5th gen sedans (well, EX and I believe the LX too) had a rear swaybar already on them from the factory. If yours doesn't have one, it's just a matter of getting the lower control arms, swaybar and the other little parts you need. I know this because I'm putting a rear swaybar on my coupe and there's 3 sources for the LCAs: 93-96 del Sol Si, 94-01 Integra, 92-95 Civic 4-dr. EX.

The 5th gen US 4door EX had a OEM rear sway bar, the CDN specs didn't. Mine doesn't have one.

Damn differences in model names between US and Canadian cars So does anyone know if the CDN EX sedans even had the endlink attachment points on the rear LCAs or was it limited to the EX-V?

Say I have a 93 HB. (does not have sway in rear).
1. What is needed so I can have it?
2. What cars did it come on, that would be a direct fit for my HB?
3. Same qestion for the front as well.

According to Honda the controll arms are different b/c the EX-V had ABS. The HB did not come w/ sway bars not even the Si models. The bar should fit w/ minor modification on sedans and hatches.

The most common source for this operation is 94-01 Integras. I would say that's your best bet for getting the LCAs. And if you find a place that has some available, let me know! Plazek Auto Recyclers weren't able to source any for me.
