Default Wiring Question

I am trying my butt off to get this car put back together, but I seem to find 2 more things to fix for every 1 that I get fixed...anyway...

I am going to be replacing the wiring harness in my car, but I have a question that I hope someone can answer. Is the plug that goes into the back of the 77 gauge cluster part of the main dash wiring harness or is that a separate piece. Mine is not in a condition that I would like to reuse.

The plug is part of the harness.

Ok, that is good news. It appears that Bubba had just barrel spliced the hell out of the original wiring harness then

Check the printed circuit over real well right where the plug goes in,I glue the back side of the printed circuit there so it doesn't get torn as easy.
