I was woundering if I could put a 99 EK door on my 99 EX coupe civic? Do they fit right? is it interchangable and direct fit?

 

EK is a term that loosely refers to 96-00 civics. its not a submodel like ex. ur car is an ek and an ex.

If you want to know if hatch and coupe doors are interchangeable, yes, they are.

Well, let's clear that up too. No US Civic is an EK. None.

EK is a term that actually denotes hatches and sedans overseas. You've probably heard of the EK4 and EK9 in particular.

Some people incorrectly think that EK4s were only '96-'98 hatches. They were available for '96-'00 and came as sedans too. EK4s came stock with a B16A. They were never available here though.

The EK9 is a Civic Type R and was only available in Japan. The ones in Europe were shipped there afterwards. They were only hatches.

Here in the US a lot of people think that an EK is any 6th gen Civic. Some others might say it only means a hatch. As I explained, they're both wrong. It is a common term used (incorrectly) to refer to any '96-'00 Civic though. I prefer to just call them 6th gens or 6Gs. At least then I'm not spreading misinformation.

What the OP has is a USDM Civic EX coupe with a D16Y8 (at least stock). It's an EJ8 whether it's a coupe or sedan.

All US 6th gen Civics were EJs, EMs (Si coupe) or ENs (GX sedan).
