Thanks for all the responses.
yea. the chilton manual may be wrong in my case.

I have a 92' civic. I believe that year, the 4 door model i have is the newer body style. the other 92's have the older body style.

just to clear up the confusion. I have the 93 body style.

2dr, 4dr and hatchback have all the same body style for the 93 model year.
