Hi folks,
We're trying to decide between AllData, Mitchell's, and DirectTechs. Would greatly appreciate input from folks who have used any of them. A comprehensive vehicle wiring database is the most important to us, but component location and removal/reinstallation instructions are also of value.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Kevin

No takers on this I see....maybe I should ask this instead - If you aren't using one of the three sources I listed above, what are you using and how do you like it?

Experience? Plus anything I can get my hands on as a crib sheet.

I use directechs (not by choice). It is ok, alarm + remote start wiring is pretty great and in depth, audio colors and locations is definitely lacking. Haven't tried the others though so don't know what to compare it to.

So many...Directechs.com(dealer)...Audiovox/code...installdr.com...Bulldog has pictures i guess of some vehicles and panel dis-assembly...etc (really never use this one,although hear there name quite a bit)...! The12volt.com...! Of the three mentioned...Directechs is more geared for the install shop(AFAIK)...Rarely they are wrong and overall pretty great for their pupose...alarm,r/s,etc...Maybe mitchells has more info related to that now...? But ive always known mitchell as very specific and maybe for the advance repair...like the whole schematic for a light as opposed to just color,location,polarity...(there is also important notes like current capabilities,field fixes,basically anything you would come across there is a note or schematic that will show when vehicle type is entered) I have never seen alldata...!
