Dave,
I would suggest that you contact Dan Masters.
I sold Dan a bunch of wire for LBC's.
He is actually making harness's for our LBC's.
The wire in the Spit's is cheap GPT 16 awg through 10 awg.
The battery cables are 4 awg.
You need SXL, GXL or TXL wire.
Out there on the web under Scions of Lucas is a little wire 101 I did years
ago.
Take a look at that.
The main problem your going to have with the wire is the striped stuff.
I sell it but there is a 500ft min per base color with a stripe.
Last count your looking at 10 striped wires and the rest are solid color.
Good luck

Well, Considering ALL of the wire that goes to the back end of my car is
completely destroyed, I have decided that i am going to run new wire
throughout the whole car. A big job i know, but i think it will pay off in
the end. That way i can make sure everything is connected where it needs to
be connected, good connectors, make my own color designations, etc.
What gauge wire should i use? What is stock for these cars? I am guessing
around 14 or 12? I can't imagine that it is too big.
Any advice or tips on this job would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
