how to rewire obd1 alternator to obd2????

hey guys, i just started completing my obd1 gsr in my ek swap and now the only problem that i am having is the alternator. i have heard that you can rewire your obd1 alternator to obd2, but when i search i cannot find any wiring diagram or instruction so any information on rewiring the obd1 alternator to obd2 would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

all of the wires matched up for me. I just cut off the plug and matched wire colors with the obd1 plug. this was for my obd1 gsr swap into my 2k civic using the stock civic harness.

I would just sell that alt. for the correct one. The alt. is a key component and if not done right be prepared to have an unreliable car

But the wire colors were similiar and confirmed they matched up with schematics. I even put the same OBD2 alternator in an OBD0 car and it worked as well..

I'm bumping this thread up from 05 because I need the same information and instead of making a new thread I'll use this one ..

I'm having this problem:

2 of the wires are okay, but the other 2 are either or .. I'm hoping since this thread is 2 years old that someone has figured this out and could give a hand
