Thanks.. My car has had the dash harness replaced but I don't know if the harness is a hf harness or si harness. I read on a different post there was a difference in the igniter wire between these two harnesses, and I want to make sure I get the right one.

look for the vin # on the dash (driver side) or between the door jams or on the T bar under the hood.

Si and Hf have the same wiring harness.

Si's come with mag's, rear wiper, black seats/interior, front and rear sway bars ect

yea right, hook up a HF harness to your SI and Gaurantee no start, theres like 5 diff wires so if you hook either si into hf or vice versas it WILL not start. I had a no spark prob for 2 weeks, turned out this was the problem

I thought they were the same too, but I read this thread https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1913485 and it was telling me differently...
