OEM battery cables are only 3 dollars and some change each and a whole lot easier. I'd be willing to bet the supplies at Lowe's would cost you more than that.

Lowe’s wire is mostly house / appliance wire ( for AC )
High amp welding cable needed for DC / battery cables
Not a place to skimp $$

What wires are you talking about? It sounds like you mean the loom wires rather than the battery cables but you don't say.

Buying non-genuine or not fit-for-purpose could end up costing more in the long run through damaged components and in the meantime give you reduced performance.

If you want your cart done right, please go with OEM stuff.

I used a bunch of generic parts originally and had nothing but problems with them. It just wasn't worth the $ saved.

Follow TahoeDawg's [Revolution Golf Cars] advice and you won't be disappointed.

And Welcome to the forum!

From David Hicks at Revolution Golf Cars where else? See his signature on TahoeDawgZ71's post earlier in this thread.

Not only parts but great advice too.

Thank you. And just an FYI for those of you who don't know. There's no way I can put all of the OEM parts on our web store, so even if you don't see an item there, call me and it can be ordered.
