So Im wiring up my car right now using a 89 door mounted interior harness on my 88 pillar. The seat belt lights will not go out cause from what i understand there are sensors on the seatbelt in the door that i no longer use, how can i fool the car into thinking the belts are fine? I might just have to go out and experiment.

I just cut mine off. Does the wiring in the door belts have to do with the light? I thought the light had to do with the wires under the seat?

Thats what i thought, but i connected seat belts and and went through some back probing, but the light and beeper go off 100% of the time. Its starting to really bug me, ha. I just cut the door wires too.

there should only be 2 wires that go to the door mounted seat belts. the other two go to the door latch correct. try crossing them?

Pull the cluster bulb out, and the beeping noise should be coming from a relay somewhere. Probably the fusebox. Or you can unplug the small plug from the back of your cluster. That's for the belts

I know this has been discussed before, but I need some feedback from someone who has used the suja 1 hydro pedal conversion kit.

https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/sonem-ef-bolt-hydraulic-clutch-conversion-2472947/


I plan to use a hydro trans and totally eliminate the stock rhd clutch cable, which is untuckable and highly ugly.

vtecnician... go check my build thread (last couple of pages) for a homemade version of that mount. Clipsed mocked it up and the only complaint I had was the thickness of the material he used, it flexed alot under hydraulic pressure. It also blocks the path of the vent tubes so they are useless opposite the steering wheel.

Anyway, if you have any questions, just ask.
