Not sure if this would work since I've never tried it, but cut the heatshrink down the middle and wrap it around the wire might work.

Oh, what I'm sure has been said countless times, the high cost of all the good equipment.

Guess if I hadn't any financial concerns, which some of you on here may be able to claim such, my second leading annoyance that tends to get to me, all the God forsaken idiots with loud ass systems that don't do a damn thing about all the fucking rattles coming from their ride. It sounds like shit buddy, quit circling the damn block at 5mph thinking you're impressing someone.

Ordering an Alternator and having to wait almost 3 months and still don't have it. Each time I call I am told it will be done in a week or so. So aggravating.

Fake ass people, the kind that show up at shows/meets/wherever, try to act like they know shit (cars, audio, again whatever) and fifteen seconds after they open their mouth its apparent they don't know what the Hell they're talking about.

When I was coming up, I didn't pretend to know anything I didn't. I'd admit when I was a newb about something, shut my mouth, open my ears, and get an education. I've found that most of the time, the guys that KNOW their shit will appreciate the humility and share what they know.
