Climate Control / HVAC Verified Modification Required

Automatic climate control system (EDM Jazz electronic HVAC)

Source: Jazz (GE) (GE (2nd gen, EDM/LHD)) - 2009-2013
Target: Fit (GE8) (GE8 (2nd gen, US/Canada)) - 2009-2013

This retrofits the European Jazz's factory automatic climate control into a US/Canada Fit that was never offered the feature. What bolts up: the mode motor locates on an existing boss, the air-mix motor screws to an existing mount, and the factory blower motor, air filter, and tray transfer directly into the new blower box. What does not: multiple servo mounts are absent on the Fit and rely on VHB standoffs, and the resistor opening must be enlarged for the transistor. The conversion needs the complete EDM interior harness (32117-TF2-R40), a separate outdoor temperature sensor harness (a CR-Z is a convenient donor), and the Jazz sub cord (32157-TF0-G30) that connects to the servos via the 36-pin connector; the sub cord itself needs no changes. The original Fit harnesses and connectors are left fully intact so the car can be reverted to stock. Display units are Celsius on European donors; only the Fit EV unit reads Fahrenheit. Plan on roughly 15 hours of labor.

Dashboard and interior conversion Verified Modification Required

DC2 dashboard (with dash harness, heater box, fusebox, console and trim)

Source: Integra (DC2) - 1994-1997 (OBD1)
Target: Civic (EG) - 1992-1995

A complete DC2 dash with its harness attached is the right starting point; keep everything from the same OBD generation (94-97 DC2 is OBD1, matching an OBD1 EG main harness). The DC2 heater box bolts to the EG firewall with no modification and should be used instead of the EG unit. The DC2 underdash fusebox is optional but enables all dash functions, and its fuses sit in the same locations as the EG box. The DC2 center console and armrest align correctly once their brackets and the carpet are fitted; DC2 black carpet fits the EG almost perfectly. DC2 kick panels fit but need the EG sill mouldings trimmed.

Shift knob / Gear selector Verified

Fit leather automatic (CVT) shift knob and base cover

Source: Fit (GE) - 2009-2012
Target: CR-Z

The leather-wrapped automatic shift knob from a 2009-2012 Honda Fit (part# 08U92-TK6-110A) mounts to the CR-Z CVT shift tree using the same two-screw spacing as the factory knob, so it seats on the same splined tree and is retained by the two notches on the tree. The knob usually ships with its own screws. On the CR-Z the base is finished with a separate plastic cover plate (part# 54132-TF0-951ZA). Alternate Fit-family knobs are reported to work the same way, including a red-stitched version (part# 08U92-TF0-710A) and one (part# 08U92-SLN-100C) that integrates its trim and needs no separate cover. The knob's trigger/plunger operates the CVT shift release exactly as the stock unit does.

Integra DC5 Steering Wheel

Source: Integra DC5 (Type R) - 2001-2006
Target: Civic EK (Sixth Generation) - 1996-2000

Direct bolt-on upgrade. DC5 Type R steering wheel is smaller diameter and provides better grip.

Integra Type R Seats

Source: Civic EK (6th Gen) - 1996-2000
Target: Integra Type R DC2 (3rd Gen) - 1995-2001

Direct bolt-in upgrade. ITR Recaro seats are highly sought after for their comfort and support.

seats Verified Modification Required

S2000 AP1 Seats

Source: Civic EK (6th Gen) - 1996-2000
Target: S2000 AP1 (1st Gen) - 1999-2003

S2000 seats offer excellent support and are more affordable than ITR seats.

Dashboard switch panel Verified Modification Required

S2000 push button

Source: S2000 (AP1/AP2)
Target: RSX (DC5) - 2002-2006

This is a cosmetic/accessory fitment, not an ignition conversion. The button mounts into a fabricated blank panel in the RSX dash. Cars without factory foglights already have one spare blank; a second blank is ordered from Acura. Because the RSX key uses an immobilizer chip, the button does not start the engine on its own and the key is still required. While the panel is out, the cruise-control switch can be reconnected and hidden so cruise operates from the steering wheel only.

Steering wheel Verified Modification Required

S2000 steering wheel (SRS airbag wheel)

Source: S2000 (AP1 (JDM wheel with cruise control buttons))
Target: Prelude (5th generation (ATTS)) - 1997

Working installation documented on a 1997 ATTS 5th-generation Prelude, retaining airbag, horn and cruise control; after refitting, the SRS light went out 8 seconds after start and horn, cruise, indicator self-cancel and ATTS all functioned. The wheel and inflator connect via the existing cable reel - no wires are cut. The author confirms the same concept works for: CTR or S2000 wheel onto EM Civic, EJ Civic and 5th-gen Prelude, and an EJ wheel onto a 5th-gen Prelude. It does NOT work on cars whose SRS ECU mounts to the inflator's back inside the wheel (4th-gen Prelude, EG Civic, EK Civic per the author) - those wheels are not interchangeable. The S2000 wheel uses the whole airbag pad as the horn; the CTR wheel has horn buttons either side. A JDM S2000 wheel is needed for cruise buttons - Australian-delivered S2000 wheels have none. If the SRS light latches on (e.g. from cranking with the inflator disconnected), reset the SRS ECU via the yellow 2-wire service connector under the dash near the fuse box: ignition on with the connector bridged, unbridge within 4 seconds of the light going out, rebridge within 4 seconds of it coming back on - the light then blinks twice to confirm reset (battery disconnection alone will not clear it).
