Does Painless Performance Make a Kit?

Need to rewire my 92 camaro. Need ignition,turn signals,hazards,head lights, power windows,dome light and power hatch.

Motor is controlled by a stand alone Holley Commander 950 ECM and the speedo and tach will be autometer. Does Painless have either a universal wiring kit or a model specific kit to get the funtions I do need?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Painless only appear to have complete kits for Gen 1 cars

Something like this universal kit wired for a GM column should work for a Gen 3
( just work out how many fused circuits you need )
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PRF-10201/
and you need to install your own connectors ( most commonly spade terminals ) for the items you are wiring.

Many other quality kits out there at better pricing than Painless

That 18 circut universal kit is what I had in mind, I just wanted sombody to confirm it was the correct kit to use. I was hoping sombody on here had done a complete resto of their car and needed to rewire it like I do. Just looking for some personal experience.

had a chance to call painless today to see what they thought would be right for my application and was surprised when the tech said they had nothing for my car and that the 18 circut would not work, but he could not answer why not? Are there any other options?

Painless PN 10201 will work just fine in our cars. I am installing one right now (as you saw in my post lol). Due to our cars having a lot more electrical circuits than your average muscle car, It's not just a plug and play deal, but I don't find it too bad so far at all. With that said, I am installing one now and you can check out my build thread to see how it completely plugs in.

I will warn you and say that it is not a 1 day job. You are going to need all your factory harnesses to re-use various plugs and in some cases you can use the entire factory circuit (like on mine, I kept my entire heater blower fan circuit and just plugged the one wire painless gives you into it to power it up.) Also, I will most likely need to custom wire my rear deffogger wiring as well as the hatch pull down motor which shouldn't be all that hard. Anyways, you can check my build thread out here....

I have a bunch of wiring pics up so check them out and see if thats what your looking for. I'm in the middle of wiring now so all the stuff is on the last page or 2 of my build thread. Hope this helps.
