Hi,
I thought about a short drive tonight but it would have to be w/o taillights, horn or turn signals working, and realized that if the dimmer switch failed I would suddenly be driving my nice convertible without headlights on a winding road in complete darkness.
If the current "basketcase wiring job" is gone through and returned to OEM and works, is that safe and reliable? Or should I bail on it now, and start fresh with a well-designed aftermarket (like painless style) harness that is devoid of the dimmer switch/turn signal design flaws?
Let me know your thoughts. This is a beautiful convertible, daily driver not a show car.
My budget for a fix is $1000 max. Trust me, every wire in this car needs to be traced.
