Default DIY: Cuban Wire Harness Relocation! ('93 GS300)

no cutting, no soldering, dont even need to open the driver door for this one! hope this helps!!

1. unplug the harness from the fuse box in the ENGINE BAY!



2. unplug the airbag sensor underneath the fender and the two plugs to the reservoir.



3. pull down the harness and inspect the wires. (you can see where i had it run before)



4. find this hole just above where the harness comes though from the interior.




5. reroute the harness through the hole.



6. watch out for the hood dampener when shutting the hood.



7. and finally! slam the **** out of the front with your coilovers to celebrate no more harness!

That doesn't interfere with your hood at all? I did something similar but extended all the wires, and routed it under the master, and around the strut tower.

I have a question. Im pretty much as low as i can go in the front with my aristo which isnt that low due to the tire hitting the engine bay tubs with any minimal turn as i see you are/did with the second picture you have posted. My tires are not that fat in front and it still hits. how do you go about not hitting that?

Specs in front 18x9 et -2 on a 225/40/18 tire.

thanks
