I bought this Alternator Repair Harness from Ebay. It should fit my Honda.
However, should i simply cut all 4 wires in the honda, remove the old green connector and do a "pigtail" connection?
However, if i pigtail then which wire should pair with which?
as you can see from the pictures the Honda has white and colored strips while the ebay connector has solid Red, Blue, Black and White connections.
any help would be great thank you! ebay repair cable

I would replace the good pins from the green factory plug with the same position wires in the new Ebay plug... leaving the one damaged wire that you pulled out and connect the new plug wire to the original white/blue wire. This reduces the possibility of problems later since you haven't cut more wires than needed.
