Looking to move the SMEC inside the car, and I've only seen www.riwire.com (http://www.riwire.com) for OEM wire colors. Does anyone know if the OEM plugs are still available, or would I have to pull them at the JY and clean them up?

I am currently doing the underhood wiring on my omni and am cleaning up some of the connectors. I am also using some of the weather-pack connectors to replace some of the stock ones.
As for SMEC stuff, not sure what is out there. I am using the painless high temp wire on mine, mainly because I have the small omni engine bay. Figured can't hurt.

Painless catalog, page 57 has all the wire they stock. Could be an option, provided all our colors are there. Not that it matters, just keeping everything consistent with FCMs would be a nice touch...

go with a TXL spec wire instead of the stock stuff. The TXL has a broader temp range and is really flexible. The stock wire only has 7 strands in it too.

If you arent too crazy about wire colors you could just buy a wiring kit for megasquirt. You should have pretty much ever wire you need and they are labeled along their whole length.

That is a great idea. I did it the old fashioned way and bought the individual wire colors and ran them. Still need to get a few more color combos so I don't end up with 12 white wires and 9 blue wires....LOL.

Heres a limited selection of the oem connectors. http://starparts.chrysler.com/starlibrary/marketing/conkits/index.htm Not much for our cars but for certain ones like the idle speed motor and solenoids its not bad.
