Can I use an integras SRS reel for a 96 ex coupe? or do I need to use the civic one?

 

they appear to be the same:

96 EX:


99GSR:


what year Teg would you be using it out of?

95 teg?

 

95 looks to be slightly different:


notice it has one main plug instead of two,and looks to mount slightly differently.
it looks identical to the one used in the EG chassis.
i looked it up and it appears that it switched to the EK style in 96 with the change to OBDII.i'm sure the 95 probably has the same wiring configuration,and you could just adapt the plug to work,but i don't know if you'll actually be able to mount it correctly due to the mounting tabs being different....bottom line-you're messing with the SRS stuff,so i'd get the right part from a 96+ DC/EK and not take any chances.

i put a 96 accord srs reel in a 97 civic. the plugs and everything were the same, but the arrow that shows 'up' was at an angle. worked perfectly.

 

should work

 

thanks I think I might just go for the real thing. This is something I can't really test well only once and I'd rather not find out it didn't work. Thanks for the input/advice
