Default Need parts for rebuilding underdash harness

Have any of you rebuilt your own under dash wiring harness and/or replaced individual wires from end-to-end with the terminals? I don’t want to splice and the wires I need to replace are bad right up to the connectors anyways so splicing is not really an option. One end of the wires I need to replace is connected directly to a fuse clamp (see picture) and the other end has a special female blade terminal with a retainer prong on the backside that slides into a socket (see picture). I need the connectors/terminals and fuse clamps.

If these are available I would also like to replace the rest of the fuse clamps since they are rusty. I don’t mind doing the work and the parts if available should be fairly inexpensive. I am trying to avoid spending the $560.00 for a replacement harness. Need these parts for my 68 Firebird
Do any of you know if and where these might be available?

Mine looked like that and I had the same idea of rebuilding it. After learning that the block cost about $100, I decided to get a reproduction harness from M&H Electric Fabricators, www.wiringharness.com The spade connectors in your top two pictures are available from NAPA (GM R59 type if I remember correctly).

I agree with hammered. Get a new one from M&H. They are identical to the stock version. Better safe than sorry when it comes to an electrical short/fire ...
