will a 99 harness work in my 95 gsx??

the engine bay harness in my 95 gsx is hacked up could i replace it with my 99 gst harness without having any problems?

You couldn't just swap them out without making changes, it is very possible to make the '99 harness work though.

so just stick with my hacked harness? some connectors are broken or cut off.

You could just..repair it..

I'm not smart enough to do that myself so if you know someone that does show me the direction. The connectors for the headlights and fog lights are cut off i believe those are the only ones

Anyone is smart enough, you've just got to go into the project positively. If you don't have enough faith in yourself to repair the hacked up harness thats in there, then I don't advise swapping in the '99 harness. The work isn't hard but you've got to at least be able to follow simple wiring instructions and solder a few things.

yeah i realised it shouldnt be hard just need to find connectors and solder some wires. might has well ask here but is there a write up how to pull the harness? i had no luck finding one

Pulling the harness out is much harder than just fixing four plugs. Just to be sure, the headlights and all that are on the body harness on the 2g's, correct? As in, not the easier to remove, but still a pita engine harness.

Why not stop by your local junk yard and pick up the plugs you need. Get a soldering iron, solder, heat shrink. practice on some spare wire, to get the hang of it. its not hard at all. Look up a how to solder demo, as thats all you need to learn. the plugs are strait forward, match the colors and off you go.

Shove a small screwdriver in there and lift up on the connector, pulling it up and away from the metal tab. The metal tabs bend easy, as you probably know now, so be careful...

I already did that and for some reason it still wont come out. I used a small flathead pushed in and pulled the plug but no luck ill keep trying to mess with it.
