I believe Lectric Limited makes/sells them. Not sure if the other Vette vendors are selling another version or just selling Letric Limiteds product.

Hi John,
I agree that Lectric-Limited is a good choice.
The engine harness is pretty straight forward to do because it's quite simple and the access is good. Be sure to note the position of the wiper/washer connections and the wiring for the TCS connections.
The dash harness is a much more complicated harness and the necessary access is only gained by taking apart the dash panel and also the shifter and e-brake consoles.
I'd label the old dash harness connections while you're taking it out so you have something to refer to as you're putting the new one in place.
Good Luck!
Regards,
Alan

Default Wiring harness

. The engine is a piece of cake to do. The dash, not so easy. Also, M&H also makes a great harness. Good luck. Jerry

Letric Limited sourced through forum vendor Wilcox.....better pricing that establishing a dealer account with LL.....LL harnesses tend to look closer to original than the M&H's I looked at years ago, maybe things have changed....this was several years back.
