Coach Controls

I need to get wiring for my 54 Panel and I have been looking at this one. It looks like a really nice and well American made product. Has anyone use this?

Wow, that's an expensive solution. Will you have use for all the features?

That kit would bring your truck into the 21st century. But for almost 800 bucks I would pass on it.

This is awesome and I'm gonna reach out to them to see if this works with the coyote control pack (or if it's not even a concern)!

I'm looking to build a truck that has the historic personality and distinct, unique look but with the modern features I've recently come to love (I had always driven super cheap vehicles up until about a year and a half ago and fell in love with some of them).

I know I could probably find a super cheap wiring kit or even scavenge one, but it wouldn't fit what I've already started! (and I finally upload some pics in my profile area)

Try to find other peeps that have used their products before. When it comes to products like theirs too many have come and gone leaving the users high and dry.

I would if I did use it, but probably wouldn't really miss them if I didn't have them. What I like most about it is the board mounted relays and the terminals. I would probably get this one that is less: Coupe-23 Wiring Kit [COUPE-23] - $445.00 : Coach Controls, Street Rod Wiring Kits, Universal Wire Kits, and Wiring Harness Accessories

I like the idea of verifying if others have used it and overall company reviews...so, has anyone actually used this company's products?

What little I could find about them looks like they've been around a little over a decade and mostly did racing wiring harnesses.
