Default I got bored...wire tuck.

<u>Pictures of the drivers side tuck on pg. 2</u>

I decided to do a wire tuck on my car tonight. I only had enough energy to do the passenger side, drivers side will be done later this week. The passenger side took me about an hour and a half, taking my time.

All taken apart


Passenger side plug


Passenger side plug de-pinned


Part way through


Through the fender area and zip tied.




A view of the inside


A work in progress, gotta have the A/C when it's 114 outside


And.....my first level of security

I will post pics for sure, I am debating on wether or not to yank the cruise control, I will probably do away with the charcoal canister also. Has anybody taken the canister out on a setup like this? (99-00 w/ stock motor) I know there will be a few sensors without a home if I to take it out.

If you take it out, you will have a CEL. The only way to avoid it is to go OBDI.

Yeah not quite ready for that, maybe when I swap. Will it throw a CEL even if I leave tehm pluged in and just tuck them away somewhere?

Its simple, all you need is a tiny flat head screw driver like for cell phones. You stick the screw driver under the metal clips on the end of the wire inside the plug and pull the wires out the back. I got a full set of little screw drivers at Sears for abot $20.

good stuff. i like how you showed exactly what you did.

this will help many people.

sad to say... having a/c will ruin the wire tuck look. but i understand you not wanting to take it out.

Yeah I was just looking at the car and with the A/C and cruise control in you won't really even be able to "see" a difference at a glance. I have already taken the brackets off the drivers side shock tower, removed the winshield squirter lines and resivoir as well as tucking the vaccume line for the cruise control.

NICE dude. I'm gonna start on my wire tuck when I tear apart my hatch and get it ready for paint. I can't wait, seems like fun.

...and they would in a heartbeat if they didn't know you. We also have about 5-6 motion sensor activated lights and a small arsenal.
