You need 90-93 Integra hood release cable. I'm pretty sure of it.

I mention integra...oh no honda parts will work on an integra....(when i was talking to them on the phone)...so i went there and proved that bastard wrong...we have a 00 accord hood release....just have to make a minor little adjustment on it....nothing major...

the itr hood release should be relocated to your passenger side of the car and be ran from the right side thats it do that dont need a new cable ... hope thats helps and you should get another hood look and hide it some where else cause some times people relocate the cable wrong and the hood pops up when driving

Yeah i know the DA works but i can get a 98-01 accord today for $15 versus a 90-93 teg that i have to order from the dealer and it will be a few days for $30. The 98-01 accord is the better option for me here if it will work.
