received new wiring today

[dutch]

I picked up the new wiring for my cuda at the post office today.
This Ron Francis set is looking really nice and am glad I ordered from them.  All very nice quality parts...maybe even nicer then expected 
Can hardly wait to start installing...

[ChallengerHK]

Sounds cool, and you know what they say
 

[hemiken]

Great to hear Dutch..............

Man that stuff gives me a headache, looks like spaghetti when spread out, you guys can keep your electrical stuff, only thing i have not tried to learn................

Oh yea, Dutch.................







I missed it. Good one HK..............

[dutch]

oh yeah...I know about spagetti headaches      but I guess it`s time to learn something new again...plus I`ve got this friend who has soldering bolts for fingers

Thats the regulator they sent you? The square box?

[dutch]

yup...

[Chryco Psycho]

GM regulator
 the headlight switch will shut off the front park lights unless you bridge the terminals on the switch
 most of the wire colors are GM as well
 do 1 circuit at a time & you will be ok

[dutch]

  I knew about the headlight switch, I`m not sure if I will use it but it came in the kit.  I`m not impressed by the looks of the regulator, but I suppose it will work just fine...  I don`t care if the colors don`t match chrysler colors as there won`t be a trace left of the original wiring when I`m done 
It`s all pretty well documented and looks like even I can install it

At least the fuses are all neatly labled. Unlike the Painless fuse box where you have no idea what fuse does what.

Dutch,
How are you coming on the Ron Francis kit install?  Where did you locate the panel? 

I am getting ready to order a kit for my 67 Barracuda but it is tight under the dash, I'm not sure where to mount the panel.  There is no room on the driver's side kick panel at the top due to the cold air box.  The only place that looks possible is in the center below the wiper motor location.

Does anyone have any ideas?

[dutch]

I`m not ready to install for at least another few months. I will mount the fusebox in the floorconsole....I want to build a custom console, bigger then the original so space won`t be a problem for me.  Can`t help you with another location , I`ve never had an a- body...
good luck
