Monte 70car, I was reading the installation instructions and AAW kit will not support the factory ammeter and recommends using a voltmeter. What did you do to convert your gauge console from a ammeter to a voltmeter? I found a company on the internet called Instrument R Us that will convert your old ammeter to a voltmeter. But they want you to ship your gauge console to them. I really don't want to do that if I don't have too.

Monte 70car, The AAW wiring kit arrives tomorrow. I have already removed the engine & front light harness. I also removed the fuse box and disconnected the rear harness. Just from your experience with installing the AAW harness what would you do next? My first thought was to leave dash harness connected until I could get one of my friends to help me with removing the dash. Until the dash was removed I was going to take the new harness install the fuse box then connect the engine and the front light harness and then work on the rear harness. what do you think?

Monte 70car, I have already removed my engine and headlight harness/wiring. I also removed my fuse box but not all of the wiring in the inside of the car. Will I have to remove the dash to get to all of the wiring be hide the dash, instruments, light switch and others?

The AAW kit 510336 is the kit that was recommend by salesman. I have a question it seems that the AAW kit doesn't supply wiring for the power windows, doors or seat wiring. How would I connect them to the fuse box?

I want to thank everyone for the feedback and information you provided me. I contacted AAW and Painless and talk to tech/salesmen at both companies. Right now I'm reading installation guides both companies e-mailed me and deciding which wiring harness to purchase. From what I can tell right now both companies have outstanding wiring harness. Thanks again.

A friend suggested the painless harness, I had also researched American auto wire, every time I tried to contact their company I could never get anyone on the phone. I also wanted to hide some of the engine bay wiring that runs across the back of the firewall. I also have a electric choke, is the American auto wire harness updated with the current fuse (square type) used today ? I haven't order Painless yet, I wanted to get some feedback from some of the other members that have replaced their wiring harness. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm in the final stage of a on frame restoration of my 1972 MC. After re-installing my engine and getting it running I started having electrical issues and decide to replace the wiring harness. after doing some research I decide to go with the Painless wiring harness. I wanted to know if any of you have rewired there MC with the painless wiring harness and what tips or advice you could give me. This is my first time rewiring and entire car and any help or suggestions you could provide me would be appreciated. Thanks
