wiring sux, well not just wiring, it could be this heat and the fact that the mosquitos are out now and bugging the crap out of me. BUT there is a pus side, i almost have all the old wiring out. then in goes the fusebox and im going to wire in the back section, meaning the tailights and whatnot, then call it a day and do as much as i ca the next day.

Yeah... it definately sucks working under the dash with no air and 200% humidity we've been having.

Go to Wallyworld and buy the biggest fan 50 bucks will get you and keeping it blowing inside the car while you're working... about the only way to keep the skeeters off...

Are you going to use a factory repop harness or something like a painless setup to rewire it?

If you are going to use a Painless or some similar setup, make sure you save all of your connectors from your old harness. Or at least those that are still in good serviceable condition.

Was the Painless harness specifically for your year/model mustang, or was it one of the street rod types?

Sounds like it should fix your heater wiring issues for you then....
