I think your best option would be to visit the largest junk yard in your
area and get one off of a wrecked Accord. Some junk yards are on some sort
of network where they are linked with thousands of other junk yards. If
they don't have a wrecked 93 Accord--they can get the part for you from
another junk yard on their network. They may also give you free advice on
how to install it.
