Not Different. If what you're curious about is the radio connector; the adapters for aftermarket radio chassis installations call out the same P# for those year ranges.

You could also go to Crutchfield, say your car is a 94 or 95 Accord and put a head unit into the shopping basket. The harness will be automatically added (or maybe it's added when go to checkout). Write down the harness part number, then go back and say your car is a 96 or 97, and do the same thing. If the part numbers match up, there's your confirmation. But all four years are of the same generation so I wouldn't expect them to be different.

OBD1 and OBD2 have nothing to do with the OEM radio in Accords. It is Part of the Engine Management System.
As a Point of Interest; Civics, where some years include the radio in the car security system; Accords do not.
For Accords, it's Plug, Play & Pray

Play around with different year Accords at http://www.crutchfield.com , you'll find the year that they changed. I'd do it for you but it's something you need to do yourself so you'll know how to do it next time.
