Magnum and Wiring Swap
I like wiring, as long as I have schematics and time. Also have the harness out of the car helps.
What was removed from the Dakota's harness. It had power windows and mirrors and I didn't need the extra wires and connectors.
The main thing I wanted to accomplish was keeping the interior as stock looking as possible. That meant wiring the Dart's switches and connectors into the harness.
I also had to use the B250's fuse and flasher blocks. The Dakota's fuse block is much bigger and wouldn't fit where I wanted it.
Some time and harness tape later, I had this. Pretty much a plug and play harness for my Dart. Before taping it up for good, it tested it to make sure everything worked the way it should. I found a problem with how the original foot operated high beam switch was wired and fixed it before moving on.
The "new" harness going in. Also something I forgot to mention, the Dakota's firewall connection is almost the same size as the Dart's. I might look into using the Dart's connector to secure it in place better. Right now it's held in place by the center bolt. Sounds like a "not right now" problem.
