RE: Re-wiring option



My Ron Francis set-up was for the entire car. Headlights to tail lights. 
It included a new voltage regulator, new headlight switch, the Express 
panel, (there are cheaper versions too) and all the wires and terminals. 
I bought a new dimmer switch and had to figure out how to transition to 
the printed circuit dash. I found the  connectors I needed at Radio 
Shack for very little money. I fabbed a mount for the panel under the 
dash using a metal backpiece and standoffs from the firewall using rod 
couplings. I cut a couple pieces of heater hose and tywrapped them to 
the sides for a chase for the wires. I  used a piece of t-bar ceiling 
wire bent in a U and attached to the bottom of the panel area as a place 
to secure the wires. I'll take some pictures and get them to our 
"pluckedchicken" to post. He's a champ at that! I did some earlier 
pictures but it's a done deal now so the finished product looks a tad 
different. 

Is that confusing enough?
