What do you guys think? I can get a killer deal on one that's the reason I am asking

You can make it work, but the side markers, park signals, and rear taillights, wiper motor switch connections will be different, plus the harness is designed for key column switch, not key in dash switch. The rest is pretty much the same. Unless its free, the extra work will out way the cost of buying the correct one.

I dont have side marker lights I shaved those. I did put in 69 Parking lights in my lower valance and I am running a DSE Wiper motor and Harness. I guess just the key would be the problem

Tail lights are red and I have custom LED Tail lights going in.

Sound better haha

Key is not a big issue, just have to remove the plug and relocate the wires to a dash style key switch. I assume you did not shave the hole in the firewall?

Hole is still there. Thanks for the help.

The DSE wiper integrates pretty easy into the AAW harness. I can post some pics up in a couple of days (out of town on business). I could scan the ignition switch directions to you if needed.

AAW to PSI Coversion Install. LS3 T56

Any Tricks I need to know about?

Harness is in the car now I am wiring it up, anything tips would be greatly appreciated.

All you are really integrating from the psi harness to the chassis harness is the key on wire (red) if I remember correctly. The PSI harness has the plug for t56, the rest of the wires should just be for your gauges and a ground wire. My PSI harness was very simple, just had to de-loom it to extend the MAF wire, they send a extra long harness so you can mount it just about anywhere except the trunk.

Where does this "Pink" Wire go to (BAT location on coil) ?

Do I need this wire? Since I am running an LS3?

[130fe]

No, you won't need that one or the white one next to it. I have an LS3 with the dakota digital VHX gauges and used their OBD2 interface to get the tach and water temp. I removed several of the wires and used the slots for other components- Oil pressure, VSS and check engine light (off of my GMPP harness) and reverse lights wires. I also wired the DSE wiper motor through the bulkhead. I did not use the larger red wire going from the alternator to the starter, my GMPP harness already had it. The thing I like about the AAW classic update harness is that you can customize it for your particular application. I think I only have 1 or 2 open slots now between the engine and front light harness plugs.

I have a PSI Conversion Harness Do you think I would need the Dakota Digital still for the Tach and Speedo? I know the harness has a Tach wire not sure how I go about hooking that up to Autometer guages

[130fe]

You shouldn't need the Dakota Digital stuff, I am only using it because of their gauges. I believe that harness has most of the outputs except for maybe the water temp, fuel gauge and possibly the oil pressure. You can get pretty creative in using some of the used slots for other things. Here is the bulkhead pinout diagram that I used and maybe it will give you some ideas. If you can't understand my chicken scratch just let me know LOL The mirror pins are for a new style rear view mirror with the temp display. Just remember when you change the pinouts on the outside (engine side) to make sure you modify the fuse harness side also. This is best accomplished with the dash harness not installed...... believe me :goofy: Sorry for the sideways photo, it won't upload right..
