Default Removing A/C Clutch Relay, and Condenser Fan Relay from engine bay... ???

Im slowly working on a wire tuck on my 88 CRX Hf. I already removed my A/C lines, compressor, bracket, condenser, etc... all thats left is the wires that run over from the two relays behind the pass headlight. What can i do about removeing these wires all together since i wont be running a/c anyways?? Do i need to trace them back to wherever they are connected and 'unpin' them?? or can i just cut them back and tape off the ends?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

if i were you i would just tuck them away in where you cant see them just incase you ever want a/c again or if you ever decide to sell you can get more for the car cuz of the a/c

thought about that, but i only paid $200 for this thing, no matter what i do, i should get more out of it if i sell... lol

The relays im not actually that worried about, its the long loomed wires coming out of them, running the length of the radiator over to where the a/c compressor usually is. i dont see any reason tucking wires im never gonna use again. i just want them out.

just follow the wires back to the fuse box. the run alone the pass side frame rail and plug into the fuse box, then you can remove the whole harness. there will also be a couple of wires running through the fire wall and under the dash, but i cut these off with enough room to splice, incase i want ac back. Its very easy

remember that "AC" was a dealer option back then, so they had to make it moduler, for ease of installation. so it will all come out in one piece
