I put my super dash in and am at the last step of putting my speedometer in, the speedo wires are a little short. Can i ad length to them with out cutting them by crimping a longer wire with female and male coneection (spade or something like that ) and then adding them to the original speedometer wire??
Will this screw up my resistence of the wires alot

hi
it probally would be best to solder the extensions onto the loom and then shrink wrap them will look nice and neat and will not cause a voltage drop,

to be honest bullet or spades will probally do the job fine but its kinda the easy and lasy way out

good to build up soldering skills handy when you want to rebuild switches etc
no problems only solutions

peace darragh
