This is like the one I uses. I bought mine at Advance Auto Parts for $7. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=071-580

You can always desolder the wire and tape it up if you want to remove it at any point.

Why? Why should other's projects necessarily shape the way my project turns out? Why go the trouble and potential risk or damaging a perfectly good wiring harness, not to mention warranty on some cars, when a $7 part does the exact same thing and is 100% reversible? If you don't plan on keeping a car forever, it's nice to have the option to bring the car back to 100% stock. I haven't drilled one hole or spliced into one harness yet. I've used existing grommets, parts like the add-a-circuit and a little creativity to accomplish the same thing.

I can assure you my wiring and soldering skills are up to the task. Sometimes the most "unrefined" solution is the most elegant.
