Default Install an internal coil distributor on an accord that was using an external coil?

A customer leave me his honda accord 94 2.2l with a faulty distributor, he choose to buy one from from richporter technology since it cost less than my parts dealer.

His car has a TEC distributor but with an external coil, I know that you have two different brand of distributor for this model but didn't know that they have two TEC model too. So he order a TEC distributor but with an internal coil....
I don't have the wiring from the two models for now, can I just modify the wiring to use the new distributor or use the new distibutor with the old coil ?
If someone have the two wirings diagrams it would help me too.

Link to richporter : http://www.richporter.ca/oemproducts.html

92-95 2156cc with TEC Distributor TD-52U & TD-59U (External Coil) TD52
94-95 2156cc with TEC Distributor TD-31U, TD-34U & TD-58U TD31
94-95 2200cc with Hitachi Distributor D4T92-04 w/Two Plugs HT01
94-95 2200cc with Hitachi Distributor D4T92-04 w/One Plug

He order TD31 distributor, Richporter customer service didn't respond to my email.

Sounds like your customer got a Prelude Dizzy....because if im not mistaken the Accord dizzy's dont have internal coils those years....at least with my f22 dizzy no internal coil....my h22a had an internal coil in the dizzy when I recieved it and after having going thru 2 in 7 months i decided to run the accord dizzy with an external coil....MSD Blaster to be exact....no problems since so my question is why did he order an internal coil dizzy?

now with the Vtec f22b's im not sure on the coil issue....possibly might have a internal coil....

He should be running your parts anyways....IMO

uhh... you sure?

I know the F22B1 is an internal coil but I'm almost positive that the F22B2 in an external coil.

edit:
I double checked in the manual... the coil test for the F22B1 shows an internal coil and the coil test for a F22B2 shows an external coil.

Finally, it was easy, just have to remove the stock external coil and to plug the black/yel wire to the yellow wire (on the extrenal coil plug). I guess you have to do that too when you swap and H22.
