Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Jim, I've got hog ring pliers and a steamer....pick up a seat cover kit and I'll fix those seats for you

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Didn't know about the steamer. Shame Tim Christian's sale doesn't include utility seats:lol: The hounds tooth sounds good in black/white. Maybe we can do a thread on it: How to

Thanks for the offer, I'll take ya up on it

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

I wonder is I can get that walrus grain in bulk, or even the scroll pattern, i know the seat cover makers get it from somewhere, maybe we can get a hold of some?? I asked Tim about utilities and regular bucket covers in highlander, said it couldn't be done? I am sure someone can do it, maybe his shop is too busy with the regular stuff to take on a sort of custom job/ set of covers??

Today's me Friday;)... M&H fabricators box, and one from Otsenre

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

First pic turned out crappy, any ideas where the original tach harness hole was located on the firewall?

Tach hole location right of the fuse box hole - taken from another post below - (not my pic).

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Thanks for the speedy response and the link. Something is already there, brown wire running with the rear lites. Maybe sending unit, maybe I'll drill another hole, or try two get to wires in one grommet

Three pics up, already got something in that hole

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Well, realizing that I am extremely anal, I think I will drill another hole below the existing one, rite where the 4 detents line up horizontally...Maybe GM did that for a reason

Time to go buy a stepper drill

Now to find out where it plugs into the fuse block

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Or you could use one of the empty spots in the new terminal block. NAPA has the proper crimp connectors, both male and female. The wire would never be noticed.

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Thanks for the idea, but my harness has the terminal ends done, just not sure of location...wonder if the wiring schematic has locations

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Asfar as I got this weekend, should've bought a couple rolls of electrical tape at M&H:dohh:

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

holy mother-of-all ratsnests!! I HATE wiring. good luck Jimbo...looks like you've got your hands full

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Maybe I should've been careful taking it out:haha: Scary thing is that there is another bundle ya can't see...6t727t2 has a nice parts blazer over there, wonder what he wants for it:lol:

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

I've got a new 16 circuit wiring harness here...LOL

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Yeah, but it's not stock...along time ago that was my dilema, painless or stock. I choose the painful way

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

FYI: There's some people right here in NJ that make fantastic harnesses...

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Didn't know that, I'll check them out. OK downloaded, will read when I get a chance

Rerouted my wires to the back side of the motormount plate

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

hmm,

American Autowire has 1949-1966 and 1969-1972 upgrade kits... NO 67 or 68???

I like this kit though..

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

M&H has those years...that kit looks like alot of work, but very nice

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

aren't all the kits a lot of work? I like that it's complete...so they say

a full M&H kits adds up to $600+ doesn't it?

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

The stock ones seem to be easier, I'm only replacing what needs to be done. Engine harness was about 100...front light harness is around 190, should be good to go after I finish them.

With the kit everything has to go, and be refitted

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

And everything is gone in mine. Rusty fusebox, burnt wires.. The taillight section on mine could be saved...:lol:

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Looking good Jim...when is the fire up date.

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

OK, I understand. Didn't know you had to do under the dash
