Re: 1959 gmc wiring harness. What do I do?

Thanks guys for the ideas, if i was to start anew and make my own harness what have people been doing as far as lighting up the gauge cluster? I assume most people have chevys and they just get a aftermarket one which wouldn't be a problem. For Gmc there is only one aftermarket cluster I could find and it doesn't look right. I rather have the original. For this there are little bulbs that go on the sides of the gauges and are grounded out on the cluster. They look different from lights i've seen before. Problably best just to use the one's in there now correct? I found the schematic for a 55 chevy it has done me well figuring out what was original and not. I have pulled all not original wiring. I have found the original wires match the schematic by the color and number. This truck has a 350 with a muncie 4spd. I may put the original to the truck 283 back in with the auto hydramatic. Time will tell what actually happens. The truck also has aftermarket heat and an msd ignition.
