Excellent!

Makes a great build even greater. Now we need lots of pictures!
Welcome to the 21st century I think you will like it.

BTW, the wiring supplier for extra TXL cables is Waytekwire.com. Same supplier as the kit.

Cheers!
Carl

Wow, This car keeps getting better and better with age.
Scary as hell though seeing such a nice cars wiring hanging as such.

Im guessing with the great support here its like having an Electrical Engineering group on your payroll.

It's a bit daunting but I'm not alone. Here's the lineup: Carl (FLYVMO) will lead the way with experience installing this Canbus wiring system on his 928. Herman K knows these cars well is local and offers his much needed insight. Jay the president of InfinityBox has given me his personal contact info. He says he wants to be involved along the way and has been right there for us. Infinity Box also has an excellent website with installation manuals, video tutorial's, etc. May need to lean on the usual experts here, re: Alan, Stan, Sean, etc. so think we have it covered. Pulled most of the interior today and almost ready to go. T

Keep in mind that it was crappy wiring that was the primary cause for the Apollo 1 fire, and a voltage mis-match that caused the Apollo 13 explosion.
