that does look nice with the tucked away wires, hell i want to do that with my battery still up there, you need to get rid of that last spot of stock hose then it be uber clean.

dangggggggg that's clean! how much did it cost you to relocate?

JamesT1 · 10-27-2009, 07:38 PM

I'm glad you guys like it! I'm planning on rerouting all the hoses for all the vsvs somewhere hidden.

As for the cost, It wasn't too much, it just took a lot of time to re-route all the wires as I moved the fuse boxes to the trunk.

I'll get some better photos soon.

^ yeah seriously.... relocating the fuseblocks?!

JamesT1 · 10-27-2009, 08:50 PM

Here's how I ran them to the trunk. I covered these with sleeving and split loom.

Here are all the sensors relabeled:

I ended up dividing the wiring harness into three sections, passenger fender, driver fender, and center. I had to drill a new hole to run the wires in the center so they weren't visible (and add a grommet and such, of course)

Here's the center hole I made:

Driver's side:

Passenger side:

Also, here's the last photo of I have of the new home for the battery and fuse boxes. It was made to fit perfectly in the spare tire well.

I'll see if I can put I DIY together if I can remember all the steps. Basically, my advice is this: do one circuit at a time and double check everything. Also, try to use as few splices as possible. I ended up buying new connectors and pins for nearly everything just to limit the number of splices.

Massive hails to you man, I dont maintain the energy levels to even think about attempting such a project haha. Great job and unique I am sure.

JamesT1 · 10-28-2009, 02:08 PM

I'm glad you guys like it! It took a lot of time and headache to get everything working properly again. I'm still nowhere near done with the car or the engine bay. I'll keep you guys posted as things progress...
