GPR as well.

Hey, this leads me to on interesting question:

Anyone build thier own wire sets? I have 6 good tested ends that screw on, so I went to my local flaps and picked up like 30ft of solid core 7mm wire, 8 ends and 8 little boots. The wire set turned out looking stock and each wire lenght is perfect, cause I built it.

So I spent like $14 on everything, have tons of wire left over. Haven't started the six yet, but wonder how it will compare to a wire set you can buy? I didn't need to save the money or anything, just something I wanted to try. You could do the same for 4cyl cars. The ends screw on as well.

The wire I got was black. I did this because you can't seem to find a set of actual wire anymore? Everything is a resistor type or fiber or something. I will see how the six runs with these for a while. Maybe not such a good idea to try them before I even get it running? Harder to diag problems. Should probably start with known goods first. Oh well.

I've thought of 'building' my own wires. I have the straight ends
and want to go to the angled ends. But it costs as much to buy
just the Beru ends as it does to buy a whole wire set. I wish I
had some extra ends just lying around.
