How long are the wires for the OEM Input Harness and Power Connection Harness? Manual on JL's site doesn't say. Anyone have to extend them?

To be honest I can not recall exactly how long however I can tell you that I did not require extension and had no issue with length. My install was in a 2011 F150 with the Cleansweep located near the Glove Box. Sorry I could not be of more help. Good luck with your install.

I connected the orange wire to the back up light inside the tail light housing. I needed to extend the orange wire, too short.

Wires on lights are long enough and the transformer also has a long wire. You will need the (4) plug extension piece that comes with the light kit to connect (3) lights (MAX) and the transformer plug. They can all be connected at a center location and tucked away under the pools ledge and/or corner cover. IN MY SETUP the distance from my LAST light and the transformer plug is approx. .....30ft.

I've just measured mine... it's 9'10" long... unfortunately, there's something wrong with the wire (and no, it wasn't the 250V 2AL fuse that came with it) as I've tested it separately. Either that or it's the connector (where you connect to the radar detector, or in my case my Cobra Dashcam).

When I installed the unit, the wiring connecting the external unit to the internal unit was not long enough so I added 15 feet of wire. The power supply of the base unit could handle the additional impedance of the new wire and it worked. You can test it by connected the coiled wire (in the package) between the units and see how well it works or if it works at all. If it does not work, you will have to figure out how to provide additional power at the external unit. You may need to contact the manufacturer for additional assistance. Or make it work through trial and error.

The wires are about six inches long. If you need more you will have to do some splicing. The outlet works fine, I mounted it under the hood of my truck to use with an auxiliary light.

Yes, you should have plenty of wire with this harness. I actually shortened mine on my TJ so I didn't have any excess wire needing wrapped up and hidden. As another purchaser mentioned, you will have to lengthen the power wire depending on where you get your power supply from. I ran a 6 bank fuse block with an 8 gauge main power wire from my power source inside behind my glove box and distribute power for all my lights from there. That gives me many more options for power supplies when needed.

I would go to Best Buy and get the harness kit that fits your car so you dont have to cut the existing wiring harness, it makes for a neater job, you can make all of your connections and then plug and play.

The wires are long. You will have to purchase the 6ft downrod as it comes with a 4in one.

Greg, I have one of these on the front & I don't care a lick for it! Buy a bigger unit if you can! As far as wiring, I just made up a 2 strand wire harness & ran it along the inside edge of my deep v right down to the battery. I then split it & put a connecter for each post. It works like a charm! I'm no Guru when it comes to this kind of stuff either and I made it work. cbmgh@comcast.net if I cabn be of further assistance to you. CB

I had adjust the harness to accommodate existing wiring. Of you will keep track and mark your incoming speaker wires, front/back and L/R, it's fairly easy. Hope this helps. My original system was installed 2002.

Wired up fine on my TJ. Not having a YJ sorry but I would take a look at the wires to make sure you wired it up correctly

I used the installation kit from Amazon and wired directly to my battery for power. I also used speaker-level inputs since I hooked up to my stock Jeep radio. I can tell you that I don't see any flicker or blink in my lights when the system is on and drawing power. It doesn't seem to pull enough wattage to put a load on my regulator and doesn't require a capacitor. Unless you are installing in something built before '70, I wouldn't be concerned.

I belive the wires are 6 foot something, it looks pretty long, but for a vehicle that big as you refer, Is not gonna be enough!

Dear Andrew, Thanks for your inquiry. The wire on the lights measures to be 35cm in length,but the wire of the wiring harness switch relay is 1.8m in length,but the wiring harness relay is not included in this kit,you can check it from http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Wiring-Harness-Switch-Driving/dp/B00DKWJ1RS/ref=sr_1_1?m=AA3DW73OVKOAR&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1402665864&sr=1-1&keywords=B00DKWJ1RS. Hope this can help.

No expert, here, but...BE CAREFUL and ALWAYS have the in-line fuse in place on the OEM wiring harness, and NEVER wire directly to your fuse block W/O this, or, like I did a couple of years ago, blew a classic old PassPort! No big loss other than sentimental!

I have not come across a harness that is sold for this amp to connect to the factory speakers wire harness. Injustice cut mine and use inline wire connectors.
