Upper Console wiring help
Hey guys, I got a new upper console for my 85 TA that I want to install to replace the plain dome light, and I have the console and wiring harness but I'm unsure exactly where the current dome light wiring is going to.
The headliner is out so no worries there, and I can see the dome light wiring running down the drivers side of the windshield, but from there I'm not sure where it's going to. Anyone have any tips on installing this before I start pulling things up?

Rather than running the harness down the A pillar, you might consider simply cutting and splicing at the overhead console. If you haven't seen the following link, it might prove useful:
