Couple of suggestions: 1) I would solder rather than just crimp the ends. We use crimped Deutsch connectors at work and they are pretty good, but I still solder mine, whether they are standard crimps, Sure Seal, or Deutsch. 2)The weave covering that you see on newer harness is put on by a "weaving" machine, you cannot buy this weave and install it. You can buy long large shrink tube or the spiral cut plastic tube used to organize computer wiring etc, and use this as an outer covering. I have also used thin-wall, larger ID rubber hose to encase the wires. 3) The last and best suggestion is just say screw the cost, and buy the harness and save the work/bother and have a better looking job!
