Yes, doesn't neccessarily have to be from an Si though, just a civic or integra with rear disc brakes.

Yes because the 99 EX ebrake cable clips are different, they will only fit on drum brakes and not rear disc brakes.

Its supposed to be the same across all 6th gen civics, but if you want to confirm just call your local honda dealer and have them cross reference the part numbers. if they match they're the same, if not theres a difference.

Use your civic LCAs.

They are not the same, but swapping the PV is not necessarily necessary...
The SI PV is the same as for the Hatchback CX/DX: 46210-S04-902
The EX PV is: 46210-S04-962

... unless, of course, your EX is ABS...

94EG8: good looks

JasonGhostz: i heard that usuing the ex could cuz ur rear disc to lock up. thats y im trying to make sure but since the cx/dx and si pv have the same number it should be all good.

concidering this is a small project im taking my time with it.

If my trail arms are abs it wont matter right? and do i need to switch the caliper brake hose? (trail arm is off a gsr/my car is a 99 ex coupe)

It wont matter if your rear disc swap was off an ABS vehicle. You will need to swap the rubber flex hoses, the ones for rear disc brakes are different.
