    there is a black/green stiped wire and a yellow one in the center consel. the yellow one goes to the male plug on the rev. sencer on the tranny and the black/green stip goes to the female plug on the rev. sencer on the tranny. all i used was some 16g speaker wire i had to hook it up.

    which is the mail plug and whihc is the female plug? i got confused when they said use a fused 12v source...

    my pedals are 'out' but i cant seem to get those out and put the new ones in, their the lasdt things on the list other then my reverse lights... so close but yet so far

    you can connect either wire to either wire. it doesn't matter.

    nope, it's gonna be custom fit. i'm gonna follow the CRX-h22 swaps minus mounts and axles. i can get those made myself. it's just a matter of money. i'm working hard this winter so by spring i should have the money i need. besides my regular job, i wait tables bringing home on average of $300 a night and that's gonna fund this project while my regular job pays the bills.
