Default Spark Plug Wire Help

My 90 CRX Si has a DOHC ZC swap and I went and got some new wires for it but they do not fit. The peice that connects to the top of the spak plug is too long, so my question is, does anyone know what model I have to plug wires for?

88-89 Integra spark plug wires are the correct ones - sounds like you have B-series wires on it

88-89 integra are the right ones. They probably gave you the wrong ones at the store.

No dude I work at the store and the ones I bought came up on the computer. Maybe our computer system is out to lunch. I'll try somewhere else.

Many parts store part numbers are often wrong......there are so many numbers and so many parts, they are often transposed and / or confused......especially older stuff.........
A good parts guy will look beyond the numbers in the book, and listen to what the customer needs, because the customer usually knows what part he needs better than the counter guy because the customer has worked with (or seen) the part.......
