Wire harness tape
Does anyone know of a local (central FL) source for the non sticky black plastic wrap used from the factory to bundle electrical wires? Auto Zone, Advance, NAPA and the chevy dealership all say no.
It is available from Paragon but jeeze

Hey bro, no I haven't but that maybe the next stop. Just seems kind silly to spend $8 plus shipping for a $2 roll of plastic tape. But just may have no option.
Thanks
Ken

Hey Rob, awesome. If your bud has any I only need maybe a 1/2 roll (assuming a whole roll would equal a regular roll of electrical tape). Hang on to it and bring it to Mel's Sunday morning. Carrie and I will be there (Gawd willing, the creek don't rise and my radiator arrives on Friday).
And for us out of area folks, where the heck is Mel's? Some directions would help just bunches. We'll either run down I-4 or across 60 whatever you guys recommend.
You da man, you da man
Ken
PS are ya hungry yet?

thanks Rick.
Hinge point is the radiator. If it arrives as promised on Friday then I'll call Friday evening and get additional directions if needed.
