Hey Guys,

Yes RF 44's harness that came with the car had some serious issues. Ron had not yet unwrapped the harness from its original packaging. As I looked over the instructions that came with the car and laid out the harness on my workbench it was apparent that something was not right. The harness did not match up to the schematic which Ron had neatly organized in a folder. At first I thought there were missing parts to the harness but after scratching my head for a week or so I called Herschel. He told me that my car and several others had their harnesses made by a different vendor, and those harnesses had some issues. He asked me to send the complete Harness and fuse panel to him and he would look at it and forward it to Oz if need be, which he ultimately did. It took about 4 months but I got a brand new harness and fuse panel and a new CD at no charge. This was only days before Ron posted the news about RF's demise. Anyway, I have not yet had time to see if this new harness is correct or not but I'm assuming it's ok.
