Need Apc Harness Soon

I ordered one from carparts (now JC whitney) they said its going to take up to 4 weeks to deliver!!! Is there another place I can order the APC harness from? I already have my bulbs, just waiting for the harness.

Avoid carparts. Half my freaking orders are backordered for weeks--making me cancel, or they might do it themselves. Ordered the APC harness from them 2nd week of September. 2 weeks later, they cancel it saying they don't know if they can get them. Placed another order for STS couple weeks ago. No word on fulfilment. Now I am in limbo--want them to cancel so I can get it from someplace else, but they are having difficulty finding out the status of the order. JC Whitney needs to clean carparts up big time...

I am not going to flame here, but just wanted to ask you why are you putting a upgraded harness? Are you just adding high wattage bulbs? I am highly experienced in electronics and can tell you that the stock wire will handle upto 100 watts without blowing the fuse, and on top of that will only start to melt the insulation on the wire at about 150watts.

I dont think upgrading the harness is necessary, but it is obviously your car. Just my .02

Yes I am upgrading the harness to put in higher wattage bulbs. Many people on the forum say that bulbs above 55watts (low beam) have melted thier harness. I just rather play it safe. i ordered one from Jegs.com they shipped it out already so i should get it by the beginning of the up comming week.

Re: Re: Re: Need Apc Harness Soon

hey bigdog, you are wrong my friend, i have burnt out the harnesses twice now, both times using 80/100W bulbs, so I dont know what electronics you work with, but it isnt maxima 9004 stock headlight harnesses...

maximaracer- how much did you pay at jeg's for the harness??
