I am not really sure how long the leads should be, but my guess would be roughly the same length. the distance the wires should travel looks like it would be about the same, perhaps add 6 inches or so for safety sake. just guessing here

Another question

If you are using the ondash switch instead of the 4 stalk do you only need 2 wires and a ground ?

If so I can do the cable for a better price

the switch I am planning on using is just a window switch. so two leads and a ground should be fine, because the illumination of the switch will not be used (it would be too confusing for people to see the window diagrams on the dash).

Whata deal

It even has the arm "washer" that you have to order that is like a 18 dollar part for a piece of rubber.
