I found a good deal on some Tokico blues but they are for 2003-2005 and I Have a 2002. I called Tokico and they said there is no way for them to fit...but I find that hard to believe.

Is anyone with a 2002 running the 2003-2005 blues? Did you have to modify them for proper fitment?

 

According to a thread in the FAQ, Honda used the RSX design on 03+ Civics.

I had read that, but doesn't address the specific ep3 differences within Tokico. I need to know what the difference is within their product. I called, but didn't get any answers. If someone with an 02 is running the 03-05, I'd like to know if it was a straight forward swap or was modification necessary.

What I'm not sure about is weather I need to drill out the front knuckle bolt
from 14mm to 16mm. I currently have Raceland coilovers, they were packaged as 2003-2005 and fit without issue.
