Yes..
Why would the connectors be flipped?
A lot of the ECUs were used in US, Euro, JDM cars, with different programs and some small hardware changes for different engines, like no no knock sensor or barometric sensor..

Those don't have anything to do with the ECU, I don't understand what you're talking about at all.. I'm sure there are a lot of harness differences behind/below the dash, because JDM cars are right hand drive, but what specifically are you worried about? Why would the engine computer control the wipers and hazards???????

i know it has nothing to do with the ecu. its just an example of one thing being different from the american and japanese cars. the part im getting is supposed to be piggy backed on the ecu. but i looked at it and it'll work. thanks
