Angry Grounding Kit on Ebay, is it a buy?

I tried doing a search on grounding kits, but at this point I think the search feature has developed to be quite useless.

Ive seen a lot of the grounding kits out their and their all selling around the 75-100 range.

I found a universal kit on ebay for about 27 bucks with shipping. Is it really worth paying trice as much for wires, or is there really no BIG difference.

Thats what I got from ebay and its working fine. The needles are stable after I put them on. U can get wires made for other car because they are all the same. Ground wires are just bunch of wires how high tech can they be?

There can be differences, like the type of wire that is used, the connectors, the quality, etc. I'm also not a fan of those with the leading back to a single grounding point.

Also, when you pay more money for a custom kit, you are getting wires are the cut right to size and are made for your car, so you're paying for convenience, and the install instructions. Also, in my opinion, the shorter the wire length, the better. So when you buy a universal kit, you may have a lot of excess wire, and it's not like you're expected to cut and recrimp.

If you like skinny wires, a non-tailored fit, and lack of color choices!
