Ok who has did a complete car rewire ?how hard was it and what wire harness did you use.I'm thinking about my car that has carbs not FI .Maybe one of those painless kits??

I think there was a thread on installing the main harness. I will find it and post a link to it.

Yup, found it, its right here

Thanks Scott now what do you think about any after market wire harness with new relays and such?

I'm gonna re do Frank...was gonna start this weekend but I'm going to Skline's.....

I bought the generic Painless Wireing Loom...

I dont have any experience what so ever with aftermarket harnesses. Bowlsby makes some nice ones but they are designed after the factory ones. I am sure someone here has worked with the painless wiring kit, hope for the best.

I have not done a complete rewire but have performed major replacement of sections. It is really not too difficult and you learn a lot about your car. It helps to remove seats, tanks, cover plates, etc. for easy access. It is important to match original color codes so standard wire diagrams can be used. I have not seen Jeff Bowlsby's harnesses but it sounds like he has put a lot of effort into their quality.

Out of curiosity, why are you replacing the harness?

I just don't trust some of the old wires in the car .Hate to have elec probs later after the cars all put back togeather.

What year is your car? I have a very nice Factory harness never molested with all of the connectors in VGC.
