Default 5 Lug Conversion (Yes I saw the FAQ but its closed)

Hey guys! So one of the first big mods that I want to do to my ES2 is to go from 4 lugs to 5. My question is that on the forum that is posted in the FAQ covering this, it says that the knuckles and most of the other parts have to be off of a 2004-2005. Can someone answer for me why I cannot get the knuckles and other parts off of a 2002? The reason I ask this is because my local junk yard has a 2002 RSX (maybe type s?) and all four corners look to be in good shape. If I get those parts, will it bolt onto my 2005 civic? Thanks! Also, has anyone been able to successfully hook up ABS that did the lug conversion?

Thanks in advance!!

The '04-'05 portion is referring exclusively to the Civic Si chassis, as they were 4-lug in 02-03 (not all of 2003, but that's for another post).

Its been years since I had ABS, but I believe that you can either reuse your stock sensor or use the sensor that comes with the new hubs, without incident.

Okay, thanks Toyomatt84! Probably gonna wait a little long on it cause I may end up just doing a rear disc brake swap. That way I can keep the 4x100 lug pattern and not have to pay for more rims. haha Thanks again!
