carvox 2300 x6a domelight problems :

Agreed, he charged $250.00 for the install and is a good guy (my friends use him for all kinds of installs) by I checked he soldered everything and used split loom so I am happy. I was just worried about the remote starter wiring as I have installed lots of alarm systems, brake controllers and such. I just did not like where he installed the status led, valet switch, shock sensor, or antennas. My buddies did comment most people would not have been able to fix a few of these issues and reprogram the brain as many now use a much simplier PC interface. Oh well will be doing some wiring this Christmas as I am a bit of stickler when it comes to installation work I never use crimps, I prefer shrink wrap, liquid tape, and split loom. Randy

Heat shrink, or to be anal adhesive lined for under the hood. Scotch 33+ for non-butt joints. On Euro cars I use fabric looming tape, matches up with the factory loom for stealth. $7.50 per roll! I only use crimp connectors (with a compound ratchet crimper) as ring terminals and fully insulated fastons for pin switches, even then I use 6.4 (1/4") heat shrink over the crimp connectors under the hood AND spray the pin switch and the rear of the siren with moisture retardant. I won't use split corrugated looming on customer's cars under the hood because they won't pay for it. Who makes the liquid tape? I need to get some. I even have a collection of Molex Sure-seal IP65 connectors, but who's going to pay for that?

Don't worry, Googled it and found it on Amazon.

If I need to use a connector I like the T connectors. I like the liquid tape when I just need to slice into a wire and it is a bit tight to get full wraps of tape and just need something like rubber to cover a shiner (exposed copper). Randy
