neva got round to commenting back on here.
we was in a rust so its not been do exaclty how we plenned still looks dam tidy though,
basicali... we cut the wire an inch from there plugs, using some muilty core cable, stipped it back a little, solder joins then heat skrin over each joint then a larger pice over the muilti core cable to the plug. ideali we would of bought the pins and just done await with the joins but was in a rush... anyways this what my loom likes like.
still needs tidying up and clipping down properly as onli had shit clips on us at the time.

not reali, there 7/8 wire per light? so what eva you do always will have too be that amount of single cables coming out each cable then has its coating, then you have (like standard look wires all over, then need plastick sleeving or taping and tht looks gash rather then just one cable with its own coating?
its some auto motive stuff, were sponsered by GR Millwards so they gave us best stuff for the job and sent that.

But the outer sleeve, is the heavy part. It will weight more than the singles.
But wouldnt be too noticeable.

I think if you're worried about the weight of the cable protection you must be the next Lewis Hamilton - could just wear no socks in your shoes to counter the additional weight

it might be dude, get to a point where it looks way more professinal though to have 2 single cables running though a car then 10/20 cables running though it. the weight differance between this and single cable must be at most 50/100grams? i weighed the wire when started and it was like 2kg or somet,.. but did snip a few grams off end
agreed russ get to point where the weight stuff gets silly, key if shave everything off, no pants and DEFO make sure u takee a piss and shit first thats gota be a kg?
