About this How-To:
    If you own a 6th generation Civic that isn't a 99-00 Si, then you were robbed a rear sway bar. Installing the Honda OEM Civic Si rear sway bar (correct term is anti-roll bar but sway bar is easier :) ) is a simple and inexpensive way to upgrade the handling of your car.  
 
Tools Needed:

Socket Wrench
Sockets from 8mm-22mm (not all are needed, but you should have them all available)
Wrenches from 8mm-22mm (not all are needed, but you should have them all available)
Allen wrench set
Jack stands

 

 
Parts Needed:
99-00 Civic Si rear sway bar with hardware and end links
 
Notes:

N/A

 

This is a pic of all the parts needed. Not a whole lot of parts on this one.

Start off by putting the rear of the car up on jack stands. In these pics, you can see the mounting points of the bar.

Put the bar into position so that the bolts on the end links are going through the mounting holes as shown.

Install the nuts on the end links. IF the bolts start turning, use an Allen wrench on the end of the bolt and use an open end wrench to tighten.

Finally, install the remaining four mounting bolts in the locations shown. Make sure all bolts are tight. Lower car and take for a test drive.
