IML: '60 wiring harness rubber at doors '61 '62 '63 '64 '65?

Hi Folks,

 

I am trying to finish up my '60 Crown.  I have restored the wiring harness at the doors and need a solution for protection where the wire travels from the firewall to the door.  I had a nice pair of original rubber hoses.  I tried to reinforce one buy inserting another tube around it where it was cracked.  All this did was move the flex point downstream and it cracked there.  I saw a '61 on ebay that showed some diagonal boxes in the door jamb but the rubber hoses were broken off there as well.  At the back doors there is a metal housing that protects the wires and keeps them from crimping when the doors are opened.  Was there a later year that had this kind of metal enclosure that I could adapt to my car?  Too much wire and too much work to just let the wires get broken again.  Solutions?
