To tuck the sections of wires running to your headlights and such.. you'll pull them into the car. get a 1 1/2 inch circle cutting blade thing for the drill. you'll drill right in front of the door. you'll have to remove fenders. get your wires pulled through. extend them as needed. Splicing one at a time. Then zip tie up.
on the drivers side. There's a plug in front of the door. prolly 1 1/2 x 2 inches. You can pull the wires through that. The passenger side, you'll have to drill a hole.
as for the main plugs. pull them through, extend as needed, one wire at a time. take the circle bit and drill a hole at the bottom of the firwall dead center. run wires through and plug back in. I have no pics of that.. but might be able to get some later
I had some of mine but I can't find them
am talking about these lines?
those are brake lines... those stay unless you have a flaring tool and more lines to relocate. This is how mine is... But it's a full custom brake line tuck
ok thankz for the info bro
do you have any more pics bro?
not any that would be helpful... and if you've never messed with something like this.. DO NOT ATTEMPT it. Get someone that has ran brake lines. Remember, those things help you not crash...lolol... anything ran wrong will result in failure
thanks bro i wont mess with it then
Listen to the Purp. He knows what he is doing.

if its not a show car its not worth it. you loose alot more than what you gain, trust me on this y0!
lol wut... I've done a few tucks.. you lose nothing but wires from the bay.. and gain a cleaner bay...
Here's one me and a couple of friends did. The way we did it, we didn't drill holes or anything. We took out the entire blower/heater core. I don't drive the car in the rain so i didn't care. We ran the wires through that hole and no need for stretch or anything. The headlight harnesses are ran through the fenders. The brakes line are a bit more complicated then we thought so we just removed the abs and left it at that. I don't recommend messing with the brake line unless u know what u are doing. If you still want to do it, make sure you get a metric flaring tool and NOT stardard size. The bay isn't done yet either just close to it lol.

not nick picking... but the way you ran the wires would be able to be seen. You drill the holes to get the harness lower and out of sight. I also, removed both boxes from under the dash and made block off plates. But since the heater core hole sits on a flat part of the firewall, you're able to see the lines. Just preference I guess. But I like all mine hidden. Bay looks good. Should have gotten rid of the fuel set-up while you were at it and also should have flipped the booster to hide the vaccumm(sp) hose from the booster to the manifold. Also, take the ground wire and mount it on the back of the valve cover and mount to the side of the strut tower. Just some helpful ideas. Again, the bay looks good
Yeh, i can agree with you that it can be seen but just barely. Thanks for the ideas lol I'll be sure to do that when we start working on this thing again. It got way more work to do. Also, thanks for the compliment, same goes for u too
will anyone would like to help me in the near future?
