I have in Corvette's several times. Nice product. My only complaint in recent years, is how difficult it is to install the gauge cluster sockets. REALLY stiff!

Depends on what you are wanting. If it is a concours correct, Legends level restoration none of them are quite there. Little things like the socket colors, the "christmas tree" barb clip colors (really, they can't get this right?), wire gage and type (rare instances) are incorrect. Workmanship is usually very good. I've had to swap out many small parts from my old harness to try and get it good enough. I guess I am just too picky with my restoration.

Not too picky, I also swap out connectors, after a quick oven cleaner cleaning.

I have had great results with the full harness kit from Lectric for my 67 Camaro. The fit is outstanding.
