Default EF8 cabin harness to Engine harness. Looking for guidence !

ok well i am kinda stuck at this point. my harness from the cabin is coming to meet my engine harness and the plugs are different. now i am using a si harness usdm, the car is a ef8 of coarse. i am also using a frog harness from obd0 to obd1 running a p30. i know i need to re pin the harness also eliminate some of the wires possably and get the right plug and match them up does any of you know which wires are supposed to go where?


this is the ef8 cabin harness plug





this is where it goes to my si harness that i have been using in all my rex's






Also i have no friggen clue what these wires are for, i am assuming some should be for my electronic vss since i have the ef8 cluster and trying to run that. any clue at all?


these wires are coming from where the break booster should be on a usdm rex.

The car is a right hand drive j-spec ef8 crx for the cabin harness , the harness is a usdm si harness. Now this plug is not where the fuse box is in the engine bay . It is on the right side of the engine bay coming from the fire wall.
