Do u reckon VTi's have shorter rails as they ghot a sunroof which take up roof space?

I already have enough trouble getting outt my sedan (lowered) it would be so much more effort getting outta a hatch lol

yeah i noticed that i sat abit higher in my sedan compared to my hatch, figured that it was the rails. nice find :)

why were you comparing them by the way?

is height the only difference between them?

i was comparing them cos my hatch rails are stuffed
i got sedan rails and didnt swap all rails and it was wonky.. lol

thats the only difference i could tell between the two

as you can see theres about a 1cm difference

so if u sedan guys want lower rails.. get them from EG hatches!
check the DIY posted by Civic Type R. Even though its for recaros just follow the same principles
