Default Brake cable for rear disc conversion Sedan

I performed the rear disc brake swap on my EF sedan. I got them from a 96 Integra. Ordered brake line for a CRX Si. My question is what car do I get the E-brake cable from?

Wrong.

Only 90-91 CRX Si's had rear disc. Hatches and 4 door's only had drum brakes.

For ebrake cables I would look at 4 dr Integra cables

I have done the rear brake swap more then id like to say on the 88-91 EF chassis

Always used 90-93 Integra E-brake cables however I had to shorten them every single time to. Used an Ace Barralel clamp.

Now that I realized lately you can get the 90-91 Crx SI cables from Schucks or Napa for $36 each Beckly Arnold I think is close to the name I am thinking of lol...

However not sure if the 4 door EF cables are naturally longer the EF hatch and EF crx...
