Author Topic: 66 Mustang Headlight Harness Holdup (Read 1259 times)

I ordered a new headlight harness assembly. The firewall connector is different on the Repro. Has anybody come across this? My car has a total of 8 connectors; 6 male, 2 female. The female connectors are set vertical on my 66 mustang, but are horizontal on the repro. Attached are pictures. My car has a background of the dirty valve cover. The Repro still with plastic bag. Where can I buy the correct harness? I don't want to cut up the new harness and splice the old connector on.

I've had a couple of folks over the years complain about the same thing. The plug with the "vertical" female bullets is for the engine gauge harness; the horizontal female bullets are for the headlight harness. Once I explained the difference, I heard a "duh" and then a sheepishly given thanks. It is a common mistake.
