About to start the installation of a new wiring harness...complete rebuild....no old one to follow!
Any suggestions...other than what brand of Vodka to drink...where to start, connector kit, easy to read diagram
any actual hands-on history.....doesn't look like fun!?!

Assuming it's a B, you'll need this:

Above all, take your time and ~enjoy~ the task!

Also, be sure to stock up on plenty of dielectric grease to lube and protect the connections.

Having a bottle of Maker's Mark handy will help... :D

Other than that, we can help as you go with where the wire runs go. Or find someone local to you with a similar car and take a few photos for reference. Even the later MGBs are not too hard to sort out.

DaveR, welcome aboard!

And as Mickey asks, what car/year is the subject?

Smirnoff, BTW. The quantity will be determined by the year and model you've got. :smirk:


EDIT: MGA!! Easy-peasy! One case of vodka oughta do it. ...and get yerself a ferrett. :jester:
