Hiding wires.. passenger side

[Mavrick]

While i have the inner fenderwells out, i figure it'd be a good time to hide the wire's. I plan on only doing the passenger side right now, as the drivers side would be a lot harder.

How easy is the passenger side?? Any tips etc.? i'll probably start next week sometime.

Hiding the wires on the passenger side is the easiest (side) and best way to figure out what hiding wires is all about.
There is nothing hard about the passengerside; basically what ever you want to hide goes through the back of the strut tower.
I did what you’re asking over 3 yrs ago, along with the drives side. I’ve always sent ppl to this

as a basic guide line. Mansonozz also use this method to do his and once he found out the basics he went on his own direction as many others have.
Believe me hiding wire is not that hard to do. All you really need to do is figure out which way you want to go after that it's easy.
I’d be happy to answer any questions you have if it will help.
If not Mansonozz has a site with some pic. and a write he did on hiding wires.

Believe me it's not nearly as hard as you think.

Wow man, your engine bay looks amazing! I remember seeing the pic of your motor when it was on the stand... looks awesome!

So you say its pretty easy eh? Thats good. The link you gave me is dead though...

Thanks.

I did this and didnt use the links... Just went about it and figured it out. Its not bad, just takes patience and no fear! I am happy with my results, and have yet to have an issue as far as anything failing!

Man, that is what I call hidden wires. that looks super! What are the things going from the shock towers to the firewall(chrome) Is it some type of brace instead of the different type strut tower brace? If so, that is way better. I will feel silly if I am way off base here. Sweet man, sweet.

Those are hood hinges,

Hey don't laugh, I thought that but they looked different and seemed too low and they are not the same as mine(like any of that car is) plus in other pics it shows the strut tower brace and then it is gone. Fine laugh,laugh,laugh it is not the dumbest question ever is it? Ok close but......I wondered how it would support the side to side of the towers too but it was just a question. Now, even my old lady is laughing at me!

It's all good dude, i've made an ass of myself on this a few times too

 

[85GTlover]

So now to add insult to injury I am an ass too? Listen buddy I have had about enough..... just kidding. I too want to hide my wires and have my inner fenders out as well, if you are happy and have no problems could you tell me what you did( in the future) I also want to eliminate all the smog equipment any help on that would be appreciated too.

I hads no idea that there would be so many responces.
I've tried to post this message for the last 30 mins and just wasn't able tobueause of all the traffic .
So let me try this 1 more time.
My original mesage was directed to Mavrick
I just tried the link also and it's dead like you said must be a lot of traffic on Netsnapshot tonight is the only thing I can think of.

Yeap the passenger side is the easiest side because there are very few wires to deal with on that side.
Are you welding up any holes or just painting the engine bay?
If that link I used doesn't start working soon I will Personally send you all the pic I have dealing with hiding wire and a small write I started but never finished to help you see that hiding wires in not nearly as difficult as you think.
I rerouted (hid) just about every wire in the engine bay and I only had to cut and splice 2 sets of wires.
1 set went to the overflow bottle, and the other set went to the A/C compressor.
I'm not and never will be a big believer in cutting and splicing wires, there are just too many potential problems I think.
My theory was what is the big deal if you unplug a connector, re-route (hide) the wires and plug it back together again.

And thanks for the complements , I really appreciate it.

Hey I see you have billet rollers. I am assuming rockers. For the price (over 200) do you feel they are far better than stamped roller rockers? Someone stated unless you have a built motor it is not really worth it. WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THIS SUBJECT?

I figure you deserve the compliments, that motor must have had TONS of hours in on it.. polishing and all.

No rush on the pics etc, as i dont plan to start this till next week.

Jeff
I'm glad you understand, and like I said I'll definitely send you all the pic I have of what I done on hiding wires.
I'm just hoping I can get the POS satellite to finally work properly.

Lets see if this works? And if it does I'll do 2 at a time all night long.

 

[85GTlover]

Works for me!

 

[Mavrick]

Works, those pics are good, i will route mine just the same! You didn't have to lengthen any wires for the passenger side right?

 

[ALMOST STOCK]

One more.

 

[Mavrick]

One more.

Did you have any issues at all on the passenger side, as to lengthening wires/vac lines at all?

Nope nothing on the passenger side needs to be lenghthened. For that matter don't run the MAF wire connector in the hole behind the Strut Tower either, run it under the piping from the TB to outside air. If that makes any since ?
I'm still fighting my pi$$ poor satellite connection, just hang in there it's got to get better I hope
