What Leads to Buy

Postby Andy_R » Sat 21.05.2005, 13:45

I've had the same problem with Magnecor leads that I notice several other people have had (they come apart when you take them off). Could anybody suggest an alternative?<br><br>Thank you.

Sorry-<br><br>and been pretty happy with them.  They have a lot of different options, also.  Found them to be quick and helpful, but can not speak to the longevity of them, as I have only had them in for a couple of months now...<br><br>I think Nitroman has had them for longer?

Matt<br><br>In the end I was persuaded to try and get Magnecor to replace the broken lead - as I had inherited the leads with the car, I didn't think I was in a position to do this, but the guy at Magnecor was happy to send a new one after he had inspected the faulty one.<br><br>Thanks for the reply though.

Yeah, Magnecor is warranted for life, not just to the original purchaser. If yours are getting dirty contact me & I'll tell you how to make them look new again.

I've had the Kingsbourne on for about 3 years now. Had to remove them one time to do something else. Unlike the Magnecor they come off easily. I've had no problems with them & when I contacted him to get more wire-separators he sent me a half-dozen for free. I'm totally sold on them. They may not have a life-time warranty but he is a great guy to work with.

I had purchased my Magnecor wires back in January and have not had any problmes with the wire sticking on the plugs or the wires falling apart that other people have experianced. Not sure if they have fixed things but I am happy with them.
