More Details (was Re: IML: ReWiring)

[Jeff Cantor <jcantor791@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to everyone for the shared experience and pointers on my  
question of rewiring a fully assembled car.  The reason I'm  
considering this - and need to deal with at least some of it - is  
that I have wiring that I can see under the hood that has lost most  
if not all of its insulation or has been replaced by someone who  
obviously was only concerned with completing the circuit and not what  
was safest, looked best, or most appropriate.  Second, there are a  
few things that aren't working like the courtesy lights on the front  
corners of the seat, the front door interior light switches, and the  
heater blower.  Therefore, even if I don't do the WHOLE car, I will  
have to do quite a bit just to address these issues.

One specific question: does the wiring under the hood connect  
directly to the instrument panel?  In other words, if I were to buy  
the engine harness, will that necessitate dealing with under the  
dash?  I see that as the most difficult due to the stand on head  
factor and the shear number of wires.

Thanks,
Jeff
