    Wiring my Car

     



    I bought a 21 circuit kit from EZ wire and want to get started on my car. For a change I thought I would FIRST ask if there is anything I should know before I start this. I assume this might be a long post before I'm done.

    I started by mounting my fuse box and organizing the wires into groups. I bought a bunch of split loom, cable ties (1000), shrink wrap and connectors as well as a new soldering gun, my old one was crap. I've wired my chopper in the past from scratch so I have some idea but not much, I've also read some of the posts like the one IC2 put up.

    1. Is it best to solder connectors and then shrink wrap them?
    2. I noticed there aren't any ground wires in the kit, should I run a common ground from each section of the car to one of my grounding points?

    More to come I'm sure, thanks in advance.
