I dont think it will work. I Swapped a B18C, which had a bent dipstick, in place of a D15 in a 95 civic. I tried to use the D15 dipstick but it was different. i would assume the B16 and D16 dipstick are not the same also.

my d16 dipstick measure 10 3/8" from just the metal part of the dipstick.
(not counting the orange and green parts)
