you can run some wires inside the fender to conceal them.

easy... remove:

PS
ABS
Almost all the wiring harnesses
Top radiator hose
Clutch (auto in pic I THINK)
FPR?
Fuel Lines?
Injectors
Alternator?
A bunch of vacuum lines

And the list goes on....

How do you do that? Easy. Remove air conditioning, power steering, washer reservoir and all lines, etc...

weerrrdd. the lack of radiator hoses is the giveaway cuz u can run w/o vtec. and u can put ur battery in the trunk. can't re-route radiator hoses tho. this is a trailer queen to the fullest
