anyone can help? am i in the right place?

 

bump i want to know too

 

USDM '96-'98 Civics don't have the plug.

When you order the clock from overseas, you need to ask for the pigtail too.

Oh, and the clock was available elsewhere than just Japan too.

 

got the pigtail too but i just searched and found that usdm civics dont come with the plug for the clock on its harness. guess i have to just splice it into my dash/radio harness

This is correct. Match the colors.

 

I'm 100% sure you have no plug under the dash to plug this clock. You have to cut some radio or climat control wires. Easy

 

any updates on this? is there any other way to installing this without splicing?

That's the way I did it. That way you can see it when it's light out too.

looks clean with the blockoff plate

 

So do you wire every wire on the back of the JDM clock plug? Or is there a wire you ignore?

 

all wires
One is constant 12v
One is ignition
One is for the dimmer
One is ground


Stupid photobucket...i told you to resize this pic to &lt;600

edit: researched!

but quick question...did you connect the ignition and dimmer together? because thats the only time mine lights up.

I used the stereo wiring harness as-is.
