Does anyone know where to get the wires harness connectors that plug into factory plugs so you do not need to splice into the Ignition wires? I have seen them mentioned before and i was curious about their price and availability. Thanks ------------- J Rilla

This is the only place I have seen them : https://www.bulldogsecurity.com/shop/mall/access_tharness(1).htm Has anyone else used them? I'm curious to hear if they are worth the cost.

I belive that www.crutchfield.com uses Omegas interconnect harness. I have not used them but they look like they would save time and all the wires in the harness are oem wire gauge. They might be sorta expensive. Brian

Ok I must be retarded, I cant seem to find them at Crutchfield, and I have looked at the Bulldog site and the T-harnesses look like they use connectors that are more or less the same as T taps. Maybe the picture is bad, but they dont look like what I am looking for. Has anyone seen them on Crutchfield. I think I saw a post from a guy who sold the Omega harnesses. but I wouldn't be able to find it.

On the Bulldog t-harness you actually unplug your ignition harness and plug in the t-harness and then your ignition harness plugs back into the t-harness.

Have you used them yourself? Are they pretty slick? I guess thge picture just doesn't do them justice. I didn't see the vehicle I was interested in one for so i might be out of luck there. Any other info on the Omega or any other brand? Also do the bulldog t-harnesses allow for a starter kill relay or do you have to cut the starter wire anyway? ------------- J Rilla

i have a box of 112 doorlock and main igntion harnesses, all made by DEI. I have a list if your interested. Most are 93-96 Ford models. all mains are pre wired with SK and terminate with older style DEI 12 pin plug. all DL's terminate in the DEI 3 pin DL plug. I used an Omega harness on a Camry install for a neighbor back in 97 with a Crimeguard alarm, never stopped working, never needed service and he used the crap out if, he was in outside sales, so he drove everywehere. I have to say i was impressed with the reliability. But then again, i installed it  ------------- Viper Equipped

Where did you get the Omega Harness from? I am looking at one for a 2001 Chevy venture. It doesn't sound like you would have one in your DEI stash. ANyone else know where to find the Omega harnesses

I use the Bulldog harness's twice and think the are the easiest way to tap in the factory harness. Not much on the Bulldog remote starters though.

You won't find the harness on crutchfields website. You have to call to see if they have them for your car. They do have an example of the interconnect harness. https://www.crutchfield.com/infocenter/car/S-eOjSMRdFsNF/security.html Scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Thanks a lot, I finally was able to see a picture and talk with someone. I am sure they are pretty slick, but I doubt they would save me enough time to justify the cost.
Thanks guys

i see 3 main reasons to use them: 1. for novice installers who aren't all that sure. 2. dealer lot vehicles where they can be removed quickly and leave factory wires undisturbed 3. can be somewhat of a time saver, depending the vehicle. Although it can be hard to get a clean look with a harness which is easier achieved without one. ------------- Viper Equipped
