2 door Shocks/Struts and springs on a 4 door civic?

I found a set of shocks/struts with springs mounted on them but they came off of a 2001 civic ex 2 door. I have a 2002 civic lx 4 door. Is there any reason to think these would not work for me. I am sorry for the poor typing I blame it mostly on the beer consumption! Please let me know if you have any knowledge in this area!

weight distribution is different between the 2 door, and 4 door, not by much... but still the springrates might be different, but i doubt it.. try it.. they physically fit

You need to find out what springs. The shocks will definitely fit, but the springs may make the *** end sag.
