" ...  It would have been cheaper to have them re-wire it. ... And the pet that sucks even more is there is still more wire that is bound to go bad!!!  ...  "

comment
" ...  Afters an hour of troubleshooting, I've concluded the wires are poor quality. ... I've confirmed this with a single LED setup which was extremely dim at the end of wire. ... Maybe the LED lights are ok so I just need to replace the wires.  ...  "
comment
" ...  After 6 months the wires have become extremely brittle. ... My ground wire broke and is so brittle I cannot even strip the insulation off without it breaking. ... I can use my fingernail and break the wires into two pieces. ... Do yourself a favor and DO NOT use the included wire harness!  ...  "
