Default Replacing Engine Harness on SC300

Guys,

About to dive into my engine harness swap and was wondering if anyone has done this before and how long it took? Also, are there any major parts that need to be removed?

I have laid out the new one on the engine so I can remove the old, and insert the new plug on each one so I know exactly where everything goes. Anything else I should do?

Thanks,
Jonny

Guys,

I am not exactly sure what to take pictures of at this point! Disconnect all the plugs and ECU plugs from passenger footwell, thread it through the firewall, disconnect all the old plugs and reconnect the new ones...

Easier said than done I might add. This harness is a paint to get to release some of the connectors I have found it is easier to cut out the harness every 2 feet or so instead of trying to thread it around everything. Will keep you posted

butchering up the harness huh. we always have the harness on the motor before installing it, then we just feed the ecu plug through the firewall.

Well I don't feel like pulling the motor to get it out
