hmmmmmm - uninsulated terminals, odd connectors and unsorted wires......not the way mine came, but then "progress" does not always make for the best product and since I got my module and wire set several years ago, they must have cost reduced

The only insulated terminals they use are for the gauges. Everything else is bare. Actually, I prefer uninsulated w/ shrink. Better crimp & looks better.
This is for the Highway 22. Other kits may vary.



Braid is sold by the foot. You'll love this place. A hot rodders dream store. I buy all my stainless hard line & AN stuff from them. They also make up hoses or lines while you wait.

This is the way my AAW 'kit' arrived. I did the black package writing as I did the parts inventory



NO, it really wasn't a mess, it just looks that way in the 'beginning'



With the VDO gauges wired - there was a LOT more wiring after the dash was installed

The VDO gauges have special plug-in connectors which were supplied by AAW

As I am writing this I am pricing AAW kits. I am looking at the Highway 15 and 22 kits. There seems to be some variation. Lowest I found so far is $299 for the Hwy 15 and $399 for the Hwy 22. I am pretty much convinced AAW is the way to go though there are more reasonably priced makers/kits out there. The thing I do not like about the AAW kits is that they have no kit w/o their own switches, I have no need of them or any of the adapter stuff like power seat/windows, late model column or AC. Seems like waisted money for wires + parts that will get clipped or tossed in the parts bins. But maybe I can recoup some loss by reselling that stuff. The HWY 22 kit is probably overkill for my use. I like the Cassic Update kit but its WAY to much money for me and again too much is included that I will not use.

Thanks steve looked through there web sight and there is a couple of things I need right now so I am going to run up there tomorrow. been retired about 3 mo. sure is great to have time to get back my hot rods agean and be able run around any time I want no more 60 hrs. a week. thanks again ......ted

Did you give AAW a call? They were willing to supply or delete almost anything electrical when I purchased mine - and it ended up a basically a custom version - and with probably 250' surplus wire because of that. I've used for other wiring after washing the markings off.

Yes, I talked to Betty, She said they area package and they will not omit components .BUT they would put together something. Which ended up basically a Classic Update kit for MORE $$$ than the Hwy kits I was looking at - passed

Like I said above - progress is our..... (oh crap, my many years at GE came back to haunt me again)

What ever you get from AAW, there is always a swap meet for you to sell surplus parts

Thats what I was thinking as I have a running add on CL to get rid of just that kind of stuff, Leftovers and extra's.
