Yes they fit, but not the same fitment.
The front shocks are wider, that go in the fork - so you need EG/EK/DC front forks. The rear shocks are a bit smaller, and you need to trim the bush in the LCA for it to fit over.

EG rear's are better fitment iirc.

Most EK9 coilovers are also longer, so that mean you won't be able to lower the EF as much on them.

They wont fit, the width of the fork that goes on the rear LCA is too wide so only EK LCA's will work, unless you put loads of washers in it which I wont recommend.

You cant put EK LCA's on either as they are longer and you will have some crazy camber on the rear wheels.
