Re: Planning Out Electrical/Wiring for a Harness

I use the plastic wire wrap for runs along the frame and places where I want to protect the wiring and the factory style wrap for under the hood for a nice original look.

Thank you both for your comments, I’ll definitely take your advice into consideration during the install. Is there a vendor for AAW here on the forum that I could use or would it be better just to order direct from them?
