Just looking into who makes the best harness and for the best price would really like to upgrade to something with blade fuses if someone makes one and want one with extra room to add things like a/c and to power my power seats

I've really liked the American Autowire Classic Update kits I've installed in my C10 and Chevelle. Pricy but worth it.

I've also installed a Rebel Wire 9+3 kit in a Ford F100. http://rebelwire.com They are just as good quality-wise, but not nearly as full featured as the American Autowire kits.

The 60-66 painless harness is really easy to install. Its nice how all the wires are labeled.

I used the American auto wire harness and it was very nice. I used the classic update harness and it has all the extras I needed in it.

Depending on what you are wanting. Rebel Wire makes a nice lower cost harness. It is more universal. American Autowire Classic Update will more follow the original design with more circuits and better wire.
I know several members have used EZ Wire, but personally I am not a fan of their kits.

I used American autowire it worked well for me. Be sure to shop around for price.

I used EZ wiring 12 circuit harness it went in fine. I am not an electrician so it was a challenge for me! Everything works though so if I can do it you can too! I will say though after the fact, I wish I would have gotten the 21 circuit harness to have more power options! It's now looking like I will have to add an additional fuse extender panel to gain more power options!
