Well it was raining all morning to the afternoon so I really didn't get to work on it all day. Here it what was done, wires!
The inside is still a bit of a mess but the exterior is done and it looks clean!

Looks good man!! ITs a piece of cake when you remove the abs and heater out of the way.

I would recomend also removing the wires under the dash board (AT wires and those pesky abs ones)

Youre doing it man!!!

Did you have fun extending the engine wire harness ? That was a pain for me, i didnt know they were there ,so they cought me by surprize.

Thanks, actually I am going to have to say this is easier then when I did a wire tuck the first time... but I think thats just cause I went out and bought the best wire strippers i could find. L]

make sure you insulate the fuse box cause you playing with fire next to the gas tank! Also make sure you sodder them wires good or you will run into blown fuses ecu and components.
