Thread: Hummm What should I do

Tweet

I know i'm biased as i'm the UK Rebel dealer but i use them for all my builds these days, I've been dealers for all the others at some point and can honestly say Rebel are the best i've found, also Bob who runs Rebel is a wealth of free info and a very nice chap too.

I've used most all kit, Rebel is very good; EZ is similiar and a few others come to mind - dick frances etc. American is for the professional while Rebel, EZ etc are for the enthieusiest. The American kit will provide you with the actual pins for a lamp socket and you create/assemble the socket in its entirety, make it waterproof and without splice - exactly as OEM. Rebel & EZ etc have a number of preterminated/spliced devices, ie the flasher, ignition sw come to mind so that if you want your fusebox behind or under the seat you'll have a problem to deal with; or, if you want some stuff on the dash (ign & Lights) but want the wiper switch overhead - you'll have a problem.
I prefer the American, i put stuff where i want it; harness/loom the wires and it is a clean installation. The Rebel & EZ will be nearly as good if you locate everything as they have intended - ie, put everything in 'normal' locations. Some wireing cannot be loomed, you bundle it & route it with tye wraps because of the preterminated connectors.
