Its a Snap Wiring Harness

Has anyone used this brand of wiring harness? How were instructions, and quality. There about $150, which is about $400 less than the Painless harness. Thanks

 

Do a search... it's kinda "you get what ya pay for"... IIRC they are made in China or use Chinese pieces...

Try Saint Wire and Cable... great stuff.

 

I used Rebel Wire. Same price range and excellent quality. Glenn is a good guy and you'd be supporting a fellow HAMBer.

 

I have a Rebel wire kit here in front of me. I can tell you the wire quality is excellent, on par with the expensive kits, much better than Painless imho.

I helped a friend with his Its a snap harness. Stay away!!!!!!!!! More time trouble shooting than to install a good harness. Go Rebel....

 

Rebel it is than.

 

Opinions vary a lot, but my impression is you'll get little support from it's a snap. I'm using rebel wire right now, and you actually get questions answered. It's my first wiring job but I've read a lot of books. Haven't powered it up yet but so far so good. Instructions are minimal, so if you need step by step American autowire or r. Francis may work better.
Don't forget cost of connectors , plugs, relays, ground wire, mounting clips, proper crimper, and solder/heatgun if you go that route.

American comes with new starter switch, dimmer, headlight sockets, etc etc and lots of wires already terminated and American parts. Not cheap but awesome and broken down into different sections.

I guess it boils down to this. More or less the more you pay the simplier the job will be and less parts chasing.

Good luck!

 

I got one in my 54. Been in there almost four years. Zero trouble, diagrams with it were good. I had one question, got an answer right away. Added advantage is that it is really small (uses the mini plug in fuses) so you can mount it just about anywhere. Very satisfied.

My son has the same one in his 41. Same situatiion.

 

Oh Man: That's the harness from hell. It was so bad and the wires so short and the lettering wiped off easily . I gave it away and made my own. DON"T BUY!

 

I've used one before. They're on par with EZ-Wire and the rest of the cheaper universal kits. I had no problems installing it or any of the other EZ-Wire kits I've used. I give it a thumbs up.

 

I pulled this thread up from a search.
An It`s a Snap harness come with the rod I`m building - anyone have any more useful tips to installing.....thx.

 

Rebel makes the best kits IMHO... I used a 9+3 to wire my 51 and it was simple as can be and pretty good quality... It was my first time re-wiring a complete car and I knocked it out in a weekend...

 

rebel wire is in that range and looks like a good piece. ill be installing mine later this winter

 

$150 bucks seems pretty budget minded but better add in the cost of a good multi meter to teach yourself some "fixin skills" for later on or to just really help understand what is going on with your rods electrical system. Oh never mind you have AAA!
