i just bought a set of Eibach Prokit's for my 96 2.5TL. i ordered them from NOPI and they said that they fit my car. but when i took them to the suspension shop they said that they didn't fit. the packing list said that they are for a 94-97 Accord Wagon. now i know that the Accord and the TL have some interchangeable parts but is this right??? i was wondering if anyone else has had problems with the Eibach Prokit's on a 1st Gen TL???

 

I just got my Eibachs done the other day. He said that the CL and the Accord have very similar suspension.

 

NOPI ???

 

Yeah NOPI?. Why didn't you just order them from the site. I ordered my sportline kit from Tim and havae not had any problems.......

 

the only reason that i ordered them from NOPI was b/c they were cheaper and they get here faster than if i ordered them from Tim. i ordered my foglights and it took forever. NOPI is based in Ga and that's where i live so it only takes a day to get here. my question still wasn't answered though.

 

here is the correct Eibach Prokit part# for your 96 2.5 TL, 4011.140
Hope that helps

 

NOPI is based in Ga and that's where i live

I dont know Tim is based in FL that a pretty lame excuse.
but you get what you pay cheaper deals are not always better deals

just my .02 cents

thanks a lot for the part number Snook but that is the same one that is on my packing list. so what do u think the problem is?? personally i think that the mechanics didn't know what the hell they were doing.

Yeah good call. Find another shop that has mechanics that know what they are doing.

 

I would find another shop if i were you.

Remember the lesson in all this... Order from Tim and will know for sure the part is right and that the shop is wrong!!

thanks for the opinions. i got them put in last night and they fit fine. the shop didn't know what they were doing. so i took them to another guy and we went to his house and he put them in in about 2 1/2 hours. they look good and there is definitely a big improvement in handling.
