I've got the ground wire (pink) singled out to it's grounding lug on the left inner fender, and I'm going to solder in the 3 black coil leads just downstream of the large connector that attaches to the brain behind the battery.

Once in place, I'll cut the original section at the point it enters the cam cover and enclose the new wires in a length of split plastic loom cover that is common on US cars.

I'll finish up after work today, should have it together this evening.

you will find that every single wire of your old harness is corroded/ will corrode in the near future...i would recommend against wasting a perfectly good harness and soldering it into a crumbling one....

just change-over whatever plugs are different and use the new one.....
