10 years we'll be able to pay for it the thing about this was done just like the 60s like the original cars from original molds for the body it's it's all true to to what it as it were so this is all exactly how it was done as it was original type wiring harnesses everything so what makes the harness like that era correct over something that would be done today uh because of the wrapping the gauge of the wires the ends now these are aircraft grade switches so that's why they're made that that way i mean these are high-end this isn't just off the shelf at autozone this is stuff that can be in a fighter jet or something you know it's it's they use the best of the best and like say more that aircraft technology from back then i hear leagues it was this what kind of wire is this where you get these these ring terminals they look different i couldn't tell you you'd have to ask lee you'd have to ask way nicer yeah i mean they're they're not like things you get today
