I bought my new wiring harness from British Wiring when they were still in
Illinois. The company has since been sold to someone else in Pennsylvania,
but is still in business (http://www.britishwiring.com).
My harness was correct and exactly like original, including the bulb
sockets. The only thing wrong was the wires in the steering column to the
turn signal switch were laid out to be the same color as the wires coming
out of the turn signal lights. Actually, by the BMC wiring diagram the turn
signal wires go through a connector and change to a different color before
going to the switch. This caused a bit of confusion before I figured out
what they had done. When I told them about it, British Wiring said no one
had ever pointed it out before, which seems strange. I have no idea if they
ever corrected that.

Actually, now that it has been mentioned, the sockets for the
instruments was the only thing that was wrong. Must use the same
source.
