Default EG6 Transmission swap q's?

Need some help here guys been doing research all day, hopefully some of you guys have this knowledge that seems to be lost somewhere on the Internet haha. So I managed to buy an automatic right hand drive civic. It's a 1992 hatch with a jdm b16A. Having some issues finding the right parts. I got my pedals and my master cylinder but I'm wondering about the throttle cable, I can't find a right hand drive cable anywheres. What throttle cable will I need? And the eg auto to manual conversion mount, will that work on my b series? Thanks guys!!

Right hand drive manual throttle cable you will probably have to source from a right hand drive market or online. The cable is really long and loops around the engine bay I believe

I have never done it, I live in the US and I am not a mail carrier, I have no reason to do this. Why would it not work if you got the proper cable ?

My bad I'm on my phone and I scrolled to the bottom of the page and it showed a different thread where someone said to use a da throttle cable so I thought that was you saying it haha. But alright cool, I'm having trouble finding one. But I read this article where a guy used a 99-00 left hand drive civic si throttle cable and it worked and routed it behind the engine instead of that long ugly cable. I'd like to do that but have only seen it done on that article so I don't wanna buy one and have everything put together and have a set back because of a stupid cable haha. If anyone can confirm that it would work that'd be great! Much easier to find and a lot better looking

Here's an article saying I can use an ek cable, can someone confirm this before I buy one? I'd rather do this.

looking at that its should work the key is to be able to route the cable without kinking or binding the cable and still reach the throttle body , and I believe the si an and a del sol DOHC vtec throttle cable should be the same or very similar. In the US the throttle cables are less than $30

Delsol DOHC vtec

1995 Honda DEL SOL COUPE|17910-SR3-L01
WIRE, THROTTLE
$33.12$25.43

99 si

1999 Honda CIVIC COUPE|17910-S04-L02
WIRE, THROTTLE (NIPPON CABLE)
$29.28$22.49
