The first thing you see when you open the box
Oh dear... what have i gotten myself into........
The kit comes with all the connectors and rubber gourmets that you need... but the connectors look a bit gimpy... i think i would reuse the car's original connectors if they are still in good condition or buy new ones... if i can....
All wires are colour coded to the original specs... heck even the insulation is colour coded...
and it already has the female connectors attached to it... no fuss just plug and play.... i hope.
The manual is pretty ok but not as detailed as i wld like it to be... or maybe i just dont understand it... like i said... do i know what i have gotten myself into?... will i be able to wire the bug myself?.....
.
The last picture on the right is the wiring schematics of a 1961 bug... i suppose its about the same as a 65 but that ok... i do have the the 65 schematics .... in colour some more...
.
Just one more thing... in no way am i encouraging anybody to rewire their bug on their own. Please be warned that badly done wiring can lead to short circuit or worse... fire.... You wouldnt want your pride and joy to go up in smoke would you........ So please be very careful and patient or request the aid of a professional.

Those connectors seem ok in the pic. Maybe you will like them more once assembled.
