Default Gettin a tuck

Wuddup Fellas
The latest edition of project tuner has inspired me to do a wire tuck in my engine and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good thread or website that shows how. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thats definently a crazy thread and some amazing work, but I was really looking for something with some step by step instructions. The only problem with that link is that there's so much that I don't know where to even begin.

Do I detect a hint of sarcasm? lol.

Doing a wire tuck is a custom job and theres not gonna be too many step by step hold your hand instructions. Your either gonna have to go for it and use some common sense, a wiring diagram and a lot of free time.....or buy a chase bays wire tuck harness and cheat...even though they look so good. I'm assuming you saw the crx in honda/tuning and drooled all over the magazine like I did.
