Info on 67-68 harness from Painless...

I wonder if their Mustang specific harness will have the option of extra circuits? If not, the universal harness sounds like the way to go.

Steelhorse, go custom. If I went this route,(and I may), I could locate the fuse box in the floor console. There is probably room up under the dash though. It would really be cool if the wires were long enough to locate it in the trunk so you would have easy access to fuses and ease the wiring process! Did you ask them about that?!!!

I just got through rewiring every piece of wire in my car with repro harnesses. Then, instead of tapping into the stock wires, I got a Painless 7-circuit auxiallary fuse block to wire in all my extras (gauges, radio, fuel pump, etc). It was super-easy to install, and runs off a 10 gauge wire direct from the solenoid (with a 30-amp circuit breaker in between). There is one wire that goes to the stock fuse panel that is attached with a fuse clip that triggers the ignition only circuits (block has 3-always hot and 4-ignition hot circuits).

C'ya!

I am in the process (still) of putting an 18-circuit universal painless kit in my 67. One of the options you can get for that kit is the trunk mounted fuse panel. I got that option plus the trunk mounted battery and solenoid. The painless kit is of outstanding quality and each wire is well labelled. I only have two complaints...one, the manual is way to generic and you are going to have to figure most of it out yourself...two, when any manufacturer says their kit is "universal" that really means it is not a direct fit for "anything"

Here's a pic of my fuse box:


I had little choice but to use a universal kit due to all the things I have that are not stock. In fact the painless kit did not even provide for some of them so I made this "brain center" thing to handle all the relays and junction blocks:
