Default 5th gen Susp in 4th?

I'm not a prelude dude but a guy I work with had bought a set of Tein SS's for his 4th gen but never noticed they were for a 5th gen. Don't ask... Any how the things are brand spanking new and I feel bad but not really since if your laying down cash like that you should know what your buying.

I have a set of TEIN Basic coilovers from a 5th Gen on my 4th gen. Yes, you will not have the brake line holders on the front shocks too.

Thanks for the replies. This guy is nice and all but kinda scares me being what he buys and not even sure of what he's actually buying. He told me he bought a Type S engine and he change the valve cover to match his car so he bought a blue one and just ricey **** like that. So I ask him what's the code on the engine and he tells me H23A4 and I'm like "your sure it's JDM? Where did you buy this from and how much did you spend?" He's like "I think it's a type S or type something. My face goes from to . You spend like 4g's on a engine and your not even sure what you got! Then he thinks he can just use the ECU and wiring harness that came with his Type S engine and I'm like it's gonna be a big PITA to go to OBD2 from what your car is right now. He's asks me what's OBD... oh god. I wanna help this guy but I feel like I'll end up doing his whole swap and he'll I've never swapped or even worked on a Prelude let alone a H series engine. Right now he's just has a F20 in there. Kinda sucks being that he's the only guy at work that I can talk cars with... well kind of.
