I have been working with Gerald Kroon at Kroon Wire Harnesses. I just sent them my 70 harness as a core and as soon as they receive it, they will begin building my 914-6 main chassis harness. Gerald suggested that I order a 70 ROW harness as that's what most customers order for a 914-6.

I understand what "Rest of World" means in general terms but not sure what that means exactly when it comes to a US build car (US v. ROW features/options).

My car is a conversion but will have all 914-6 specific parts (steering column, switches, wiper, etc.).

Your feedback and opinion regarding the 70 ROW harness, as being the correct harness, is welcome! I do not want to order the wrong harness.

Thanks,

Greg

I sent him my '71 - 4 harness to duplicate. After almost 2 years he said he decided not to duplicate it and asked if I wanted it back. Hell yes. Cost me $75 in shipping that I didn't get back. No compensatin from Kroon for the use of my harness for almost 2 years. I know he tells people to list their harnesses for very little value to beat customs but you take a gamble if your harness is lost in shipping.

If your 1971 harness is a late model year has the 14 pin connector at the steering column, I may be interested in buying it if its is for sale. LMK.
