will a 98 integra short shifter fit a 99 civic sohc?

[prototype80]

hi,
ok here's the deal. i bought a short shifter for my 99 civic ex 5 speed d16y8, the thing is it says it is for a 96-98 integra. i dont know if it is for a gsr, ls or what but its kinda got me worried cause i have no clue as to if it fits my car or if the jackass sold me something ill never get to use. i have had it over a year so returning it isnt an option anymore i guess. my question is will it fit and are there any picture instructions as to how to istall it. it is a bit longer than my stock shifter (compared it to my 96 ex's stock shifter) and i worry that i also will have to have my exhaust lowered 3/4" to get it to fit without hitting the exhaust piping. it is a toucan make as far as i can tell, my lazy ass didnt ask for the packaging just the product. well anywho thanks for your concern and keep me posted.

It'll fit. I'm not sure if its gonna hit the exhaust but if it does you gonna have to adjust exhaust piping.
