So where do I get the wire from? I'd like to use the same colors as in the factory harness example: the right side marker and right tailights are a shared gray wire w/red tracer on a '72.

I checked the McMasters-Carr site but found doodley poop.

Suggestions?

My best,
Mike D.

Waytek is the closest you will find. Its not exactly accurate in every respect, but you will not find anything better.

I've used the British Wiring place, and their wire is high quality. The only reason to use Waytek over BW is the cost of buying enough wire to make a complete harness is quite a bit higher from BW. If all you're making are some small repairs, however, BW is the place, as they have a very small minimum.
