

Just wondering if there's any major differences between the US Model Civic EX and the Canadian Model Civic LX. I'd like to get parts for my LX and there's so many parts available for the EX and just wanted to know if some of the parts for the EX will fit on the LX?

Yes there are differences between the Canadian Civic Si (Civic EX in US) and the Civic LX.
Are you from Canada?

EDIT: ok, I understand your post now...you're from canada. (I'm a bit slow...used to ride the short bus to school) Who could answer your questions better than another canadian LX owner? I dunno.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] Check out the Canada East forum, they should be able to help you out.

besides the EX and Si having VTECH, theyve also got the ABS.
i'm also pretty sure that unlike all the other model civics, the US EX (CAN Si) have body coloured sideview mirrors.

i'm just wondering : does the US EX come w/ wheel covers or alloy rims?

the CDN SI comes with alloy rims. that's what i got on mine, no extra charge. As for the ABS brakes, they come in a $1500 package that has the brakes and the air.

whoa doodz.

I have the 15" rims, with the OEM body kit. it came only on the LX, whereas if you wanted it on a coupe, you had to go with the "Si Veloz", which had this flamingly homo interior.

The LX DOES have body coloured trim, as well as body coloured mirrors. It's the primo sedan, and yes, it comes with ABS. Thankfully (i've had to use it twice now, grrr...damn ottawa drivers).

anyways, the LX doesn't have the vtec. in the states, the EX does. basically, you can't get a 4dr VTEC in canada [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] unless I'm horribly mistaken?

checkout my Ride for pics of a sedan with 15" rims (Honda).

the pics are crap, cuz they resized all weird, but I have more.

I have a Si (Canadian).
It came with ABS, sunroof and wing all included. Also included 15" alloy rims. Color mirrors and door handles.
I didnt get the skirts tho, they wanted I think another $1600 CND for those..
My brother has the same car as me, but in silver, mine is red. But his is not VTECH. I think its the LX, it doesnt have the symbol on the back. And his came with 14" hubbys. No sunroof, paid extra for the wing and skirts.
