JDM Front end conversion: Which hood latch cable to use?
Ok we have a usdm teg about to get the JDM front end conversion.
Which hood latch/hoodlatch cable do we need to get?
DA integra... I think someone said?
Also, the turn signals only liminate when you turn on the blinker right**
Sorry..1st timer, help would be great!

Green/Yellow wire and 1 blk wire.
The Red wire is not used if you want it the way your describing.That is its constant power (on @ the switch) or whatever.
I believe thats right.
I'm a little fuzzy on my wire memory.Its been 6 mths since I did mine.

get the hood latch for the DA as well.. trust me.. if you dont.. you'll run and and get one after the first time you open your hood.. you have to jiggle the latch and its just ghetto..
and yes.. the signals (and side markers) only come on when you turn your signals on

I used the usdm latch and have no shaking. I perfer the usdm because It puts the cable on the other side of the latch to help make it harderfor theives to open the hood and the cable is ran inside the engine bay so the stock hood cable works

I was led to believe that the DA cable would work so I ordered one from Acura and low and behold it was no where near the right length, only an inch or so longer than the DC one. I don't know how you guys are getting them to work? Does anyone have any pics? I used my factory latch and lucked out getting a JDM GSR cable from a friend and it fit perfect!
ah i guess what i tell you guys you dont believe, i told jeff he needed to use a da hood cable
oh well i guess i dont know anything

just curious if any one knows how to hook up all the lights or where a website is i can look up this diagram. also where i could get the cheapest jdm radiator support youve seen. thanks
Contact Mike @ IPS.
He makes the Headlight Harness (if yours didn't come w/ them already) w/ 6" of lead wire for you to just Splice and plug em right in.
It makes it so much eaiser and cleaner install.
Wiring diagrams for the lights are ALL OVER THE PLACE on H-T.

If you ran it just like the Stock cable.It should've been PERFECT.
No need in teh JDMness.But Stock latch Sux..harder to open hood w/ it.
Its long enough to actually Circle around the Latch (underneath the top of the Rad support Bar) to "go in" on the oppsite side that the DC cable does.
Mine you can't even see and I even used the stock White clamps(ones that didn't break while removing)
to stick it back to the rad support.
oh well though

I ended up using the DA integra cable and hood latch, but had a problem with the hood release handle (inside the car) not releasing the hood latch dfue to the cable being too long. Not sure if this was a problem only on the 98+, I don't see why it would be, but I modified the stock release handle to pop the latch just right. So, don't slam your hood shut until your positive the release mechanism works right!
whatsupp guys bringing a thread from the dead i know. but i have an ITR JDM front end on my DC4. i put a DA hoodlatch and da release cable? seems like there isnt enough tension in the cable to release the latch. the plastic parts are in place. maybe wd40 all over the latch? i got the latch from ebay lolz
