Default NEED HELP!!!! integra shocks on a 96 civic

hey guys, i need help. i was told that integra shocks can work on a civic; therefore i bought a set for my 96 civic ex. i decided to go with the tokico blues due to limited funds and daily commuting only. i bought a set of tokico hp's for a 90-93 integra and when i went to install them, my stock wishbone, where the shock goes into, is too big and won't safely secure the shock. do i have to get an integra wishbone and can it fit my stock civic lower arm or should i just sell the shocks?

another note...the set i bought was for all four, will all four shocks (90-93 integra) fit my 96 civic? any mods needed?

thanks for your help

I don't understand why you went with the Integra shocks... Just because they could fit? Hey! So would Tokico Blues for... a 96 Civic!!!

I don't understand why you would buy brand new shocks for a different car, without first doing the research on what would fit? Sell them and get the right stuff. Save yourself the hassle next time and research before you buy.
