Installing turn signal wiring in my 56. There was no wiring installed when I got the car. Is there something that goes inside the steering column to protect the wiring? It seems like the wires will wear thru over time as the car is steered. Right now the wires just run from the turn signal switch, thru the column and exits through a hole about 2/3 of the way down the column. Thanks for any help on this.

Location: NorCal		If the wires are installed correctly, there is no contact with anything that would wear them through.

Dick: I have documented the 56 Dodge turn signal and horn wiring in a few posts with a few words and lots of photos that I hope you will find useful:

I will be mapping my 57 Dodge Steering column to a generic wiring harness/fuse block... I have started... and Im using a generic headlight switch.
