The K-Sight wasn't the first K-swapped first gen Insight...but it was the first that was designed to be a real street car with all the 'extras' working as originally intended.
That means A/C, ABS, (electric) power steering, full interior with working (S2000)dash. Everything we saw before that was strictly a drag racer.
The second K-sight also included cruise control and turbo as per customer request.

And as far as the wiring, yes sometimes you bring in others to make something "out of the ordinary" become possible.
By bringing in people who are specialists, you make the level of build able to achieve that higher quality.
And for the record, John didn't do the stitching on the seats either.
