Most people on here use a sponsor or do it themselves. There are numerous companies that supply this service. I did my own, and now I'm working on 2 more for friends to the tune of $200 ea. and they pay for parts.

Hmm ... If I knew more people interested in a swap, I'd do it. It only took me about 45 minutes to modify my own harness.

Probably your best bet would be to advertise with the site.

I think you would have more luck supplying everything. It seems to me, most people here are trying to mod their own harnesses because its not that difficult. But the people that need or want a new stand alone are the ones that need the help.

I am doing some locally too, I like to have the vehicle in the shop though and lay it out completely built for the car, rather than do a mail order.

It usually takes me about a week or so to do it, and thats just working on it after work and school. I remove all unneeded wiring and instead of "cut and tuck" like some people do. Less loose wires = easier troubleshooting.

Would you actually add fuses and relays, or just splice all the pinks together and leave it to the end user to put in any fuses and figure out fans, fuel pump, etc. (i.e. not supply any parts, just perform a service of taking out wires and labeling)

Completely done....just enough to get the vehicle up and running really....i have all the relays and holders....included in the 200.00 price...all wires removed...egr, ac, if you want ...if changing to gen 1 trans...i will remove the wires....rear 02's...oil level...just all the bs you don't really need...and will leave the harness unloomed..so you can route the pcm where ever you want..cause the is like four foot of wiring going to that thing...oh yeah the obd 2 connector will be in the harness also...but they need to specify exactly what they want...so really for 200.00 all you need to do is supply a harness and be able to find constant and switched 12 volts to install the harness...

Perfect...then you can sponsor LS1Tech.

Outside of that, using this website to sell your product won't happen.
