    thanks!

      Best bet if you're trying to do a 'minimalist' harness is don't use the 'big' wiring diagram, use the individual circuit diagrams in the factory service manual.

      Truthfully, there's little reason to 'strip' the harness as there's really not that many 'extra' wires... and leaving them gives you options down the road.
