<div>The car is a BN6 No. 2344.  Moss list a change to the Wire harness somewhere around 3459. Cannot find an explanation of why the change.  The harness that came of was PVC with black plastic wrapping which I thought was original.  would like to be as close as possible to original.</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
<div>Gerry</div>

<div><br /> Looking for an point of view.  should one replace the wire harness that is braided or try to follow the original that appears to be PVC and banded together with black rap. The original is not that bad but again not that good.</div>

<div>can some who is on the MGT list know how to get on it?</div>
