I've pretty much reduced my shortlist to this company or EZ Wiring at this point for a variety of reasons. | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 275 Shop Shark | Shop Shark Joined: May 2007 Posts: 275 | I've never bought one of theirs, but it looks like a good one. I wired many a vehicle and know how difficult it can be with a lousy harness. Maybe someone can give us more info on this company.

Works fine for me. Pretty easy to follow the instructions. Good technical advice from the company also. | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 119 Wrench Fetcher | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 119 | I got the ez2wire kit from this guy on ebay - terrible service. I paid for it immediately, but the guy never shipped and reported me to e-bay as a non-pay deadbeat. Look at his feedback - he has a really bad habit of selling product he doesn't have. I finally got the product and was less than impressed with it. Stick with the name brand stuff. | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 1,624 Shop Shark | Shop Shark Joined: May 2005 Posts: 1,624 | I agree with "Desert_buick", you get what you pay for. You can buy a good product from someone like EZ wire without having to help pay for a NASCAR team. Also, bad feedback at eBay sends up a huge red flag. Tread carefully, Grasshopper.

I went back and called about color coding and wire gauges and they faxed straight away. I have not installed but read through the instructions and between them and Stovebolt I think I should have some fun (vacation on 6-15-07 till 7-8-07). Yep back to OK to play truck. I have also decided to base that istall on the foundation of MAD's starter kit (new item all inclusive for 130). I have not purchased fronm MAD but talked to him on the phone and he loves to talk electrical. Convinced me by reading his site as well.

Hmm the guy I am looking at has 17 negatives versus 2374 positives and only 3 in the last 6 months. Are we sure we're talking about the same guy? I know EZWiring has the reputation but to be honest I can't see a difference in comparing their specs to EZ2Wire which is the eBay retailer I was looking at. In fact if anything the scales of balance are tilting in favor of EZ2Wire over EZWiring. | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,440 Extreme Gabster | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,440 | I'll stick with Hot Rod Wires. I used their 12 circuit harness in my '56 and was very impressed. | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 248 Wrench Fetcher | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 248 | I installed the EZwire harness on my truck and liked it. No real problems other than ones I created myseld. If I had to buy another one today I'd go with EZwire again... | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 3 New Guy | New Guy Joined: May 2007 Posts: 3 | I bought the EZ wire harness after reading Texmo's post on the Tech Tip page. Although i havent installed it yet, it looks like it is user friendly. The wires are labled every 6 inches. Just put them where they go. Just remember, it does not come with ground wire.
