Default 61 dash harness

How long should it take to install a dash harness in a 61 and who makes the best harness

Thanks George

Not sure how long... It depends upon what is there in the way.

I would order it through the ebay user called "thepartsladi". Do a search. They drop ship these from Letric Limited and are about 30 or so cheaper than anyone else.

Worked great for me since I saved a few $$.00 drove and picked up the harness.

Another vote for lectric limited. I swear by their attention to detail and quality product. I'm not the fastest and I am really particular when it comes to wire harness installs-if I was extremely motivated it would take me a saturday to install but usually closer to a weekend.

What about M&H, I deal with Corvette America and they claim M&H are just as good, yes, no?

IIRC, I spent about 4-6 hours changing my harness, which included R&R of the instrument cluster.

Note well => if you have your cluster out, get your speedo and tach rebuilt, completely rebuilt, not just cleaned up, or sure as **** one of them will fail within a few months , and you will have to take the entire cluster out again to get the instrument repaired.

M&H are just as good as Lectric Limited, some think better. I've used both and had no problems with either. I've heard, but don't know for sure, that the C2 dash harness from M&H has the correct bulb sockets whereas the other doesn't.
