How much are they asking??? You can always use them with different LCAs.

Did Canada get the fork style rear LCA on their ED/EF's? Because that's what those rear shocks will fit. They definitely wouldn't fit if you had a US 88 car. 88's (at least in the US) used the eyebolt style attachement to the rear LCA (like the Integra DC-R style).

And yeah I think they're Tokico blues also...

the spring just looks messed up because they are lowering springs and the shock is fully extended and its flopping around a bit because theres no weight on it

Yup we did. I can seem to find a pattern to it. I was searching for Si LCA for my sway bar install at the wreckers. Basically every hatch has the Cast Fork Style, and it varies on the Rex's

First take a peak under your car and see what style rear shocks you have. If you have an 88, then they most likely won't fit, unless there was a change in the canadian versions. Also, how much are they asking for them?

I have 88 rear lcas, I know I will have to swap lcas but it shouldnt be hard to find someone to swap with me as these are the more preferred style I hear

I actually already won the auction for $175 + shipping on ebay, but might sell them instead unless I hear they will be good

Ive also got a set of stprings hear at home I might just mate with some USED KYB AGX's for the cheapness and ease of not having to change out rear LCAS, dunno what to do

It's just as easy to swap out the LCA as it is to install hte shocks them selves. It's only two extra bolts considering you don't have a sway bar attached. Personally, I'd be weary of used blues. But hopefully everything turns out for you. The springs shouldn't be too bad. Eibachs are a quality brand.
