[QUOTE="the727kid, post: 8130074, member: 569362"] Wrap and tape is very common and preffered method on heavy guage wire. Well technically poke, wrap, and tape. It's called a military splice and when done properly is almost as effective as soldering (could be more effective if you **** at soldering and create a cold solder). It is MECP reccomended. If I go this route I add a fourth step and put a zip tie around the tape, that way it should never come loose. It is also very common to do on speaker installs if the customer does not purchase speaker adapters. We will never (or should never) cut off any speaker harnesses. Part of our installation includes free re-installation so that is the primary reasoning behind that. [/QUOTE]
