Question Transmission Swap Manual to AT

I have purchased a 92 civic cx hb recently restored with no engine. I then purchased a JDM D15B SOHC Engine with an automatic transmission complete with wire harness, ecu and axles. Now I am realizing that the fact the car previously had a manual transmission might present a problem when I go to drop the motor and trans in. A freind informed me that the interior wire harness might not be suitable for an automatic transmission. Also I am now wondering if there is an automatic shifter and linkage that will bolt in with no modifications as the cx hb was never offered with an auto. Have I made a mistake with this engine trans combo? What other potential problems might I need to look out for? Also I am only using this car as an in city comuter car not for performance which was why I got the auto.
