Default 96 dx no sway bars

howdy. I have a 96 dx hatch. It is currently sitting on K sport coilovers. It handles "ok" at best, but it leaves lots of room to be toyed with.

Being that It does not have front or rear sway bars, I figured even just a set of factory sway bars will help out my cravings quite a bit.

Im not sure if the ex has both front and rear sway bars. If it does, Ill probably just grab the factory bars, end links, and "C" mounts from a salvage yard, but front and rear control arms from an aftermarket source.

Basically what I want to know, is what cars could I grab the parts i need from, and are these all the parts i need?
From what i understand, i need:
Sway bars both front and rear
sway bar endlinks and "C" mounts
front and rear lower control arms.

comments, suggestions, tips are all welcome

just make sure you match up the front sway bar to the front lca's. ex: Si/CTR sway bar with Si/CTR Lca's, EX/HX (you can use DC2 one's also) sway bar with EX/HX front lca's. reason being is because they mount differently at the ends.

as for the rear, you can use your stock rear lca.
