Difference between LX and EX?

Hey do both LX 's and EX's have those dome lights above the rear view mirror ( not the ones near the center of the ceiling) ?

I've got them. Although I do think there might be a slight difference in the design depending on where the sunroof controls are on the EX.

Arren't all the sunroof controls in a totally different location so it wouldn't make a difference?
I've got a Canadian SI [US EX] and my controls are beside my mirror controls.. I didn't think they put the sunroof controls up by the lights in the 7th gen.

Homer's sunroof is an aftermarket install. He has a n LX. A rather clean one I might add.

The only difference between the lx and ex is the sunroof, motor, and some power options. My 2001 ex has the map lights in the front like in the picture.

XxSoVeReiGNxX thank you very much for the compliment.

Another difference is between the LX and EX,at least the 2001's is ABS. I do not have it on my LX. I believe ther differences are ABS, moonroof, cd player, engine, and body colored mirrors and door handles. Those were the differences I know of on the 2001's and I believe the 02's, in 03 I believe the mirrors and/or door handles are body colored.
