Default DASH HARNESS HELP!!

Hey guys I have a question, I have a 95 integra gsr and I have a short in the dash wiring harness. I was wondering if i can use a harness out of a 96-01 integra. The part numbers are different 94-95 same part number but 96-01 different part number. Probably bc of being 0bd2 and mine being obd1. I could fix mine there is only 5 wires that are burnt but fixable. I guess I'm just wondering if anyone has used another year in there car?

If the part numbers are diff. then most likely it is more work to mod the 96-01 harness then to repair your harness.

Why not hit up your local bone yards, [PicknPull] and see if you can find a good harness out of a 95-95? 94

I mean I could try but I might just be better off fixing mine with some soldering and shrink wrapping it

It would definatly be cheaper.

Kind of depends on how much damage there is, how far "back" into the harness it goes.

What part of the harness is damaged, got pix? 94

I dont know if its this simple, but can you use a 96+ cluster like you are saying and just buy an ob2 ---> obd1 (thats what you currently have right?) jumper harness and just swap the new harness and jumper in and call it a day?

A lot of work, but its just an idea. I also have a complete 96 car harness sitting around if you wanted to work out a deal. I crashed back in May and tore the entire car down to bare chassis. When I swapped over to a new shell I didnt need it since im on an obd1 ecu w/hondata.... new shell (94 gsr) just plugged right into my ecu since its obd1 so I have no use for the harness out of the 96.

Thanks for the offer but I think that would cost me more money then buy a new harness. Acura doesnt have the harness available anymore and I found a couple used for 150 bucks. I decided to just fix mine with some solder and shrink wrap. It was only five wires that were melted together.
