why would you want to do that. if you have an engine harness thats obd1 you would have to have a cabin harness that is obd1. so basically you'd be swapping the entire dash from the obd1 vehicle that your getting the engine harness from in order for that to work.

you dont switch harnesses you convert your existing one.

you dont really need the obd1 injectors for the conversion either. what you do need is the ecu, the jumper harness, 4 wire o2 sensor, and dist.

You are complete OBD1 right now.
What you want is complete OEM and it's not worth it to most people.
You need to pull your entire interior harness and put in the OBD1 one.

Now, if you are still interested in staying 100% OEM then you will have to swap out everything in your stock dash to the OBD1 harness donor dash. Either mod every component the harness plugs into your dash or mod the dash to fit your car (ugly).
Theeeennn... you might have to cut into the harness anyway to get it to fit your tail lights and dome light and whatever else.

There is no staying OEM through any of this - something gets modded to fit your chassis.

but see the thing is you are asking for a hell of a lot of trouble by trying to do that. as i said you would have to have an obd1 cabin harness if you intended on using an obd1 engine harness. which means you would have to take out your crx dash and install an obd1 dash, because an obd1 dash harness will not connect up to your crx dash. so if you want to try swapping an 92-95 civic or integra complete dash in your car then have at it. otherwise this isn't going to work.

ninja edit: or do what 4drEf said, which means tons of cutting and splicing. good luck ever getting that working 100% correctly. and it wouldn't be oem at all like he said.
