I've come to the conclusion that my car needs a complete rewire.

There are so many choices in aftermarket wiring kits but they all seem pretty much the same.

Is one brand better than another? Why?

Thanks in advance.

The old standbys who have been in business for years on these are:

Narragansett Reproductions And Rhode Island Wiring.

I bought mine from the first and was very pleased.

I only hope that your Caddy is not "too new" and that reproductions are
not being made yet.  Doesn't hurt to ask!

Good luck.

American Autowire does a lot of the newer stuff that Narragansett and Rhode Island won't do because it's too new . . .

Ali, I have used Rhode Island Wiring a number of times and their wiring is identical to factory specs and perfect fit. Chet 25441

I used Rhode Island Wiring several years ago for my 68 Fleetwood and their harness was exact in every way to the factory harness. I was able to lay their harness over the original harness and unplug each original connector and connect the new harness connector one by one then simply lifted the original harness out.
