Red face I hate to ask, BUT....a little help from OEM fanatics please?

Ok, I have searched and searched and searched because I KNOW I have seen it on here before, but it's always how it goes, when you need it, you can't find it.

I searched the advanced search, the FAQ, and Google in every way I can tonight for the cigarette lighter wiring diagram. I know there is a scan SOMEWHERE out there showing how the factory routed the wires. You know, where it showed the cut out views of the dash and where to route the wires, where to put the wire retaining clips, and so forth.

Sure, I could just throw the wires loosely up under the dash and route to plug in to any constant hot, but I am sick in the head and have a severe obsession with doing things the way the factory or dealership would have done them when installing new items. My truck isn't factory correct, but I have made attempts to put it back that way piece by piece over time. It's a fascination that is borderline sickness.

I plan on buying the factory assembly manual ASAP, but for now, if someone could share a scan or point me to a thread that I have missed with the correct under dash wire routing guide for the cigarette lighter I would be grateful. This is a lighter that I got from Classic Chevy Truck Parts and it has a lighted feature that I am not sure was original, but maybe it was an option...I hope.

Anyway, not to waste a thread, but after a couple hours of searching, I figured I'd risk a bit of ridicule and ask.

I'm using the company phone so I can't give you the direct link. Look right below in my signature for a link to 1963 truck literature. Scroll down till you see accessories installation with the beige cover of the manual. It should be listed in that album.

Re: I hate to ask, BUT....a little help from OEM fanatics please?

if the wires are white and black with white strip, they may be original, if the wire is red then i think its aftermarket. they route on the firewall/dash lip with clips i think 3 all the way back to the fuse box, i have an nos lighter i can post a pic of the install insert that came with the lighter in the am, thats if u didnt find it on aerotruk63's page
