I started on the install of the American Autowire classic update kit. So far I'm how the install is going. You will need to open up the firewall hole for the new panel. Make sure to order the kit up prior to painting your firewall, I was able to do the surgery without any issues though. The lower hole basically is at the edge of the trim plate which I had to notch slightly. I started by mounting the fuse panel and wiring up the dash. The kit comes with a dash quick disconnect for the lights/gauges which made for ease of installation. I placed the dash on the workbench and started wiring away. AAW loomed the dash kit where the wires needed to go with zip ties. So far I have the dash wired, engine bay almost completed and front light kit run. The kit has an accessory pig tail for future upgrades so you don't have wires tied up everywhere. You will also need to notch/modify the firewall pad to clear the new fuse panel. The light switch hole in the dash had to be notched at the 10:00 position to allow for the connector to slip on...no big deal. More to follow.........
