the speartech harnesses are so worth the extra money. a couple months down the road you'll be happy with tha decision. Trust me. You'll save yourself a ton of headaches, cursing and throwing things at small children. It's not that the painless is bad, it's just that Speartech is better since they can be custom made for your specific application.

What sold me on the Speartech was the support after I get the thing back. I'm gonna need all the help I can get. Go to his web site sometime, I do believe he was a GM engineer. He called today and my harness is done!

I also have to say that speartech has been awesome, the harness is great, it goes in quick and easy, and his support after the sale is great!

Another vote for John at SPeartech. He was answering my questions long before we sent him our harness to modify. Solid work, great support.

I went with Current Performance in Florida. Great price and great product. Every wire was labeled and easy to follow instructions.
