    Question Chrome wire conduit???

    Anyone using it? How does it look? Where did you get it. Got any pics? I have some wires I'm gonna need to hide/cover.

    I did a LOT of research on this but the bookmarks are on the hard drive of a crashed PC. I'll see if I can recover them and post them. I searched on Wire Loom and Wire Braid, BTW.

    Great question B. I was wondering that just today. I installed risers and ss cables and front brake lines and was wanting something for the black wiring coming from the switch housings!

    Exactly why I was asking. Oh and for the tach housing harness as well.

    I have used it in the past for my wires on my car stereo amp. It looks ok but if you touch it too much the coating peels off.

    You can get the corrugated stuff at most autoparts stores.

    Hey B., if you're talking about the chrome split loom, they have it at Pep Boys for certain. I've had it on the front of mine since November and is still looks good, for what it is. Didn't like seeing all the black cable and wires, so I used it till I can get stainless. Best shot I have of it.

    Big-B, there is a company that sells the plastic specialty loom. Its not the aluminum coated type that peels after a few months. They are extremely durable. I've attached a couple of pics below. Here is their web address. http://cableorganizer.com/convoshield/

    I've used this before and it's a real clean look.

    I used the sheilded braiding off some coax cable "RG213" use it for antennas.
    Pulled the plugs apart , slid it on.
    There might be something better but this was cheep and looks ok.

    If u havent pulled it apart U can't say its yours!
