I'm taking everything from my busted 98 coupe and putting it into a 00 hatch shell. All of the wiring in my hatch is still intact, so I'm going to re-wire the rear coupe harness to the hatch, here are the wire's coming out of the hatch:

Red w/ Black stripe-License Plate lights
Blue w/ Black stripe-Window de-foggers
Dark Green
Light Green -Windshield Wiper Motor
Light Green w/ Black
Black-Negative/Ground for all?
Dark Green w/ White-Upper Brake Light
= 7 wires total
So, in order to rewire my coupe harness, can I cut the plugs(which each have 2 or more wires atached, except the window de-foggers) off of it and color match?, resulting in 7 negative/ground(from the coupe harness) wires spliced into one(hatch black wire), or is there another way I should do this?
Trace the wires of each component down the wiring harness until it becomes one wire coming from the dash?
Can use whatever help i can get...

2 min bump for everyone hates wiring

 

please help

 

Does anyone know, if something in the initial post doesn't make sense just ask, somebody must have done this before, 37 views-no answer.

 

why dont u just use the exisiting rear loom plugged into the new front loom your fitting?

 

Thanks, you just reminded me, the plug was cut, that was th reason for the wire descriptions^. I'm also not using the existing (i assume you mean coupe) harness because it isn't long enough. I would never be able to open the hatch.

 

Still looking for answers, the post at the top is hypothetical, I'm not about to go and butcher my harness, never done rewiring dealing with cut wires, Help please.

 

Bump, happy new year!
