I just bought there express one. All the different wiring is packaged seperate. It seems pretty straight forword. I plan on doing the install shortly a week or so. I'll let you know how it goes. When you call them they ask you what your doing with your car as far as elec. goes so they sell you what you need. Not just a off the shelf "kit".

Ron seems to be a great guy to deal with...

I LOVE MY RON FRANCIS KIT! I forget which kit I got but it was fairly basic with a couple extra circuits for radio/fans/heat etc. I went right to the shop in Chester,PA and the knowledge and service is top notch. I had my car running in 3 days working on it after work. The kit is really user friendly, I actually learned a lot about my car installing it. I liked the flexability with wire placement and routing afforded with the kit. I say go for it.

Forgot to add that I am electronically moronic and my car works great on that end, even after I touched it!

I dont have their kit, but I helped a buddy of mine install one and the quality of the wiring and fuse box is top notch, pricey but very nice stuff.

I did not buy their kit, just some parts such as their synergy switches, some nice machined light sockets, a battery cut off switch, etc. All of the parts are top quality. I design electronics for a living and I was impressed with the quality of their parts. Not cheap, but worth it.

i own one and will put in my car again (rewiring after complete teardown and paint). the kit works and has excellent instructions. I thought it was kinda silly though that i had to send em the year and model of my car and then not get the wiring for backup lights - i called and complained and their response was that most street rods didn;t come with back up lights originally - huh??? when i explained that this is a 67 nova that DID come with backup lights, they still wanted to charge me for a backup light kit - I declined and bought some wire and wired it myself. Honestly If i had to do over again i would look at american autowire or one of the off brands , maybe even painless. just my 2 cents

I had a good friend wire my car he did wiring jobs on the side and he would only use Ron Francis components and he built his own harnesses he was quite an artist, he passed almost two years ago but I still have the car to remember him with:yes:

I used one a while back. I haven't had any problems with it; the instructions, tech support and kit were good quality.
