I need about 50ft of split loom for my truck. Preferably red. I dont know what size i should get, i want to dress up my engine, but i also have some wires run under the frame i need to wrap. I just don't know where to get it. Home Depot? Somone give some suggestions please. Thanks.

I've seen that stuff at Lowes and possibly Home Depot before. I think Radio Shack sells it too, but I don't remember seeing any red. Maybe you can paint it.

http://www.cableorganizer.com/bulk/bulk-wire-loom.html couple choices and colors. For under the truck I'd get black unless you plan on washing under it for show truck status

split-loom will not protect the wires you run under the truck...you might want to re-think that part of the puzzle.

Check out **THIS** product that I plan to use for my stereo power and signal wires. I think he has other colors available.

Harbor Freight Tools has it for pretty cheap too, if you have one nearby.

You should also be able to buy split loom at most automotive stores like Pep Boys or Autozone. Depending on what you want to cover, you will need sizes in 1/2, 5/8, and probably 3/4".
I just started the engine dress up, but, I went with a different option with SVH in red. It takes a little more work, costs a little more, but, it gives a nice result. There is a pic in my photos if you want to see how it looks as another option.

i use this same stuff for all my stereo wiring... in the truck and the house. i have all my amps mounted in the bed of the truck... all my signal/speaker/ power wires are run in this. i used it in my home stereo to dress up the wires... and make a long run from the equipment. i couldnt hide all the wires under the carpet... so i hid them all in this stuff. 2.5" diameter if i recall.

anyhow... make sure you get all your wires in it the first time... its hard to chase one wire you might have forgot.

Check out NAPA. I got a 50 foot roll for about $15.00 where as Autozone & Pep Boys want about $4.50 to $5.00 for a 10 foot roll. Don't know about colors since I got black.
