Wiring is fun! I wired my desoto with an harness for a GM column. I had to start fresh and make it fit the 88 Dakota column. It was a challenge but rewarding when I got things to work one by one. What kind of harness did you get
Jeff, I got a complete under hood from Evans. I'm going to try to use a 67 dash harness as I have quite a few spares that are un cut (and I'm a cheap bastard). I only have to move one wire in the bulkhead connector and use a 67 Ign switch. I've bee avoiding crawling under the dash. I was planning on pulling the dash frame, but a friend convinced me not to. The jury is still out.

Hello Rich,
If you end up pulling the complete dashboard assembly including the metal dashboard frame, you will have to remove the front windshield mouldinds, windshield glass and windshield gasket, as the bolts that hold the metal dashboard shell to the body are located underneath all of those parts and are not accessible with them in place. :p
