1971 Chevy turn signal harness problem

I bought the american wire kit for my old girl. Love it was easy everything works great. The turn signal mechanism in the steering wheel went. I bought a new one from LMC but the bulk head connector is curved and not flat like the original one that plugs right into the new american wire harness. The colors dont match up perfectly either so I dont want to splice them in yet. Any help out there?

Re: 1971 Chevy turn signal harness problem

Your description isn't very clear. (bulkhead connector???). If I understand what you are saying, your replacement switch harness doesn't plug into the main harness because the plugs don't match.. You need an adaptor harness to complete the connection..

Here's a link to the part you need..

The switch and it's accompanying harness is on the right, the adaptor is on the right.. Classic Industries, LMC, and others have that adaptor..
