Thanks Stuart--good analogy. I found the right guage and right color wire at the FLAPS, but the price was through the roof, and much more length than I needed. I was considering McMaster-Carr but they didn't offer enough color selection.

So, does anyone out there have a good source for automotive wires (preferably by the foot) of varying sizes and colors? A few places I've seen require you to buy a LOT of it.

I'm just not at the point where I feel I need a whole new wiring harnass, and it would be nice to keep the original guage and color.
