Default Tried a Search: Is the A/C compressor interchangeable on EG/EK?

I tried a search and it was tough because I couldn't search "AC or A/C". I used "air, conditioning, air conditioning, compressor, blah blah blah".

All I found were questions about B-series and D-series, which are obvious. But can you use eg/ek compressors interchangeably or do the lines not match up?

Thanks in advance.

If by EK you are referring to 96-00 civics, keep in mind that there are two kinds of compressors made for the 99-00 models - D and B series (dx/lx/ex v. si) compressors are different. I wish I could tell you more, but I won't know for sure until I install AC into my car next week.

yes EG/EK a/c compressors are interchangable for d-series motors.
as far as for b series. you can use the P54 del sol bracket or the P7J CRV bracket to continue to use the d-series compressor. as for the b-series compressor. you'll have to find away to interchange the a/c charge lines. or have someone make you one.
