Question for BDL99: Are you going to do a continuity check on each wire in each harness to be sure there are no cold solders or bad pin connections before sending the harnesses out ? I'd just like to be sure that the harness is good before connecting it and having something not work.
Thanks

Yes, just like all my kits, every kit will be tested before sending. I have a computer based cable tester that checks every pin and looks for shorts and checks correct pinouts etc. This is a very simply harness, so I don't expect any failures but everything will be tested none the less.

Do you have an expected turn around time before you will actually be able to take orders and have these sent out? Just a guesstimate would be fine. Like 2 weeks, or more like 2 months? Bc I would much rather have the harness but I too have an 09 that the warranty just ran out this month and I am debating just cutting the wire out of fear.

I will be posting more details later today, but I expect to open it up for orders later today and expect to ship within 2 weeks. The first batch will be 25-30 units and I will set stock accordingly. There is a chance that I may be able to ship a few earlier and will ship in the same order as the orders are placed.

Good man ! I just completed a PayPal transaction for the harness.
Thanks
