We’re beginning the installation of a new wiring harness in our 1971 Super Beetle. In this portion we’ll get a new main wiring harness pulled into the car along with some additional wires that we’ll need for our aftermarket gauges. Follow along as we get started with one of the most feared portions of a restoration and see how simple it is, just take it one wire at a time.
