Call it OCD, but...

Ok I bought this 84 Firebird off of craigslist... so you all know where this is going. He was going to do a V8 swap, and started wiring, but good lord, different wire colors going to other wire colors and he couldn’t remember how it was hooked up, so anyways I started ripping though the interior and I started to cry after I saw what looked like the wiring harness. So after a lot of thinking I’m leaning towards rewiring the car, the whole car front to back, I know there is a bit of work, but then I know what everything will go to. But have anybody used or recommended something from Painless? I saw the guys for Extreme 4X4 use it on the crazy suburban thing and looked pretty good system. I was kind of thinking this kit http://www.painlessperformance.com/w...rchField=10201 I think that the car had power locks, and windows. Any suggestions or recommendations are very welcomed

You may be able to get a whole harness made specifically for your car from a member. I think that would be easier than a universal kit.
