Default brake swap question

i have a set of gsr brakes that i'm putting on my 93 coupe. i don't have the e brake calble for the driverside and the brake lines were cut on both disk when the were taking out. are any of these parts hard to find and/or expensive to get. i 'm in the middle of the swap so i need them fast.
also is there way i can use my existing cables and lines

you can use the parking brake cable off any 94-00 integra 3dr, or 92-00 civic coupe with rear discs

autozone has all the parts you need. the brake lines should be in stock, but i had to order my e-brake cables.

you can use stuff from 94-00 tegs or 92-00 civics with rear discs, it's all the same.

ok i ordered new brake hoses and e brake cable so that covers me there but now i have a new prob. i stripped the bolts where the shocks meet the lower control are and it seemed like it would be a pain to get the bolt out so i just bought 2 used lower control arms(wich i think i got raped on at $50 a piece). my question is could i just replace the bolts with some 14mm ones from homedepot or some other parts store. By the way if anyone wants to know why i am doing this is because i'm putting in shocks and springs at the same time as the brake swap. thanks in advance
