What should I use for wiring on my baja?
L.R.S.
Probably need more info for a good answer. What motor? VW? Making it street legal? Or just a off-road play car? I'm doing a '66 Baja with a 4.3 V6 Chevy. It'll be street legal so I bought a $40 sandrail style wiring harness to hook up stock head, tail, brake lights. But for the gauges and, HID's and fans I'll make my own harness.

You could always go with one of these and just modify it...

Try Painless they have complete harness kits for cars that are universal.

If you are going to do your own wiring you need to do a LOT of homework. The Painless kits may help you but still you need to educate yourself on wiring and how to do it properly... otherwise hire someone to do it. Every electrical item needs to have the draw calculated and the wire size figured out. Then you need to decide if each item needs a circuit breaker, fuse, relay, etc. These things are really not that hard to figure out but you need to do the research (use Google) to figure it out.

Or... pay someone that knows how to do it.

There's a ton of products and info here that would be worth your time to peruse. http://www.12voltguy.com/web/
Also, the Painless harnesses are very nice and easy to work with. You can usually get a better price from Summit.
