Inspired by a product I saw online, I made my own (much simpler) tool you can use to add a tracer stripe to any wire. If you just need a few feet of wire to match a harness, it can be cost-prohibitive to find exactly the right wire and tracer color. I wouldn't suggest doing an entire harness this way, but to make a patch here and there, this is kind of a cool/cheap/easy way to maintain the factory color scheme....

Just noticed your YouTube comment. Did you manage to get one printed?

OK, it may be time to invest in a 3D printer. Any recommendations for a reasonable hobbyist tool?
