rear bumper harness

Post by dangina » Sat Aug 16, 2014 2:27 am

who makes them? I bought all new wiring for the car but forgot about the wiring in the rear bumper for the taillights and passenger side marker. I have the wiring that goes to this harness but i can't seem to find the one for the rear taillights...

No one makes them. IDK if someone can but on the market already done, no. Companies make most of the harnesses but not all. You have to reuse yours or find one in better shape.

the rear lights all plug together to make one harness and it is built into the tail lights. the sockets for those are made into the light housing and not meant to come apart. from time to time m and h that makes all the other harnesses for our cars have took the time to take peoples light housings in and remake the harness starting with new sockets installed and built back into the housings however when i tried to get it done they turned me down and said they had enough work at that time and only did that sort of thing when they were very slow. i was able to find a used set of tail lights with the intact unaltered origanal wiring still in great shape and i used those in place of the ones that came with my car because they had a couple wires that had been spliced and several very rusty sockets with broke bulb bases in them.

Thanks for the answers guys. I may just splice on all new wiring. My harness has a bunch of half ass splices and im missing the end that plugs into the rear harness

I was at the Columbus show a couple years ago talking with the guy from Evans, he said he would not make me a set for my 73, even though I purchased a couple of harnesses from him. He really didn't give me a straight answer, just said no. I got luckly and found a very clean harness I could use with good sockets.

That is promising news! Hopefully someone will post photos and reviews of these harnesses if they try them out.

There was a thread about this company over on Moparts, I just can't remember what it said though. You might go there, and look it up.

Not sure maybe i missed something but i don't see that the 71 listing is for a b body. Could be an a body or most likely for an e body since more items are made for the e body

E-bodies used a one piece rear wiring harness. The only '71 Plymouth with a 2pc rear harness, would be the Satellite line.
