Jack,

I don't see how changing some connectors would be a massive job.

Both owners had gotten disgusted with intermittent opens, shorts etc from the stock non-plated Lucas connectors & stock fuses. Good idea, but lots of work. If you attempt this, there will be 'spare parts': you'll find the extra 10 ft of wire in the front, unconnected wires in the engine bay and other little things to add to your car's personal wiring schematic. Try to stay motivated & good luck- J Deryke
