Hi guys, got some map light wiring stuff.
My issues (well, car-related issues):
My '69 came with the map light option, but the wiring to mine was butchered up pretty bad. I have found a diagram for a '68 I believe but it differs from some of the pics I have seen of original map light harnesses on eBay. I would like to know where all the wires plug in and approximate lengths so I can try to rewire mine the correct way. Also, can I bypass it entirely for a while til I figure it out, and still have my door switches and interior lights and dome work? I have a brand new dash harness in and I DO NOT want to splice it anywhere, pretty sure there would be no need to anyway. Does anyone know what style door switches should be on a '69? Mine has some with two plugs coming off of each, but my buddy's unmolested Charger has a one plug style and and his car has factory map light delete. I've got some pics attached too. Any pics you guys have would be greatly appreciated!
The top photo is my lamp, next two are from one off eBay, and the third is a separate repro light on ebay.
