While, I am not arguing on any of those points, Vicky Brit does seem to
always have in stock what I want (I use them as a last resort) However, I
do not know how you could have a wiring harness and not have the dash
harness, They are one in the same. There is no way in the world to
separate the main harness from the dash. The transmission harness (whew
hew, Both wires), the rear harness (a half way substantial item) and the
headlight harness are the only ones that are separable. I do believe
whoever you are talking to is probably 18, paid minimum wage, and not even
sure what a Triumph is.

I have to say that Vic Brit is a poor company. All
they know is part numbers, you ask a question and they
have no idea what you're talking about. TRF on the
other hand, as well as Rimmer Brothers, have great
ordering and tech knowledge. I say screw Vic Brit and
give your business to people who care about YOU and
your CAR, not profit.
