The rhd harness will not work on the lhd car,all the plugs will be on the wrong side.Just use the harness from the lhd car and do it like anyother jdm motor swap into a usdm car.

lol, first off, the plugs dont match in this case (b16a harness on a usdm crx), second, you will have to extend tons of sensors to reach (thats if the shock tower plugs even fit)

oh ok i see what you are saying. well im using the JDM engine harness on my swap.... but i am also using the JDM dash harness and underdash harness too and yes i did have to extend wire on the underdash harness(pretty much remade the whole harness)and it was a PITA but it was worth it also.

Good job, you know what you are doing, and I respect that... For normal folk, it becomes a nightmare!

I had to rewire about half of my underdash. And I know I'll have to do more. I keep blowing fuses with my turn signals...I had to pull the relay to keep my cluster. Only wires I don't touch are the column ones, and now they are fucked! Stupid Civic!

It will work. Just take the topside of the harness and fold it frontwards then the middle side and rotate it topwards.

WOW WOW WOW!!! So I take the middle of the top side and turn it frontwards to make the topside rotate vertically?

Ah ****....that sounds complicated...I'll just wire in the proper wires in my LHD one!

First of all you CANNOT plug in a rhd or obd1 harness to your car an expect it to run. You need a factory harness that matches your body of the car, or a modified or built harness, for your needs
