Default shopping around for a jumper harness

I had it with my jumper harness, its supposedly a skunk 2 but I wouldve never thought they would make something so freaking crappy. Anyone satisfied with theirs? What brand and where can I pick one up for a sweet price?

* I also like to mention that I remove my ecu/jumper harness when I park the car so its being plugged/unplugged daily.

Boomslang Fabrication, Phearable.net, Kenji's, Rywire .... it all comes down to who you want to buy one from.

Any harness you buy really isn't going to handle being unplugged and plugged 30 times a week, they're not exactly a marvel or modern engineering.

the good news is this is not going to harm your conversion harness much at all... the bad news is it's going to wear out the connectors in your car.

like Eran said, where you buy it is up to you. stay clear of Ebay specials and stick you one of the list that he posted and you'll be very happy.

NOTE: http://www.xenocron.com also sells a very good conversion harness ... http://www.xenocron.com/produc...rness - from his page... "As always, our harnesses are guaranteed for life!"

I try to be very careful when I unplug/plug in the jumper harness to my cars harness. The sad thing I failed to mentioned is I did purchase it from ebay and it was used

* I had a CEL for a while and I discovered 1 of the wires came off. When I looked closer, some of the wires looked like they were rewelded. Now I have electric tape holding some of the wires together.

Thanks for the input guys

Why do you unplug it when you park? Security i'm guessing?

Just do a few well hidden kill switches.

LOL I cant believe I said welding, what a loser

yeah I remove the ecu for additional security but the real reason is, I dont have anywhere to place it. The ecu/jumper harness is just resting between my floor mat and carpet. If anyone were to look inside my car they would see it if I left it
