I wouldn't use a smaller bolt because of play/slack issues. I would instead try and bore out or ream the hole in the LCA.

yes, those endlinks screws are made for he blox lcas, the endlink mounting area on those is just a hole. the skunk2 lcas are threaded for he oem endlink screw, you probably already know all this i just explained. but head to your local acura dealership and have the parts department look up rear swaybar endlink screws for the integra, because no civic was equiped with a rear swaybar.

Actually, there were many Civics equipped with a factory rear sway bar over the years.

the correct way to mount those end links is to put a C or U bracket on to the LCA and attach the endlink to that. This allows both spherical ends to be in the same plane and greatly reduce any chance of binding.
