I just finished rewiring my mark 1 with a new Painless wiring harness and it turned out great. Everything works and it looks good. I now have a state of the art fuse box and more than 3 fuses! The kit I used was # 10201 18 circuit universal. I didn't end up needing the 18 circuits but I wanted extra circuits available in case I wanted to add electric fan, heated seats (which I did), etc. It was very easy to use and looks very professional. I also bought a cover for it (separate) so it will be mostly hidden from view. I used all of the original switches and knobs, so it looks totally original.

Congrats on the clean installation - it looks great in the photo. Were the instructions with kit all the help you needed? I could see doing this in the future, and I can follow instructions, but electrical is my most challenging area. Clinton

Very nice...but what if water splashes up on it. I know that little dinky 3 fuse box did have a cover...

It was easy to install, just took a fair amount of time. I should also mention that this car was a frame up restoration, so accessibility was not a problem. All of the wires are labeled and all of the relays, etc are on fuse box. The only time I struggled a bit was to hook them to the Jensen switches as you know sometimes they used 2 wires instead of one or went to another part before returning. The only piece that it did not allow was the seat buzzers otherwise everything works great. I do have a cover for it as well, I just didn't show it.

I am wondering if that Painless kit was for a GM vehicle? The current Painless 10201 is 28 circuits, 18 fuses, and is color coded based on the GM colors. How is the Painless working these many years later?

the painless kit i used was #10201 universal street rod harness 18 circuits gm column. It had extra instructions for GM ford and Mopar. I didn't need all of the circuits so a little overkill. The wiring has been flawless, have never had any problems. Best thing i ever did.
