Default EG wire tuck teaser

EDIT: MORE PICS ON PAGE TWO!

One pic is all you get for now sorry guys, almost out of space on we-todd. Also sorry about the dirty engine bay, the reason I am hiding all the wires is because it is getting painted soon...



relocated fuse box too... soon to relocate battery as well.

if you are in socal and want this treatment done to your ride hit me up, I will do it for cheaper than any shop...

EDIT: I know this pic only shows passenger side but I do hide all wires on both sides... more pics later...

EDIT AGAIN: fuse box is relocated under dash behind glove box, it's tucked up out of sight but I used a hinge-like system to allow it to flip down in case you blow a fuse and need to replace it this is how I will do any customer cars as well...

Nice! How much you charging for that work, and did you cut and lengthen or just tuck it in somewhere?

I rerouted all the wires that need to go to the front of the car (headlights, rad. fan, turn signals, etc.) through the frame on the outside. All the plugs for the engine harness (three gray plugs on each side) are relocated inside the car behind the firewall, as is the fuse box. all engine harness stuff is routed down and back to the firewall. Some wires do require cut and lengthen. All wires that were cut and lengthend are heat shrinked, the rest are loomed and electrical taped.

I charge $250 for the complete job. That includes the supplies to cut and lengthen the wires - unless you want me to make the extensions match the wires that they are on, in which case you will need to supply a harness. Otherwise the wire extensions will look like this: red/green wire-red wire-red/green wire since there will be an unmatched extension in the middle. But if you supply an extra harness I can cut that up to make the extensions so all the colors match. It doesn't really matter since all the extended parts are hidden anyway and no one will ever see them, but I did mine that way because I'm **** about it.

read your diy, good job and it looks really clean. I routed some stuff a little different but the EG has different holes in different spots.

Mine took me about 15 hours but now that I know how to do it I could probably do it in 8 or 9...

oh yeah I guess I should mention that - fuse box is relocated under dash behind glove box, it's tucked up out of sight but I used a hinge-like system to allow it to flip down in case you blow a fuse and need to replace it this is how I will do any customer cars as well...
