Wow, great opportunity and perfect timing.

Same question. Do you have any recommendations for upgrades or improvements while I’m cleaning up the PO’s disaster of a rat’s nest. Besides slapping him silly. I can be OCD. Thank you for your help.

Do you recommend any improvements or upgrades while I’m cleaning up the mess of an electrical system? I was wanting to reinstall the NATO slave. I thought heard it could be used for powering things with an inverter. That could be handy in the woods and other dumb places I find myself. Thank...

Where would I look to get wiring harnesses?
