12 Circuit Wire Harness


I got these billet mounting plates for the wiper and headlight switch but they are way too big. They are going back

Okay, I am stupid. The holes on the end are for the headlight and dimmer switches. Idiot....

What usually goes in the middle? Ignition?

The center mount is for the ignition. Yea, I got two. When I ordered it you can't tell how big it is and I thought the switch mounted in the center and the side holes were mounting holes for the plate. I had two switches so I got two. I am keeping the one with the LEDs and my buddy is going to use the other one in his 55 Ford.

It is a 12 circuit harness, so just the basics. It is branded as Speedway Motors and was $130

Re: Project '86
Shifter fits perfectly!

Just need to modify the front seat mounts slightly and it will bolt back in. Wasn't sure if it would clear the new trans tunnel or not

Ample.

It looks snug in the pics but it's same or better than stock.

Re: Project '86
Started on the gauge mount. It will be recessed so that the front of the dash stays smooth.

Re: Project '86
The gauges are 3/4" from the mounting surface to the front of the glass so I will probably match that. That sounds kind of deep though so I may go shallower. Just have to see how it looks once I drop it in.

That sounds good...that's what I was thinking when I mentioned it
