i think there is a lot of forums on the faq part dude.. im trying to do one myself as we speak.. i know for sure hidding the head lights harness shuld not b that hard just hide them on the fender rails or inside the fender and the battery im going to relocate to the back of the car as for the engine fuse box u route it to the passenger kick panel and try to mount it the best u can .. the rest of the wires is where im kinda stuck.. i wana get rid of the emmision stuff but dont want a cel to come up so im still thinking

the battery is in the bay for a reason


we tucked my friends H22a, looks cool, but if something ever screws up, he has to take off his fenders

Search is your best friend BTW

You could've put a link to it since you took the time to post here. I just searched and came up with 72 threads and frankly their's not much help in any of them. The thread that's 22 pages long doesn't apply to what I'm looking for, and the tuck thread in the FAQ's is very vague.....

Yes, you have to lengthen your headlight wires and your windshield wiper wires, I havn't had to lenghten any of my engine harness wires on my motor, but I drilled my hole about an 1" - 1.5" higher than most so I wouldn't have to lenghten any.. My wires are still hid pretty good behind the motor though.. so it looks good .. Anything else i'm open for it.. when I get home, I think I have a website on my laptop that I can post on here for you, but that'll be tomorrow sometime ...

Wiretucking is 40% information/ 60% imagination. Look though the tuck/shaving bay thread and just gather your thoughts there. The most imporant thing you can take from this is ..measure twice, cut once

also i heard some sensors use low voltage so wire length can play a major roll in signal strength.

you wont be extending any wires that long for it to matter. Shielding however is a absolute must for ALL o2 wires and dizzy wires this is not an option
