Head over to Sylvania and see of they take the same bulb type. Then with a little splicing im sure you could get it to work. I don't know that everything would be interchangable by default. It wasn't until 2001 that the EL was built on the civic platform. Up until 2000 it was based on the Japanese Honda Domani.

Yeah if your just looking to pigtail the sockets im sure it will work fine. The lighting harness isnt that complicated. Might I ask what happened? Just cant find the EL parts in the US?
