I can't remember which hamber sells ez wiring kits. I need one and would rather patronize a fellow HAMBer....Fido
I've sold a few to HAMB'ers.I'm on vacation tell Jan.3rd. Just give me a call.1-800-426-5911 If you don't get through keep trying! I've been gone for 2 weeks and I'm sure all hell will break lose when I get back. ERIC
I have a buddy whos an Electrician where I work and he said that the one he put in his 70 GTO judge was a nightmare.....thats just one guy though, but he does know his stuff.
They don't make one for a 1970 GTO. I guess it would have been alot of work. Should have ordered the correct wiring harness for the job.

It was probably a universal wiring harness. I put a e-z harness in my sedan and thats what it was...easy. Good instructions and color coded, stamped wires. You could'nt ask for much more.
I put one in my 37, It was the first car I had ever wired. Without the color coded wires too, I used the one with all black wires, and it was still simple. I had one issue at the column with a connector that had pushed loose, but that was it.
I put one in my 54 Buick. Very very simple EXCEPT when it came to the start/coil, directions kind of justwent south so we had to figure it out for a few hours. Besides that, it was fine. Oh yea, I had the all black wires
I've yet to install the EZ harness I purchased, but I bought mine straight from EZ. Shipped to my door for the 21 circuit, I believe TT&L was $175.00. Reverend Jake
I bought the kit too, it looks good but i havent tried to install it, I just bought it through the add in Rod&Custom.
My friend told me about this place'Ron Francis Wiring' he said its easy and and every wires labeled like every 6 inches saying where it goes.He did his car over one weekend and it was his first time.

[/ QUOTE ] EZ wiring is the same this as RF (being labeled every 6 inches), I just think RF is a little to much $$$$ to spend for the "same" product
Painless and Ron Francis were outrageous compared to E-Z. I just can't see where they're worth the extra $$$$. I had put off putting mine in because I thought it would be tough, but it only took about half a day.
I put one in my 31 Pontiac and it was no trouble at all. The directions were sort of cryptic but it wasn't all that bad. The only issue I had were some crimped connectors at the fuse box were not tight. After I recrimped them I've had no problems.
I put in a Saint Kwik Wire.Same as all the rest,color coded and labeled.They offer about 5 different fuse boxes and 8,14,21 circuit harnesses and all the accessories.Best part there shop is only about a mile down the road from me.I think the 21 circuit with coil shut off (anti-theft) is only like $190-$200.Comes with instructions and diagrams for all makes. Saint Wire and Cable N4932 cty tk V Fond du Lac,Wi 54935 920-921-2637

Before I pay Rod Francis prices, I will pirate one from a donor. My time for the car is limited right now, so I think this is the best route. Hell, how hard can it be. I am just hoping the Speedway halogen conversion kit I bought for these 32 Desoto headlights goes in OK. I am more intimidated by that...Thanks for all replies...Fido
