Hi kals5756,

Accord and Civic are 2 different models and the controls are NOT interchangeable.

Buy on the website the control arms are for Honda/Acura then it says Civic/Integra..... So are you positive it won't fit on an accord... Not that I don't believe you... I just want to besure... And if so... Do you know anywhere where I can get an aftermarket upper control arms for my accord... But I'm looking for expensive ones !!!! Good quality

Not interchangeable means Accord control arms cannot be used for Civic and vice Versa.

Sorry I am not able to assist on aftermarket parts.
