!!!!!!!
seems like the entire engine bay harness is built into the ecu harness. not sure what the harness came from, got it from someone else who pulled it from the yard.
there has got to be a more simplified way!
look how huge the harness is!

and i have no clue where that second quick disconnect goes

what should i do about the headlight harness? should i seperate it out? looks like ALOT of work...
is there an obd2 engine harness i can get from any car with JUST the engine harness?

I used the mk3 lighting harness and all. Been years since I did it, but if you get stuck I could try and trace back through some of what I did. I did the swap a couple times without much trouble and I'm not a big wiring guy

I did mine in my 86 about 4 years ago, even with the cutting and splicing it was suprisingly easy. I made the engine harness fit my ce1 car and didnt mess with the headlamp stuff, left it mk2. if you can install a stereo with amps and crosssovers you can do this swap.
