Default Backup Switch Wiring

I've got a molested 69 350 4speed. My backup lights don't work because the wiring to the switch is missing. Not sure of the history, but I found the circuit wires (light green and pink) fused (that is, melted) together under the dash. Since the harness vendors won't sell bits and pieces, I'm wondering if anyone has a salvaged harness who'd consider making me a deal on the connector and wiring.

The switch had a long lead on it... do you need this, or from the switch connector up to the dash area? It makes a difference on which connector I need to look for. But I should have this if you want to give sales a call. 812-288-7103

Willcox: I have the switch with attached leads and connector (male terminals). I'm looking for the "switch connector up to the dash area". What I need would have to be cut from a salvaged harness. Are you saying that you'd be able to provide this?

Yep.. I should be able to do that. I'd have to check on Tuesday, but I think I have it... just give them a call on Tuesday and I'd be happy to check..

Willcox.
