wires - what did you do with them and how did you do it?

[ChevySSR]

Hello everyone

I have a lot of left over wires where the console used to be, under the dash and in the engine compartment.
I decoded RPO codes and have all of the harnesses listed in the special services manual identified.
Now, the question is, how did you use any of them?

so far I rewired Wiring Provisions for Horn/Siren Circuit - SEO 6J4 to make the horn work.
rewired Emergency Vehicle RoofLight - SEO TRW to power the red ceiling light.

I would like to repurpose Wiring Provisions for Vehicle Grille Lamps, Flasher, and Speaker/Siren - SEO 6J3 to install fog lights and power them.

could you share your experience and ideas on how to use the harnesses?

thank you!

The GM Upfitter guide will give you any idea of what they are and where they lead. There are specific versions for each year.

thanks for the document, I can trace the wires, just trying to figure out a good civilian use for the harnesses. I hate to see so much good wire go to waste.

Almost anything where you need DC. I’ve been involved in ham radio for decades, wire is good. Getting through the firewall is always a challenge, so having that done is a godsend.

I have strobes on my rigs. As visibility for dusty forest roads.

yep, I agree, thanks for the idea, I have a CB radio I have not used in a while, might as well wire it in!
