Do not buy anything from Evens, I forget the best maker, but they can be had from Year One.

M&H is so far the best.

Maybe, maybe not. Some they have in stock, others are on backorder and you can wait for months. I ordered 3 harnesses for my 70 Challenger with a 30% off deal a little over a year ago. 2 arrived within a week, the other, came nearly 3 months later.
No updates from YO while I was waiting for the 3rd.
I ordered one harness from Megaparts last summer and had it in days. Their customer service is A-1 so at least if a harness will be backordered, I'm sure Roy and Jamie will let the customer know that upfront and give ETAs for how long the delivery will be delayed.

Yearone bought the licensing rights from Chrysler to manufacture the harnesses through M&H. Megaparts sells the harnesses to, but they bought them from Yearone.

Thank you! I realized on Saturday that I was missing a wiper harness and backup harness, saved 30% with the code.

I had some bad crimps and a wrong size wire in the past from Bill Evans. I bought some M&H harnesses for my GTX and 67 Coronet recently and really was not that impressed. I'm calling Bill this week to get some taillight harnesses for my 65 Fury.

We have had bad crimps / miswires on several recent harnesses from M + H in the last couple of years as well. I am not suggesting either vendor is better just posting an FYI beer

I agree TJP. I just learned from what other people was said in the past in that all of my harnesses from M&H I/we checked the connections and wires. With that, I found a couple of wires not seated the best in the plastic connectors.
