    Installing wire harness…a few questions ('67)

    Those of you who have done this, I hope you can help, I'm kinda flying blind. The harness:

    1) There are 2 holes inside headlight bucket. I thought 1 was wiring, and 2 was a drain. If so, how do the turn signal wires route?
    2) The wires for the dome light switches… how do they get inside the door jamb?
    3) The dome lights harness…up over the windshield and around?

    Thanks, I'm sure this is just the beginning.

    #1 If I remember correctly all the wires go into the bucket through the conduit, then the park/ turn wires go out through one bucket hole to the park light housing.
    #2 The switch wires just fish through a hole near the edge of the dash into the pillar, takes a little patience, and/or a 'snake' wire to get them to come out the switch hole.
    #3 relatively sure the wires go up the right side a pillar, then cross at the front to the left side. The lengths should tell you if that's correct.

    Thanks as always, Ed (and others). The harness is in the car, down the tunnel, not fully routed yet, but the heavy lifting is done. I 'restored' the harness (@ 16 hours) with supplies from Kroon. Right down to the little boots on the terminals. It'll be some time before I can fully test the results.

    That's the "unglamorous" part of a restoration! Tedious,,,,but necessary.
