what i did was repin one of the clips on the dash harness of the 91.. there were 4 wires left over and if you look on the hazard switch thats wired directly to the fuse box there are the same 4 wires so i assume you connect those but on the hazard switch there are 2 extra wires a yellow and a green with a blue stripe anyone know what there for?

If you don't know, don't reply, too many people are ******* up easy stuff because of false info that's out there.

Here's a pic with each of the plugs on both the 88-89 and the 90-91. I've used this a couple of times and it works. The plugs are very easy to depin with a small screwdriver.

It's not mine, I got it on here a long time ago. I condensed all four pics and saved it because images tend to disappear. If anyone needs it in the future PM me, my webspace at school will disappear soon as I graduated recently.

are all the Ef's the same in color codes for those 2 plugs? I mean the hatchback, 4 door, wagon and CRX? If so then i made a chart as to what plugs go where if your going from a 88-89 cluster to a 90-91.
