Default EJ1 Civic wire tuck

I've decided to do a wire tuck this week, not sure how far I'm going to go with it, but we shall see

Beginning product.


Driver side with cruise control


Taking out cruise and holding the light harness


The hole I drilled and pulled the wires through, along with that metal box thingy.


Fender well with wires tucked away


Not sure what I will do with this side yet, a lot of work to tuck these away...cut and soder

Wow that is a horrible way to tuck your bay. I think you need to look at the tuck thread and find out how to do things the right way. I think you mean ej not eg.

props in going ahead with such a project... I know I've thought twice about doing it and have given up halfway myself...

But damn... hole that you drilled? Looks like you took a can opener to it

I'm not done with the hole yet, the first one was a bitch to do so i started prying it with pliers. Going to put something there so the wired don't get cut.

there saying that is the wrong way to do it. take the harness back through the fire wall and run the wires like through that way. but hell its your car.

dude that hole is so big, you should have thought this through and not just decided to jump in without any equipment. I mean you used duck tape for christ's sake.

I'm no genius but I think you may have compromised safety overall.

I wouldn't want to get hit on that fender if I were you. I know Honda makes the body or frame of the car with stress points. I think that is what those holes are under the bay.

And now that you added a tennis ball sized hole on both sides. If I were you I would have a professional patch that up somehow...Also leave it to like professionals (or just know how really) to do the wiring stuff. Because duck tape should not be used as electrical tape.

Not trying to be a dick at all. I would just want to stress "safety" over anything else.
