how to install a sway bar on an 04 vp

My honda handles decent but i would like it to handle less floaty and a little flatter. I know this has been done. Can anyone provide some guidance pics and video are appreciated greatly. Thank you all.

Unfortunatley the VP doesn't have a sway bar to begin with, so you'll have to get endlinks and a sway bar from an EX. I don't know too much about the VP, but I believe the EX endlinks should be attachable to the VP control arms. For the sway bar, you'll have to drill holes into the subframe and find a nut/bolt combination that will fit in that tight space... unless you have the right tools and knowledge to drill threaded holes in the bottom of your car, lol

I believe Progress suspension makes a mounting kit that facilitates the install and gives you a bit more adjustability than sotck brackets. Grey did a DIY on this which you may find to be helpful:

You will most likely need the Progress end link adapter kit. If it didn't come with a sway then you may not have the end link mounting points on the rear trailing arms. You can buy new arms also from a junk yard.

The Progress adapter kit is nice, I had to use it on my 01 since it didn't have a sway either.
