Several months ago Mopar Collector Guide had a wiring harness for the early A advertised in their new parts section. It was suppose to help with dimming lights. I had the web site saved but lost it when my computer crashed. Anyone know which issue or better yet the web site for the vendor?

You can do the same thing with a couple of ISO relays.

Along with that, I'd recommend SPST 5-terminal relays. They come with two power terminals, so you can power left/right sides off of separate terminals instead of splicing.

Thanks, I know about the ISO relays. What I'm talking about is harness that enhaces the stock harness. I can't find the web site or the MCG that it was in.

Looking at the pics I don't see anything for $90 that can't be homemade for $20.

That bypasses the amp gauge with a large wire (likely 8 ga) and likely relays something else in the system such as the ignition/voltage regulator wire.

So, to pull this off yourself, you'll need:
8 ga wire
12 ga fuse link for charging wire

I don't think you need to relay the ign but I do suggest relaying the headlights.

My car has the original charging wire connected to the starter relay as well for a double current path to the dash. I also relayed and spliced my headlights as in the first diagram (I only used 1 fuse holder since both circuits don't run simultaneously on a Duster) and my headlights are a lot brighter...running a square back alternator that is either 65 or 78 amps. I just added a volt gauge and everything in the car works much better now.

I'm sure you are right but right now time is more important. It's the little things on my project that are eating me up.A kit for me at this point would be ideal. Plug n Play.

Everyone of their kits are out of stock, no time savings there.
