jdmdikk's wire tuck..

[jdmdikk]

So i stood without a job and have alot of time in my hands and been thinking about doing a wire tuck for the longest..at 1st i didnt kno what steps where involved with doing a tuck..but i met a CTVTEC member a few days ago and he was kind enough(lol)to teach me the secrets.This is a ls vtec that i built and it has 0 miles and when it gets started is because everything was done correctly..the block is cast iron painted and my tranny will be the same color with all the brackets in semi gloss black and valve cover will be bronze with polished letters..so far i have fully completed my engine harness..i had to extend almost all my wires and solder,wire loom them all,,so yes ,,it does take time..but heres a few pics and hopefully i will get a good weather so that i can remove my dash and get started on the body tuck..please leave positive or negative comments and advice if any..




UPDATE:Yesteday i decided to work on the body tuck a little bit..heres a few pics of what i did ..
(Car taken apart)


(Dash removed to run the headlight harness and abs and fuse box into the cabin)

(Started to run the passenger side but then jumped over to the drivers side since i like doing hard things..lol)

(Drivers side,and i made sure to mark each wire by numbers with masking tape and also extended some wires and marked those wires 2,,so that when i run the extended wires into the car i would just solder and plug in and the drivers side would be done)



(Where i made 2 holes and ran the extended wires through and inside view of the finished wires and all done with the drivers side..)



(Finished Driver's Side..)

thanx..its easy to do a wire tuck but time consuming and a p.i.t.a at times..thank god that im used to soldering and taping..i will work on the passenger side today and possibly place my dash back on ..and then power wash the engine bay and repaint fresh gloss black..o yea and buy some block off's from Honda.
