    Hi All,
    These are Appleton 552 handles. Where are the switches operated from? They different than the 112 switch?
    Also, when locating the mounts on the A-pillars, driver side has the wiring harness going up through it. How do folks manage that?
    Thanks, Steve

  2. The wire in the "A" pillar is for the dome light, drill pilot hole on the inside and outside, then drill the larger hole the same way then go all the way thru the pillar. If you hit the wire , just run a new one on the floor and up the "B" pillar to the dome light.

    Did the rear harness originally go along the floor? I ran the entire rear harness up through the A pillar and along he roof to the trunk

    Look up polykingcustompolymers on IG. He is a really nice guy and can help you out. He started remaking the proper mount brackets if you need them.
    On 552 I thought the switch was a push ****on in the end.
