    Default Wire tuck on the Rex! Updated pic!

    Updated pic at the bottom!
    Well I finished up the wire tuck today on the Rex. I have already moved the injector resistor box, and driver side headlight wiring. Today I moved the passenger side headlight wiring, fuse box, and the huge connectors next to the fuse box.

    Here is a pic of before I started on the tuckin.

    Here is after!

    Wiper motor wiring.

    The throttle body mounted map sensor wiring.

    The fuse box's new location under the dash.



    I ran the headlight, corner light, and bumper light and fan wiring through the same hole as the wiring for the door, and into the fender.

    Ignore all the dirty stuff, that's all gettin cleaned up tomorrow, and I have a plug ordered from Honda to plug that hole in the firewall where the AC condensor lines were. Thanks for any comments!

    And here is now after removing the gas tank charcoal canister, the heater and AC, clutch cable, radiator catch jug, wiper arms, some more random stuff, and plugging the holes in the firewall with the plugs I ordered from Honda.

    Yeah it's a lot of wiring, and takes some time to do a good job. But so worth it!

    Get rid of it. Unhook all the lines going to it, cap the ones where they hook up on the throttle body. The only one you need to worry about is the one going to the fuel tank, I always put a peice os hose on it and run it down between the firewall and rear crossmember.

    Very nice. Hiding wires always makes a Honda motor stand out so nicely. At some angles, It looks like it's just floating in the bay. I would imagine that it makes a few things easier to get to.

    Will that get the clutch cable too hot though, and make it go bad quicker?

    ^That's not a ps bracket, it's just a brace that runs from the front of the engine to the engine mount.
