i don't think they fit because if they do seller wouldn put description like "92-00 civic" instead of 92-95 and 96-00.

true; anyone done an install like this? How much modification is needed?

Also how about integra mirrors; they look similar but then so do all of em

$60... Spoon replica's. Have the same look-ish to EK style mirrors for your EG.

You have to re drill the mounting holes to fit the ek mirrors.

Stock EK Mirrors are really big. I think they may not even come close to fitting with out some real work.

Sounds like it may be an easy install with a dremel; but then i have manual mirrors so lining up the adjustmest rod might be a pain. Anyone have actual experience with this intall?

these ones are pretty nice though:



Thanks for the replies

True, but the same method can be applied to the opposite, it was a good write up by the way

see this box, think out side of it. if one fit, why not vice versa? he might need to drill extra holes if he uses power mirrors on a manual car. point is, 92-95 mirrors will work on 96-00 civics. or for you, 96-00 mirrors will work on 92-95 civics.

Chill ladies...I see alot of threads where people reply answers without reading the thread carefully. So when I said that, I was under the impression that you thought he needed EG mirrors on an EK.

...also I can't help but notice how huge EK mirrors will look on an EG. I can't imagine this looking good.

yeah its fairly simple to do I have a template for redrilling holes. shoot me a pm if you need it.
you are left with a tiny gap at the top of the mirror though.

i am working on a set of type R mirrors but the tip of the section that bolts to the door on the Integra mirrors comes to a point while the civic mirrors are rounded. there is still plenty of material so that i think i can radius the point to match the contour of the civic fender...too cold for that right now
