Hey Gang:

Got the front fenders off of the car and am in the process of hiding all the wires in the fenderwells... Piece of cake for the wires that run up from the firewall to the front of the car along both fenders, but --

Where in the hell do you hide the main harness bundle that runs along the firewall??? I know that I have seen some people just put it under the seam along the front of the firewall where the brake lines are, but I want it hidden... Seems to me that I have read that some people hide it in the hollow behind the firewall under the wipe cowl and that would be fine, but how do you get it up there...

Anyone have any suggestions for me as to where to hide the main bundle?

Thanks...

Take the dash out and put it behind there.

What I did was hid mine under the pinchweld in the engine bay. I removed all the plastic loom that was on it, and wrapped the harness in electrical tape, which made it thinner by about 35% I'd say. This allowed me to hide it a little more
