    Military spliced, soldered, heat-shrinked
    and wire-loom.

    Was one worker in upper interior at Choo Choo Customs
    felt they needed to use half a roll of electrical tape
    on every high top van TV power cable. Production manager told 'em
    we don't make wire loom out of black tape.

    :jester: that's how i've always done electronics .. splice it, twist the wires together and put about 2 foot of tape around it. i did this a little better with actually connectors. i DO NOT want to have to tear those door panels off just to fix a wire haha

    This guy knows what's up if you have any problems simple disconnect plus looks better than tons of tape
