You either need to get a single plug loom,or get your loom spliced to fit the loom.

In this community we take a very dim view of people,fronting their insurance.It makes it difficult for the rest of us.You will never get insurance on a vtr with a vts engine at your age,don't waste your time or ours.

Okay so they're the same year?

So early 3 plug is called a crossover. on the chassis legs it'll have 2 plugs. this might work with the single plug engine loom if the plugs fit, all you'll need to do is swap around a few wires in the plug.

A proper 3 plug "chassis" as you call it, has one large plug and won't physically fit. You'll need to splice the loom.

The changeover date is 1999. Crossover looms appear between 1999 and 2000. pre1999 is single plug

If you intend on driving uninsured, then don't ask questions in here. Frauds like yourself are the reason why our insurance premiums go up.

There's a crossover with a 3 plug ECU engine loom, and 2 interior loom plugs on the chassis legs as well as what you have.

PARTS BIN RAID!
