How to get it to fit in the case? I just can't logically figure out how to get the wires to fit, I tried going down to 22awg, no luck.

I believe the wire is the antenna. Why would you want the antenna to be hidden with no good reception?

There's a gourmet on unit to remove plus i drilled holes at sides.......Its a pain in the a.... as designed.

I used automotive connector wires with the soft but stable plastic coat. These push through the little holes and then do well with connecting to the blocks for the relays. You know you back out the screws 1st to fit the wire and then tighten back down. Cut the wire end to only a few mm so no copper is sticking out. If twisted strands, tighten them well so they fit in.

I remember have trouble with the same part... this 2 parts are very tight. I used a screw driver to push the shell off the chassis or try to go to the left them to the right holding the chassis strait. It will work and the result is great.Good luck.My very best

I have a similar configuration and ended up having to buy an extension cable. A friend of mine did a build similar to mine and claimed the cable was long enough. I wanted to have some slack and extra length for better routing around the motherboard so as not to interfere with airflow for cooling.

Mine was tight fitting also. I really had to use some force. I pushed plugs in and loosened them up while it was in my hand rather than in the wall. That helped. Hope this works for you.

I have a standard case and it fits without any problem. I think the photo might have been distorted. FYI, the cables are quite stiff it made it hard for me to do a super neat assembly job.

Forget about that. If you have a new motherboard then it will be very simple and everything only plugs in one place. So the largest cable plugs to the largest spread and work your way down from there. You can't really screw it up with the high end gear.

My husband put a cable casing over top the wires. You can buy the casing at Walmart or Lowes.

1st, i'm not an electician. i tried running it into the top was very difficult to get the "outlet" back in the box once wired cause the heavy gauge wire has to do a 180 turn in the box. I changed it to feed in from the bottom, wire the box 1st, tighten and re-tighten the wire connections several times cause they loosen, put the outlet in the box. Then you have the slack wire taken out of the box and then have it hooked up to the service panel.

Yes, I had the same problem. Got this and it works great. It's kinda hard to place it in, just take your time.

I'm guessing, but it is probably 22 AWG (seems smaller than 20). The butt splices (crimps) with the red color are good for 18 - 22 AWG, and can accommodate smaller than 22 if needed. The splices are Amp 8-55824-2 or the equivalent. I used these: http://www.te.com/catalog/pn/en/8-55824-2?RQPN=8-55824-2. Happy wiring! I've read reviews & comments suggesting twisting the wires and wrapping with electrical tape, and I can tell you that you don't want to go there unless you want to re-wire it at some point in the near future.

seth.. we had to remove the covers on the end of the cable. The tiny black covers over the connectors.. they come off. We removed 2, then it fit just fine. I hope this answers your question

Just follow the instructions that came in the box, but the connectors don't fit flush on the bottom layer squares. The two bottom holes go on the wires leaving the two top holes of the connector above the square. Thats where you can attach the next layer of the squares. Honestly i have to refer to the instructions each time i make them so i would hold on to them as long as possible or download another set, which they should be online or there should be a tutorial on youtube. Just beware you can pinch your fingers pretty awful in them.

I would like to just know how to hook it up!! I cannot figure out what goes where and there are no directions!! I know the outfit was cheap, but geez!!! If you like yours so much, then purchase one to go with it!! Could you help me get mine set up?? I just cannot figure out what wire goes where. and not all of them fit

I went through this with the seller and left feedback. I'd suggest you read feedbacks before you buy any kind of case online. I ended up buying my present case at a local vendor so I could ensure fit.

See if you can find smaller wire nuts at a local hardware store. Also route the wires in smooth straight paths so they dont cross each other and things will take up less space and may fit better. Crossed wire paths take up a lot of space.

Im sorry I do not now- It is a matter of buy and try- If doesn't fit return it. This was exactly what I did and worked out fine. Best of Luck!
