Ronnie,
If you don't mind British wire in your car, try this company. I bought
some of their wire several years ago to use to build my own harness.
I wonder how many customers get turned off by the name of the company!

What colors ... er... colours are you looking for? I can cut some
samples of the wires I have and send them up to you.
Peace,
Pat
