Any help? I'm asking for a buddy of mine. It's an acord wagon (nice ) and I have springs lying around wondering if they will work for him

I believe they'll fit (I'm going off my memory though, so this could be wrong). However, I don't recommend it unless it's solely for looks, as I'm willing to bet that unless they are some off brand that doesn't care.....they will have different spring rates than the accord ones would due to weight distribution differences and actual weight. The wagon may also sit even lower than the springs supposably lower a prelude. You could always try it....*shrug*

stock 5th gen lude springs are taller than accord springs...least they were when i lined em up side by side.
i would not use springs that were not designed for an accord in my accord.
