Well,
Last night I was driving my '66B home from work when I noticed smelling
something unfamiliar. After stopping by the supermarket, some guy informed
me that I had no tail lights at all. Because I work late, I just crashed.
So today before I came to work I thought I'd check the rear wiring harness
to see if something came unplugged. To my surprise a few of the wires had
melted their insulation off and melted the blue wire wrap.
After realizing that this "could" have started a fire, I decided to
install a new harness. So I've been looking at the harness from Advance
Auto Wire. It looks very comprehensive and well thought out. So I have a
few questions...
1) Any one have any experience with the Advance Auto Wire harnesses?
http://www.advanceautowire.com/
2) Any suggestions for alternate locations for the new "Powerblock" (fuses &
relays)?
3) When Dan Masters (Advance Auto Wire founder) built his own custom MGB-GT
V8, he routed the wire through the sills. Has anyone else done this? Ideas
for routing wiring inside the car rather than under it? (

4) While I'm completing this project, what else should I consider doing?
I've thought about changing my wiper motor a newer 2-speed wiper (this is a
daily driver)
Thanks in advance
