Now closer detail pics as you can see its pretty much all new wiring and connectors and as you can tell alot of work and quality wiring ,soldering etc,nothing feels loose and looks this will last a long time

All connectors come labeled along with power and ground , if you can read and can connect a plug into a outlet this will be Cake to install


Heres the C100 no messing with the tar grease and soaking in in gasoline or brake cleaner lol

Re: Pocket Plug And Play Harness Review and Install

I'll agree. Iv been wanting to do this myself. My harness was absolutely destroyed once I started getting into. Some of the wires were melted some were just loose and fell right out.
Anyways, these new harnesses from Pocket are amazing! Very easy to install and everything is new. It took me longer to make a hole in the firewall than to install this harness. On top of it, his harness just fits so well. These are top notch and I would recommend them to anyone.

Re: Pocket Plug And Play Harness Review and Install

I enjoyed building mine, it works but it just isn't as pretty as pocket's harness, so even though I built my own and it works just fine I'll still be getting one of his.
