Re: AAW install
I'm thinking of replacing the wiring in my truck. There's a lot of M Mouse stuff left over from when my FiL owned it. Nice to see that it went easily. Time, I have.

Re: AAW install
di you happrn to notice if there was a different part number for 67-68`s? as the plug thru the firewall is different. also did you have to mount the firewall plug with those screws sticking out?

The screws you see are what is provided in the kit but I will change mine out for something different for sure. I'm going to end up cutting them off close to flush or through bolting with the nuts on the inside. |

Re: AAW install
Does the kit come with some way to cover up the cut in the firewall around the bulkhead connector? I believe the stock bulkhead connector on the engine compartment side is actually larger than the hole in the firewall so it conceals the hole and allows for a seal to be used between the connector and firewall. Seems like AAW should address this if they haven't already.

Re: AAW install
The kit comes with a template for the firewall opening.
I cut my hole as tight as possible and the gap you see is overlapped by the gasket inside......I hope that makes sense |

Re: AAW install
Ok. Thanks for all the replies about the bulkhead connector seal! Good to know for a future project that I want to use the AAW kit on.

Re: AAW install
With my previous owners and their HACK jobs on the wiring, having my AAW kit was and still is one of my favorite investments on the truck nice truck
