I am getting ready to dive into rewire of my 968 and 928.
In the past I have found myself buying wire as I needed it. This has proven to be costly.
Does anyone know the wire sizes that are used on the 968?
Thnx
John

I have a couple of similar projects coming up and I found a great source for wire, at the pick-in-pull.
Friend of mine and I went to the local and found a few late model BMW's, Mercedes etc... I prefer cars with a trunk battery since they will have a very long main power wire.
I walked out of there with 5+ complete harnesses for less than $100. I also had a few dozen various connectors that usually sell for $4+ each.
My last trip I discovered a pair of hybrids. They have a nice long triple power wire running the length of the car. They charged me $10 for both harnesses.

Yup, that is a great resource. I am an electrician, so when I have down time I will rebuild my own. However, finding the correct terminals and connectors is an issue.
I guess I can just pull most any olde German built and get lucky.
