My note didn't make it last time:
For the alternator side, Autotech also carries heavy duty alterator wires, may be worth a look. I installed the ND alternator harness on my car. I cleaned all the contact points thorougly and put electrical contact solution on them. I have been happy with the fit and performance so far. For the ground side, it seems I read about using an A3 ground wire as an upgrade, but I can't really remember, anyone else remember this?

After much rain here in RI, my GLI refused to start. Again. This has happened before- coil tests OK, when testing for spark the spark is super weak. Futzing with the plug wires and ground strap is enough to finally make the car start, but this is getting somewhat crazy. Just ordered new plug wires from parts4vws, but I also want to replace all of the battery wiring (ground, starter, alternator wires). In my last GLI, I used some stock autozone replacement 4 gauge battery wires, which solved my starting issues, but were not great quality. I was thinking of the New Dimensions MOWA series, but it seems like a lot of money for such a simple product. Anyone else got any ideas or advice? Appreciate it-

Andrew
