Default NEW SHIFTER CABLES 2IN LONGER??? THEY DONT FIT?

yea so i found i guy selling "prelude" shifter cables for like 20 and the cables them selfs are fine but they are 2 or so inches longer than the ones that came on my h22a so they dont fit?? does any one have any idea were they would be from and could i make them fit?

Is there a difference in length with the h22 and the h23 with the wonky tranny?

Or perhaps like said earlier, maybe it's cables for an accord f22/23 motor.

if you got them for the right year it wont make a diffrence between accord and prelude for the 92-97 ludes and 94-96 accords acutally for the accords i think its up to 99 ... the jdm F22b only came it auto (or atleast EVERY one that ive ever seen and heard of was an auto) if theres any numbers on there run it over to honda have them take a look at it... does it fit the trans? does it fit on the shifter? you may just have to route them diffrently being they are cables so they flex but id have to see a picture of it to be sure... it may be from the 1gen prelude or 4gen accords

the pic above is with them both pulled all the way out on the shifter side !!!

but on the tranny side they slide in and out at the same "rate" and match up perfectly??

and when there all the way pushed in they have the same "gap"

*bottom orginal*
*top gay ones*

and there out of a 96 lude
