Source for color coded wire

I'm looking to do some re-wiring and I want to maintain the color codes. Does anyone know a source for small quantities of color coded wire? It would be ideal if I could get colors and tracers in colors that are close to the original Porsche colors.

Look for their dune buggy, or VW beetle kits in order to get the right lengths.

I have it made for me in reels for the harnesses I build.
Email me for info as I can usually part with small quantities.
How much do you need?

Dennis. Maybe You could put some kits with maybe 10 ft. (or more ?) of each (most ?) color coded wire to go with our cars and sell them for enough profit to make it worthwhile but still affordable. I'm sure there would be plenty interested. I am finishing some refreshing of the wiring on my car & could have used a bunch of it.

Sounds great, but,...
There are over 20 different almost 20 foot long wires of differing color codes and wire gauge in just the through body harness from the front fuse panel and gauges to the rear fuse panel and light sockets etc.
they also changed them about every 3 years. In color codes and even wire size (gauge)

Just go over a schematic and record a list of all the different wire combinations on one page and you will see what I mean.

Better off to just contact me with what you need and go from there.

There's also Rhode Island Wiring.
I've never used them but someone else on this board suggested them.
