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.

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).
