I looked at several other wiring harnesses and found this at Speedway for the best product and price. This is about as easy as it gets if you are doing a complete rewire on your project, all wire is clearly marked where it goes so even someone like myself that has never done this before can do it. Kit comes complete with everything you will need including switchs if want you to change the old ones out. I would highly remend this to anyone wanting the best wiring for your ride!
