people charge about 300-500 for a full wire tuck. it isnt hard. im about to do one in the hatch once i get my car ready for a bottle and take the engine out for some upgrade.
taking small steps at a time but almost ready for the bottle :goodjob:

there is a write up in the current issue of honda tuning. otherwise, google it.

basically extending and hiding all wires in the engine bay.

How do you protect the wires from the road? Would making a locking/removable skid plate be a good idea?

You dont have to extend any wires! On an eg/dc or ek chassis. Done it plenty of times. Only thing you have to do is make a sub harness to plug the 2 outer dash plugs in the the engine harness plugs. LMK if you would like to have this done. 300-500 is about right. But is what you have accessable>?

same here, but yea the headlight wires dont need to be extended at all, the only thing hard about it is time. but if your tuckin the engine harness a lot of wires need to be extended or shortened, ive made plenty and done a lot of tucks as well.. i generally like doing the tucks with the motor out.

keep your mudguards, OR route the wires where they will see little to no water and debris.


I do wire tucks.
