ahhh... I didn't know that.

that would make a lot of sense, because I have a coversion harness, it's a tight fit just for my ECU!


I think When I do it, I'll see about maybe keeping the fuse box inside the engine bay, but maybe relocating it somewhere, partially out of sight. I'll have to extend a few power/ground wires, but I don't think it'd be any HARDER than tucking it under the dash!

And I can retain HEAT!!! lol

another bump for a great write up.
I'm anxiously awaiting those interior pics!

I'll have some tommorow, Not much to post up really. Just a shot of the redone PS, and I'll take a few of the DS.
I'll get some interior pics for you aswell, but I gotta tell you, I didnt shorten ANYTHING, so it's kinda jumbled in there......nor is anything permanently mounted. But you will see.......

No ****, I asked Tyson to put it in the FAQ but he said to just post it in the end of one of the pre-existing threads.
So F it, anybody who'd look in the FAQ would just as soon search, and with a title like "wire tuck" they shouldn't have much trouble finding it
And thanks alot for the comment, BTW

So here you go, this is the Passengerside after I relocated the Ground Box and Radiator Fan Relay to inside the cabin. I had them in the fenderwell but it was tacky and I was tracing wires, so I just redid it.

Here are pics of how I've arranged the wiring inside the cabin.
I've mounted the Ground box by the kick panel, and the relay is next to it.
The ECU is located behind the center console, so I can easily remove it nightly.
Now as I said before, I haven't shortened any of the wiring so it's not neat at all, but it fits. I don't have the time to shorten it all right now, or time to deal with possible problems that could arise if I do so, so it's not shortened.
But eveything fits nicely, if I could find my ECU cover it'd cover it all.
Tell me what you guys think:

PS 2 things:
1.Who knows a good, free image resizer? I cant keep doing these screen shot sized pics....
2.The wires may look jumbled, but their actually very organized. If you look at my earlier pictures, each plug/components wires are seperately taped.
I just coiled them together, and tucked them upward behind the blower boxes.

I just use MS Paint (comes with Windows on *most* PCs) or Microsoft Image/Fax Viewer even could probably resize them. Otherwise just get a demo of Adobe Photoshop Elements

I started on mine today.
so far I've got all the head-lights and engine harness unplugged and pulled into the engine bay, fender is off, and am ready to start wrappin it through the fenders, etc.

I've been taking pics, so if you need anything/want any taken, just lmk asap, so I can do it while everything is out.

IDK about the realy, but the Ground Boxes grounds out several things, soyes, it grounds out everything, but it does it individually.

Looks great man. Excellent writeup. If only I had the patience to do it myself. I'd rather just pay you to do it!

Hey I'd be glad to do it for the right price.
It took me a long time to do, but I think if I were to do it again, I could get it all done in about 2 days time.
