Actually no it doesn't replace all the under hood wiring. It replaces the injector wiring, fan wiring, Battery Terminal wiring, and if equiped the ABS wiring. I have the DVD which gives a run down of all the wiring harnesess as well as the letter. I'll post this stuff up tonight if I can find my DVD.

I have the zip file at work with all the information....PM me and I'll send it to everyone who needs it!
It has the instructions, parts, time required and pretty much anything else you can think of.
My suggestion to anyone with a 95-97 is go take it to the dealer now!! Find a cracked wire somewhere...anywhere...and make them replace them all....show them the pics from this post. I can tell you from experience that once the wires are cracked...they will lose their insulation in a very short amount of time....especially now that it is warming up.
Good Luck everyone.......

ATTENTION:
The price for the wiring harness *kit* (see the instructions) is not bad--a local dealer quoted me $731.00 for the one for the '95 V6 with 5-speed and ABS...
If just the engine harness is $400...for $300 more you can get ALL of the harnesses...that's actually a good deal.

Compared to what I suspect the harnesses cost individually (which is probably upwards of $1500), it's not bad.

Yea...the sick part is that if it were a GM there's no shortage of places to buy the connectors/terminals/crimp tools to make your own replacement harness (which really isn't that hard when you've got one to work from), mainly because GM gets ALL of their stuff from Delphi/Packard Electric.
