Default Push button map lights in 96-00 Civic?

I saw a picture of a Civic with push button map lights instead of a single switch like my 99 Si has.. what car does the push button map lights come from? And is it an easy install? It'd be nice to have the left or right side lighting on occasion!

I wouldn't have posted if there was a thread on it, I found a bunch of OTHER threads adding a regular switch type maplight to a non-fitted maplight EK (like DX Hatches).

The push-button maplight im referring to is this one:

It is from an Integra. I installed one in my old EG hatch. Really easy. If you have a switched maplight, I believe you can just unbolt that one and install the button one.

Yeah like that.. I just need to know if these types are the same dimensions as the 98+ EK Civic map lights.

Pretty sure they're identical dimensions. Same same save for the switch, basically. Should be $10 at the yard.
