Default ASR brace install problem

Okay I just received my ASR brace in the mail today. Was looking everywhere for instructions on installing this thing on my 93 civic hatch. The only instructions I can find are off of ASR's website, which are for 96-00 civics. Well, I read over the instructions just to make sure I had everything and was just going to figure it out on my own. The only parts that were sent for my bar were the two subframe adaptor pieces, two long shouldered bolts, two short fully threaded bolts, and four medium lengthed shouldered bolts. In the instructions for the 96-00 model, it said a backing plate was needed (and included).
Can anybody provide me with some instructions for this on an EG or at least some help. I bought this thing to keep my subframe from getting messed up. Haha, I don't want to end up messing it up by installing it the wrong way.
TIA

I was unaware that they made a kit for 92-95. Did you try calling them to ask them how to do it/

Call them up and tell them you need the plates.

I pretty much got everything from Kteller except the two long LCA bolts. I emailed Charleston from ASR and he sent me a hardware kit free of charge. If you are missing pieces, email Charleston.

or go to ur local hardware store, quicker, if you know what you need (do it all the time for bolts I need) - but never-the-less, free is better I Guess....(saving the 40 cents...)

Also, I'm pretty sure the sway bar setup is the same for both (92-95, and 96-99)..I could very well be wrong though, I just don't believe they changed anything there...

That is a beautiful picture. Would love to be able to do that to my daily driver even if it only hit the autox twice a year.

Tried this already. They don't carry metric bolts for grade 8 bolts.

actually, metric bolts are not rated as "grade 8". they are rated 10.9, which is the equivilant.
try a ACE hardware store. i have one by me, and they are well stocked with just about everything.

Well, they didn't have any metric bolts in 10x1.25. My friend ended up giving me his when he got a tie bar for his car that he took off. I went to like 4 stores (incl. Home Depot and Ace) in my town, they all sucked.
