edit, I might of added more than that but I did end up with more than I needed.

Not the sensor wires,Tom. I'm lengthening the harness itself.

Ran out of time today. I'll get to it sometime this week. EVERY day seems busy. I need a few more days off.

Yeah Tom, I found that out a long time ago. I cut 4 wires in the same place, and when I connected them all together, heat shrink, then wrapped them, it was ugly. As much as i HATE electrical stuff, I do enjoy soldering and things like extending wires. That's all good. Trouble shooting...well, that sux !!!

If you need new sensors, you can buy them with longer sensor wires.  I have the part numbers.... if needed.

I have new sensors already. I've had them for about three years, never took them out of the box (Jerry, you know how I am about that), and forgot them until recently when I found them by accident. Nice surprise.

I dig around here and there and find a few good deals. The only part, right now, I'm looking for is an NOS driver side signal light (next to the head light...outboard side). Most of the other stuff I want I have located, but need to get the fundage.
