Default Where to get Wiring and stuff

I'm going to be modding my ECM harness this coming week. Where can I order factory color wires,sleeve, shrink wrap and electrical tape rated for automotive use.
Thanks in advance

McMaster-Carr has a good selection of corrugated tubing and tape, though I have never bought wire from them.

I have bought products from Waytek Wire - mostly fuse stuff, relays, etc. Everything I got was good quality. With that being said, I've never bought any of their wire before, but if it's anything like their other products, the quality will be there. The only bad thing is that they have minimum orders.

I saw somewhere you could order by the foot and in factory colors. When I find it again I will post it here.

Best place is your local junk yard. I pulled a complete harness out of a late model car for $40. Got enough wire and relays to last me quite a while.

Jegs and Summit are pretty good also.

That is quite a list there .. thanks
I also like the junk yard Idea.
What I liked about EFI connection is the ability to order 5ft at a time in factory colors.
