Replaced the whole harness when it was in having everything rusty sorted. There's not a ridiculous amount of wiring and a reasonable amount of room to thread things in, the biggest issue was getting the old one off through decades of waxoyl.

Not rewired as such but when rebuilding my '74 roadster I did label all connections and had a blown-up wiring diagram handy when re-connecting and a ready supply of fuses for mishaps! I seem to remember the ignition was the worse as I couldn't see pins where they fit the steering lock, otherwise it was fairly easy.
