Problem with Tanabe tower...

Hey guys, I ordered a Tanabe Sustec strut bar for my car. A 2004 Honda Civic EX coupe MT. From what i see on Tanabe's site now, it only fits AT's. Does anybody know if it will fit? I don't know what would be the difference.

I tried searching to see if i could find an answer but didn't find it. No need to yell that i didn't look guys, just need some help. Thanks.

i have that bar and the only thing in the way was the intake and brake fluid bottle. so what i did is just cut the intake shorter and bent the brake fluid bottle at an angel and everything fit fine. p/m if more questions!
