When you find the correct wires to tap into on the headlight plug, you can use these wire tap connectors instead of cutting and splicing. Very simple to use.

They have caused more electrical issues than they helped. Around my area they would fail within a year due to the salty air. The easier the install the shorter the life span but hey, to each their own.

I've had this in and out of my cart a few times now, but seems like a pain in the a** to install and I don't like the thought of having to jimmy rig something so expensive to make it stay together, but it looks cool. I've been thinking of getting the non pro now

0h it’s not that bad. Don’t compromise, get the pro. It’s a very nice unit. Think of it as only four wires and it’s installed.

They also sell those with insulators to protect from the elements.

I’m all for the weather pac sealed system but the stab loc. Nope. Over 30 year’s experience both at the dealership level and operating my own business I’ve seen plenty of issues with those things.
For the viewers education here’s a very accurate article you should read and draw your own conclusions.
