Hey All
Doing a rewire of my '70 SuperBee, early August '69 build date Lynch Road, I have one original Turn Signal Switch connector and it was either brown or orange originally. I bought this car summer of '85 and the first thing I had to do was replace the Ignition Switch and connectors, both male and female, as the switch had blown up, shorted badly, and melted both sides of connector. It was too close to the Dash Harness Turn Signal Connector that it got caught up in the burn so it too was replaced from a donor car I pulled a used ign switch and connectors from. The donor connectors are natural white. What date of production did Ma Mopar stop dying the connector bodies?

And the donor cars Dash Harness Turn Signal Connector. IIRC these came out of a '70 Coronet 500.

Good to know. I worked in the wiring department of a photo machine factory 20 odd years ago, and we would dye the natural white connector bodies different colors using RIT fabric dye in a crockpot, 3 packs of any given color in a quart of water. I'll dye all mine brown.
