if anyone has a link to this information, it would be greatly appreciated. Pictures are helpful.

 

www.hondatech.info look for the factory service manual for the 96-00 Civic. Instructions are in there, along with anything else you ever wanted to know about that Civic. It's an invaluable tool, and it's even in the ever-so-handy .pdf format.

 

thanks a whole lot for the quick reply and the reference, it is MUCH appreciated.
