While I am upgrading my 65 coronet’s wiring I have a couple of upgrades I plan on doing.

Trunk release is taken care of.

Need help with the trunk light.

Any one have a picture of the trunk light in their car?

Thanks

I know its easy to just order new wiring but I wanted to do a couple of things different. Started to rewire my 65 Dodge coronet and when I’m done with it I’ll be rewiring my 66 Valaint. My plans are to update the engine bays wires and the under dash. …

So the 66-72 small bolt 8 3/4 has a width of 57 1/8″
The same housing with big bolt pattern axles has a width of 57 13/16″
Now the 73 and up big bolt 8.25/7.25 axle has a 56 3/4” width.
So the difference between big bolt pattern 8 3/4’s is 1 1/16″

From my measurements the 8.25/7.25 width is as narrow a 8 3/4 can be made with out any other modifications allowing a 15×7 wheel to fit a dart swinger/scamp.

Why are people narrowing housings and not getting the maximum benefit from their…
