ok i emailed elprototypes and they said

Hello:

Based upon our experience, this is not a simple job.

Testing, splicing and configuring for the application is about 30 hours. This assumes both harnesses are in original undamaged condition.

Note: We solder all joints and match all wire gauges to avoid the risk of damage to the vehicle.

The flat rate for this service is $1,500. The hourly rate is $65. / hour for damaged harnesses or repair of modified harnesses.

By now you may be experiencing "sticker" shock; however, we would like to assure you that the cost is real, as is the time to do it properly. (We do a lot of repairs to harnesses that have been improperly modified and the total cost is invariably higher for the customer.)

Regards,

ELP

is there not anyone who an do it cheaper, and i though someone told me ^they did their harness for $300

a lot of people talk smack about Mike. BUT, you have to remember that there are a few that did get great work from him. I'm one of them. My harness arrived on time and in perfect conditions. Plug and Play.

I know nobody's said this yet, but please don't say that he's always done FOOKED up work, cause he's helped a lot of others here on this board as well.

El Prototype is a great place to send your harness IF you know for a fact that you can't handle the work. I personaly, am not that great with electrical, so i would go with someone who knows what they're doing and has the experience to back it up.

Good luck dude. I hope you get it done properly, no matter who does it.

yeah..i know for a fact that he doesnt always do fcuked up work...thats why i went to him in the first place because of all the recommendation... people make mistakes, i guess my wires was one of the unlucky one even after i sent the wires back to him and was returned undone and also blocking my aim, not returning my calls, and so on... but its coo..my car is running now
