The conversions are all the same. Cut, bend, weld, grind, bondo, paint, rewire. If you want to learn how to do it, you'll have to apprentice at a body shop for a couple years.

Never seen or heard of it being done. You might be on your own with that one.
I have seen DC2 integra tail lights on an EF CRX here locally. Horrible, absolutely hideous. It wasn't that the work wasn't decent. IMO the look just did not go well with the CRX's body lines and it made the back look eww.
I've floated similar ideas through my head and thought DA integra tails might look ok; better match for body lines. But then I remembered another reason that other CRX looked bad. If you were to put on these style of lights you have a big space to fill in between them and it throws off the blending effect that stock tail lights do with the hatch.
My plan is to get the clear OEM style tail lights and smoke them.
If you can, take a picture of the back of your car and the back of the prelude and do a Photochop to get a better visual of what it could look like. It's the cheapest way to find out if you really want to go through with the idea. Hope my .02 helps
