Does the Headlight Harness route under the radiator or along top of it?

Mine runs across the top.

Top front. Attaches to the radiator support.

The rain slowed down enough to grab a few pics. The new harness has a plastic loom (guess that what it is called) that looks like it screws down to the top of the radiator but as you can see in these pics there is no plastic loom piece.

BTW here is a pic of the harness.

The harness in the picture is the one that fastens to the firewall and is wired for the distributor/starter, etc.

The harness that goes to the head lights has a much longerplastic channel.

The one in the pic is the one I have on my truck.

Jim is right. That's the engine harness, mounts on the rear of the engine compartment. This shows what the wires go to.

It mounts in the channel on the firewall.

I should have been more specific: The one in skokie's post is the one I have along my cowl panel part of the firewall. The brown wire is for the brake MC, the rest of the wires are labelled in Fred's post.
