What's the conventional wisdom on replacing the wiring harness? And where to source it? I've been under the dash a lot lately, and most of the wiring I'm seeing is after-market spliced-on junk. So I'm wondering if anyone knows of folks who have a relatively accurate loom'd replacement, and/or comments on their experience with replacing wiring. I'd like to replace what's there with modern insulated stock, but would like to match the original color-coding as accurately as possible. But if there are accurate repro-harnesses, I'd be happy to consider working with that. Comments? Hilarious laughter? |

I recently parted-out a few cars and have complete used looms. Other than that, you can completely replace your harness with a custom one like I did. |

These folks are great and you can't beat the price - $120 for a 12 circuit, all wires are labeled the entire length. http://www.ezwiring.com/ Ron |

You could also replace it with an OEM harness. There is this British Wiring company in the UK that makes them for our JH! I believe Greg Fletcher sources several items from them. Go to: http://www.britishwiring.com/Jensen.PDF Good luck Erik, Netherlands |

Hey, thanks for the britishwiring link. For some reason I had overlooked them. That's gonna fix me up just fine. Now I can replace my broken fuse box! woohoo! |
