Default tein front strut tower bar?

so i called tein. they make a front strut tower bar for the dc5 but not the em2. the rear bar is the exact same part # from tein and it fits. now tein says the don't know if it will fit the em2 because of hod clearance. does anybody know if the tein front upper strut tower bar will fit the em2? the reason for posting is not because i want to know if the dc5 bar will fit. because some are different then others. im looking for the tein bar itself. anybody know?

This is a common topic on Honda-Tech. You can run DC5 strut tower bars in the front without complication. The rear tower bars you have to be careful for the clearance to the rear seat.
