I have a kit that will be going in soon. It is a Kwik Wire. It has colored
and labeled wires, 3 pigtail connectors on the harness, an on /off toggle
switch on the block, and GXL grade wire(was told this is step above modern
factory regs- same grade as RF & EZ wire). Instruction are straight
forward, and there is a wiring hotline to boot. They make 12,18 and 21 fuse
blocks. I got my 18 fuse kit for $255. Lot cheaper than RF. I wasn't as
impressed with the EZ wire a friend used. The black wires may look cleaner,
but I can only imagine trying to trace a wire on the the side of the road
one night. Just my 2"
