fronts yes, rears depends on the company, most companies make the same rear for 92-00 and just include washers for the 96-00 cause there lca is smaller, some companies like koni actually make the u part smaller so you cant put one from a 96 on a 95 unless you spread it... good luck...

Front will with no problem. For the rear, you may need to grind them down a bit. I would recommend getting 94-01 (DC) struts; those will bolt up no problem.

I would say get DC ones for the rear too unless you are getting the EK ones for cheap. I had some Tokicos from an EK that worked fine on my EG hatch, only after a little grinding down on the LCAs. I also got some KYBs that were a little harder to get to work.

So unless you are getting one hell of a deal, I'd say save yourself some work and get DC struts
