Welcome to the forum. I don't know your reason for going with an aftermarket harness but have you thought about pulling one from a vehicle in the salvage yard. I took one from a 78 w/AC for my 77 wo/AC and the only difference was the electrical connector for the blower motor. I did this in preparation for installing factory AC into my non-AC cab. Everything was the same so I just used my original harness(sorry, don't have the other one anymore).

Instructions for installation are very straight forward and easy to follow. I used some pieces from my old harness such as the cargo light wire, door jamb switch connectors and some wiring for A/C. I also had some factory wiring diagrams along with the ones supplied by Centech just to make sure I had everything right.
