Default What wiring harness did you use?

I'm looking to see what kit might be better, the Autowire Power Plus 13 or the Painless 12 circuit universal. The painless is a little higher in price but there is a $100 mfg. rebate going on right now. The Autowire seems like it might come with more. Thanks Richie

I used a harness from Kwikwire.com. A very high quality harness for a great price.

If you can read electrical diagrams and schematics it is not that difficult to wire one of these cars, as the electrical needs are pretty basic. You can do a 1st class job for under $250.00. Source your components from a reputable supplier and enjoy. It is one of the more satisfying parts of building the car.
