Default Rear Swaybar for 96-00 DX Hatch

I've decided that it's time to downsize the aftermarket 22mm rear swaybar. Anyone know what stock sized (~13mm) rear swaybar will fit a 6th Gen Hatchback?
Thanks!

EM1? I'm not familiar with that designation. What is that? Thanks.

From the scraps of information that I've sifted through, all roads seem to be pointing to the 1999-2000 Si. I couldn't find anything local, but it looks like http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com has the bar and the rest of the "parts" for just over $100.

You can use the 99-00 Civic Si rear swaybar, it is a perfect fit! I am using that in my 98 Civic hatchback and it is perfect.

According to http://www.hondaautomotiveparts the 2000 Si rear bar 13mm.

Thanks for the help!

Actually, the Progress 22mm bar that I had was a lot of fun on smooth roads. However, here in Pittsburgh there are too many terrible road surfaces (brick, potholes, train tracks, or worse) for that kind of setup on a daily driver vehicle. I found that tiptoeing around got tiresome. From what I'm hearing, the 13mm bar will be a good functional compromise.

I've also used the 99-00 Civic Si bar on my 99, and it worked flawlessly. Good luck.
