Default EF B16A swap help ASAP

A customer brought his '91 Civic hatchback into our shop with a JDM B16A swap. He bought the car and whoever did the "swap" did a complete hack job on the wiring harness (they cut the ends where the '91 harness plugs into the ecu and used crimp/barrel connectors to hold the plug to the wires).

We're going to get the customer to buy his own wiring harness and ECU (we scanned it and it gave an "Internal Fault" code)...and we'll install everything.


Will these work properly?

ECU

Wiring Harness

Now, the question that we have...in my '94 Civic to '94 GSR swap, the wiring harness is used to connect EVERYTHING (headlamps, etc.)...is that the case with this? Will everything have to be swapped over AND WILL everything swap over?

Any help is appreciated...this is the first EF swap we've EVER had come into our shop.

I read that it was easier to add on all the accessories (headlights, etc.) then to add on the engine wiring.
