Default 95 accord harness on a 96 accord?

Here's the deal...I've been looking for a harness for about 4-5 months now, I finally found one for 70 shipped, so I was stoaked. I got it today and it's for a 94-95 EX accord...and I have a 96 LX accord, someone on here told me a while back that it isn't hard to make it work...is this true and if so does anyone know what I have to do...seems like a lot of wires are the same, just different clips...thanks everyone.

Ex is Vtec, Lx is non-Vtec. So there will be extra wires for your non-Vetec car. 94-95 is OB1, and 96-97 is OBD 2 I believe, so the plugs to ECU are different. Correct my anybody?

Use MSD ignition box will convert it to external.

I think you could get just a aftermarket external coil. You could run with stock ignition system. MSD Blaster 2 Coil $30. Make sure get the version that use with stock ignition system, not MSD box.
