So am I nuts for wanting to replace wires with the same color/stripe wires? I couldn't find one thread on this topic here, and i'm there is more than a handful of us that have had a toasty wire or two.
I figured replace them with the same color so later when I look at a wiring diagram I don't confuse myself further. Anyone have a source to buy colored wires? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) get a used harness, thats what I did, you will have plenty of good lengths of correct (metric sized/original color patterns) colored wire, jeff bolwsby does not use old wire nor metrics.. and your not going to find wire striped in the patrern used on a 914 anywhere new bulk.. |
