Default '88 or type r LCAs on '91?

So i have a brand new set of old stock Omnipower coilovers that i plan to use on my '91 hatch. The problem is, the rears are for '88 four door or CRX and i don't have the appropriate ITR-style LCAs.

My question is: do ALL '88 LCAs have provisions for a rear sway bar? If not, and i can't find a set with the holes, can I use type-r units? If so, how? I read somewhere that while similar, they aren't identical.

I have a set that I used to run on my 91 4 door with 88 CRX H&R coilovers.
I believe these were from a JDM DA.
No rubbery undercoating on them like the CRX, and lightening holes in them unlike the ITR.

PM if interested.

Only 88 si had the nut welded to thread the swaybar. I think DX ones had the holes tho, so adding a nut and welding would not be hard.

DA arms are different, it would be my last possible option.

ITR has slight difference in bushing size and width, but workable as far as I know. No personal experience with them.
