which 12v electrical harness kit is best?
 

Good day everyone!!

My old 52 chevy still has the 6v system. I will be installing a 12v system. There appears to be universal kits of varying number of circuits and then direct fit kits. The price for the universal is under half of a direct fit.

Has anyone had experience with using both? I dont mind spending the time with a universal kit, but if they are full of problems, then direct fit it is.

Thanking you in advance!!

Seems like most guys use EZ wiring which I heard is real good price/quality I went with a 12 circuit speedway harness that I'm currently install I'm pretty happy so far

I used an EZ wiring kit (21 circuit, mini fuse)for my '51. Nice quality, good price. I was considering the 12 fuse, but now I am adding power locks and possibly power windows so I am glad I bought the bigger kit.

I used a $150 kit from Classic, had no issues at all.

I used a kit called haywire, wires were labeled every foot or so,I looked at painless and didn't see any real differance so i went with haywire because it was a better price.

I used EZ wire too, Frankentruck required just about every circuit to be modified in some way so pre terminated kits would have been a waste. color coded wiring marked every 12", right gauge for the circuits. Pretty good instructions, and the three times I called with questions got the owner and quick answers. Details on my install in the build thread, only thing I did not do was take a picture of the back of the fuse panel to note where wires are paired at fuses.

dam that's cheaper than my speedway one and it looks about the same minus the mini fuses mine has

My son and I used a Rebel Wire kit on a 55 Ford Ranch Wagon he is doing. Nice kit, well labeled, priced well and good support (if needed).
