The wiring is bare in alot of places. Can I install a new wiring harness properly as the truck sits, fully assembled? Who sells the best wiring harness available?

Maybe yellow with a red tracer or black etc. Sometimes you can pick up the colour from old harness, behind insulation etc. Usually they are well numbered, and theres not that many wires. regards
