Remote Start T Harness for 03-06 Silverados?
Why is it that nobody sells these anymore. Been trying to find out that question for about year or so. I can't seem to find an alternative to not cutting or splitting into the column harness. Do they not sell them anymore cause they are a fire hazard???

It's not hard to wire up one into the existing harness, but if you ever remove the remote start to sell vehicle, then you will have to add some wire for the one you cut in half. I chose not to use a T harness because it's hard enough getting the wires tucked under the column in stock form, and another plug harness would be a pain. There's a great write-up on a Yukon forum I followed

So your looking for the Bull Dog security GM12 T-harness. I searched for like 5 months randomly on google and ebay and what not. I finally found one like a year ago. It worked great but was very challenging to make it fit inside the steering column shroud. The harness is very bulky because of the wire guage. I ended up messing up the clips on my column shroud and had to pick one up from a junk yard. Ended up costing me a lot more that just trimming some wire insulation back and soldering to it.
I had never used a harness before but have installed several remote starts. I would suggest just getting your wire strippers and sliding the insulation back without cutting the wire. Wrap new wire around and solder it. If for any reason you ever remove the remote start you can just cut away the new wire where you soldered and tape everything back up.
