Car's getting a water cooled swap. I'm in the process of cleaning up/repainting almost everything. When all is done, it'll receive an entirely new electrical harness. Is there a reason I shouldn't take a set of face cutters to the existing harness and go nutz?
[edit]
just to clarify, this is the chassis harness, the engine harness went with the engine
Ok, I obviously didn't explain the extent of what's happening to this car
It's more than a swap, more like full rebuild at this point. Somehow I get hung up on the engine as that's the part I'm working on now.
It's getting a completely new electrical harness after paint. I'm pretty dead set on it.
Is there any demand for OE chassis harnesses? It's of no use to me.
IIRC, some of the connectors are hard to get. I wouldn't toss it. You might see if Bowlsby wants it.
You can pull the entire harness out intact in about 45 minutes or less. I'm not sure why you're willingly making unnecessary work for yourself. 99% of the cars on here are running factory wiring and don't have any problems.
New isn't always better.
If you are going to rewire your car. Please remove the harness and save it for a needy 914 owner.
There's so much new gear going into the car that about 4 of the original wires would be useable. Besides, paint will be a HELL of a lot easier with all the wires removed so a clean minimalist chassis harness just seems to sense.
It's coming out whole. Gimme a couple of days and it'll be available if anyone's interested;)
