The mounting points are identical, however the 1995-1997 Accents used a smaller diameter strut and different springs (shaped differently). If you replace the entire assembly, the complete strut, spring, and upper strut mount from any 98-05 Accent will bolt-in. So yes, coilovers from your 03 should bolt into your 96 with no issues.
thanks for the info! i found a 96 accent for sale today for $400 i thought it would be fun for an autox project , but it turned out to be an auto. oh well, i'll keep looking.
