exactly what it says, just looking for tips and hints that have helped anyone with theirs. I hate fucking wiring, but love the look. Do you have to lengthen everything? Just trying to get some inside advice.

depends on where you want your fuse box.
i ran mine under my dash inside.
some of your stock wiring you can hide fairly easy
and wire the motor outside of the car, did mine in the car and boyyy it was a pain.

my :2cents:

out.

It depends how you do it and what you tuck. One of the ways I've done it before only calls for lengthing only the passanger side body harness and roughly seven engine harness wires.

take your battery out
unplug the fuse box from the bottom
pull it through the firewall
headlight wiring pull through door plug area on both side

The only wires I can remember Extending were The Front harness for HEadlights and just a couple of plugs for the motor..

other than that i cant think off the top of my head.. I would just have to do it!! lol

Then sure the battery cable and started/alt maybe... GL man.. If I was you i would just DIY Saves money and will broading you knowledge on some things...

well what i do is, i de loom, & de electrical tape ALL the wires and run them behing the fire wall. then separate all the plugs and route them where you want them to go, so then you can see if you need to extend any wires and what not

Peter has less in his car though. Turning the Brake MC is easy, just annoying. And all you have to do is re-run the wiring to the plugs. But Peter's car still has the blower and everything under the dash too.
