Default '91 Si rear brakes into '88 Si = e-brake cable issues?

I have a complete rear disc swap from a '91 CRX Si and I'm going to put it on my '88 Si. My Rear Trailing Arms that came with the swap have e-brake cables hanging off of them, but I'm not sure if these will work, or if I need some intermediate cable to make it work. Here's what I found in the parts diagrams (Parking Brake Diagram is the same picture of the '88 Si vs. '91 si):



Thanks.

I used 90 CRX Si rear disc brakes and I don't remember any other cables associated with them. Just try installing them the regular way and see what happens After all they're only cables....

Cool thanks. I just jacked my car up and the cables on my drums look the exact same length as the ones hanging off my disc swap, and they have the same little square rubber grommets that go into the body. I think it should work out fine.

Only diffrence would be the ends of the cables and how they attach to the caliper.

Yeah don't use the 88 cables because they are for drums, use the 91 CRX Si cables your rear disc brakes came with.
