I've been looking around and have found two companies that make wiring harnesses for the Durant.

I have a 1930 6-14. Rhode Island Wiring only offers a kit for the 1931 6-14, would this work in the 1930 model? YNZ offers a 1930 kit but for $200.00 more. Why the huge price difference? Does anyone have experience with either company?

Thanks
Shaun

Hi Shaun......

I have used both companies. They are both very accomidating. They will modify their harnesses for a fee. The 614 harness should work for either year. Main differences can be with or without fender lights. Can add for electric fuel pump and turn signals etc.

Are you pricing the same thing from both companies? There is a main lighting harness and an engine harness.

I'm going to use a Rhode Island harness on a couple of my cars. The 614, 617, 619 use very similar wiring.

Hi Shaun,
I bought a wiring harness for my 1929 model 60 touring. I bought it from Harness Unlimited. They are at P.O.box 435, Wayne, PA 19087. Phone: 610-688-3998. I was very pleased with the harness and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Durant harness.
