No, there is no aftermarket wiring harness for the 2nd gen. 1st gen is easier with a generic harness because everything is fairly standard. 2nd gen has all electronic controls, with many body related functions managed by the CPU. The logicon and such aren't standard.

No, it has nothing to do with the ECU unless you also want to replace the engine/emissions harnesses. All the 2nd gen body harnesses are independent of the engine and emissions harness. The real problem is that most everything in the 2nd gen cockpit is electronic. To use a generic replacement harness, you'd have to convert all the switchgear and controls to something more standard.
