93 Civic DX to 95 Civic EX COMPLETE conversion. HELP NEEDED!
Quite a bit of reading but don't shy away!!!
Alright well my project is a 93 DX and well let's just say that the interior sucked major *****. It was half tan, half spraypainted white. The ignition module was broke and everything in the car was rigged more than I can even explain. Anyway I picked up 2 95 EXs for parts specifically for this car. I want to do it legit and replace every wire behind the dash and power options and so forth and not rig anything but I have a few questions...
1. The airbag system... Mine being a 93 DX only had 1 airbag and I am converting to a dual system. The airbag control unit from my 93 DX is labled F and I am pretty sure it wont work for obvious reasons. The unit is labled "F" and there are a set of wires that go toward the firewall and I cannot follow them further than that. Where do these go to and what are they for because neither the 95 EX "G" modules have these wires. One of the EXs was triggering the SRS light and the other had it's bags deployed. Is the SRS module still good after the bags deploy? Which one would be better to use?
2. Wiring... So I am just going to replace all the wires behind the dash from a 95 EX to the 93 DX for many reasons. The main one being the 93 DX is hacked together and wires are falling apart and the 95 has a viper car alarm soldered in legitly. Here's my question... The clips that plug into the firewall are different between the cars (not shape but number of wires). What are all the extra wires for in the EX harness and what would be my best bet for swapping all of this into the DX?
Ok, now post away!
