what I got with the harness. Dash wiring, everything that goes to the fuse box, through the firewall, and everything that comes through the drivers side grommet that wraps around the front of the car under the hood. Everything but the PCM wiring that comes from the passenger side.

I have a 93 4 cyl complete harness from front to back

89 tilt column and a 92 dash ..with a little modifying on the platic column cover around the column it can be done if you want to...

as far as the harnesses some of the connectors like to the wiper motor and the wiper switch and getting the rite cluster is were most of your problems will be, but if you get all the same stuff from the same car you will be fine

and the gauges there are a couple of different ways to make them all work .

simpilist way would be to run wires from you cluster to your senders like water and oil,tach very simple to figure out...

you can tap into the ignition switch to make all of the other stuff work

like fuel pump ,msd,ect

or if its not a street car it can be done even easier make your own harness...

if you look you can find an aftermarket harness not painless from 80 to 300 bux

but although not that hard, but time consuming splicing everything together and then you still need some of the stockharness for the end plugs to the connections. pita if you ask me
Dont need no wipers, no stock gauges, fuel pump ect. Only looking for keyed IGN, and lights, starter and charging.....everything else is useless. I'l have to drag it out and plug some stuff in.

So in need to check the column plug and headlights?

I see none of those harnesses are relayed and then I would need a switch panel.
