Does anyone have any input at all good ad or indifferent on the comparison between these two companies and their respective wiring harnesses?
I have done some web browsing and there is not really a consensus on either..
Any information would be helpful
Thanks

I had mine done by vintage wiring, very pleased and he will work with what you need.

I avoided posting in this thread because you asked for a comparison. I know nothing about the harnesses offered by Mogger or Vintage so no fair way to offer a comparison.
I can offer a personal experience.
I have purchased a couple harnesses from Walcks. They are beautiful. True works of art.

I wanted to use Vintage Wiring mostly because I live in Maine and wanted to support a company from Maine.� I emailed and called numerous times to get a quote for my 3a (2014).� To this day I have never received a call/email/telegraph or passenger pigeon in response.�
I purchased a Walck's and it was easy to install and well manufactured.�
The biggest piece of the pie for me is - Can I get help if I need it and with Walcks its a guaranteed YES.

Kirk;
Don't know if you ever got your harness and this thread is a little older BUT FYI, Vintage Wiring of Maine is actually in North Carolina! Not that that has anything to do with the product quality but someone said they wanted to support a company from Maine. :o Go figure. I looked at both and went with Walcks about 5 years ago on my harness. I don't recall now why I went that direction as they both look great and I am sure the other is of very good quality as well. I can tell you that 5 years later my harness is still looking and working great- no problems what so ever. Don't stop short at just the harness- get the battery wires as well. My 6 volt battery works so much better with the big heavy battery cable and looks correct as well.
