For the longest time, whenever I had wiring to do on a car I would use crimp-on spade or ring connectors without solder. It worked well and was fast and cheap. When I got my mkiii, I wired up the new stereo harness with hook and loop soldered connections wrapped tightly in electrical tape. I think it is assumed that this is the better way to wire things in a car. But when I did my foglight rewire, I couldn't get in there with a soldering iron so I used wiring cap connectors to splice wires. Now for the quiz...
1) Which method is best for low-current wiring? (no HIDs or battery relocation)
2) Which is the worst for conductivity and why? My friend says that crimp connections are the worst thing you can do to a car because they add so much resistance, is that true?
3) What is the best type of connection for wiring in sensitive devices like an emanage or an AEM EMS and why?
thanks for the help, and if you have any helpful links I would love to see them, google hasn't been too nice to me today
