Dude, that's scary...I would never dare do any wiring whatsoever
without my Bentley open.  I had to take my Bentley upstairs to read at
bedtime a few nights (my wife thought I was nuts) to really learn the
diagrams, and you know what, they're not that bad.  In fact I have come
to love them.  The explanation section before the actual diagrams (for
the 16V manual, anyway) is worth your time.

Aaaaah!  beer + wiring - Bentley - experience = smoke, usually!  oh
well, decent beer, anyway.

Not bored, insomnia.  But I'd bet at least 7 of the 10 watercooleds
I've owned had hacked harnesses somewhere, be it from PO alarms, cruise
controls, stereos, whatever.  BTDT!  Good work, btw, a great sense of
accomplishment, no?
