EVO 8 ACD retrofit

Hi all,
I am restoring an Evo 8 and came across an ACD T-case for it. I already have:
ACD Pump
ACD Control Unit
ACD Switch

Aside from the hard line from the ACD T-case to Pump unit and the ACD cluster what wiring harness('s) do I need in order to successfully run and operate ACD.
I understand that I will need the underdash harness from a 9 or later 8 with ACD that connects the ACD Control Unit to the cluster and switch but are there any other tips for integrating the ACD electrical harness into an 2003 Evo 8 chassis. Anybody have harness or subharness part numbers associated with ACD?

Thank you all

Geez, I think the fuse boxes are differently equipped and underhood harness also has ACD crap in it...but I dunno for sure, look at that stuff though. You got the shop manual from Limitless/Evoscan site?

Hey ostesky I really enjoyed your restoration thread. Good work.
Yes I have access to the electrical manual and have been combing through it. http://www.evoscan.com/manuals/Evo8/...l%20Manual.pdf
I'm having a hard time getting harness part numbers from it though, maybe i'm not looking at it in enough detail.
I suppose is there anyone on here that has done this before and has any tips they would want to share?

The manuals don't really have part numbers. This will be a much better resource for hunting down that kind of stuff.

While we're on the top of parts, do you know of any good sources for electrical connector pins? I've got some custom harnesses to make that utilize OEM connectors and would rather buy new pins than splice pigtails.
