Hope that helps...

 

for what he's talking about, I've seen on message boards, people say for some civics, use the lighter blue wire (with white line, i think?) and then others say the dark blue wire. there's a distinction, and our 97 DX has both. so I am in the exact same bind, as which one to use.

My assumption, by that link is the dark blue. I'll probably eventually just try it and see how it goes.
