skunk2 camber kit install wrong part, can I make it work...
I just purchased a Skunk2 Camber kit, for my 96 Del Sol, before I ebayed it, I checked with skunk2 on which one to buy, the 92-95 civic or the 96-2000 civic, I was very sepecific with them on which kit to order, since I wouldn't be able to return it, they were very specific on which one to order, and were also very wrong.
The upper control arm from the 92-95 civic doesn't have bushings in the control arm, they are on a bracket, which is in the middle of the picture, the 96- 2000 has theirs on the control arm, that is the only main difference I see, can I get the mounts from a 96-2000 civic and still use the camber kit?
I'm going to go to Honda on Mon. morning and see how much the parts cost. If they are not too expensive I'd rather do that in order to save time.? can anyone tell me why not?

I'm sure it won't work for your 92-95 because your control arm bolts to the top of the shock tower instead of on the sides like the 96-00 control arm does. I don't see any way of modifying them.

you should check out http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com there might be a picture to help you out and if you can get the right parts it will be cheaper than the dealership.
