This has been covered over 1000 times...
They don't bolt directly on. You will need to add spacers in the rear because the EK's LCAs are skinnier than the EGs. It's not a great idea to fill it with washers either. Washers are made to compress & will eventually become loose.
Don't think about using EG rear LCAs either because the EK's LCAs are almost an inch longer (different chassis mounting point)...

^^ Correct. I bought Tokico Illuminas which are for 92-00 civics. I just used a single washer per side of the shock and it worked I checked on it periodically, but never had any problems at all. Not all shocks are for 92-00, but Tokico is and its fine with a washer there, just keep an eye on it.

If so, you could probably call them directly to buy 4 as spare parts...</TD></TR></TABLE>
They do come with spacers. ^^^Probably best to do this.
