I don't think You will find the "tiger" striped wire anywhere except in complete VERY EXPENSIVE
wiring looms...
Someone was making these in Australia a few years ago...
You could use a LHD one from the USA and add wires to the Right Hand part of the dash
but that would defeat the purpose....
I just used the different colored wires available from Dick Smiths Jaycar etc...
and labelled each end with masking tape and wrote on it what the wire was for...
I used a seperate wire for everything, so I used many many more wires than the originals...
but the fuses are still the same....
I also added a few relays for wipers, driving lamps, Ignition, starter motor
Best of Luck
Lee

Thanks Al... thought that was what you meant... they are a spiral tracer colour on the wire.
I have seen these in auto elec places before tho due to the vast array of optional colours would be hard to find exactly what you want.
vinwire is probably your best chance as they do complete looms and modify them to suit your needs with full original colour coding etc.. at least
that's what the guy told me when i rang.

You might find a Bay Kombi being wrecked pull the loom from tere in one piece and you will have heaps of wire the same colour you need
