Finally got things cleaned up after moving some wires out of the engine bay.

I am happy with it now.

Makes a HUGE difference in the cleanliness of the engine compartment. Have you done the pass. side?

Yes. But there isn't much there. Unlike the drivers side with everything on the left being relocated.

After doing my wire tucks on the passenger and driver side…… I really can’t stand looking at the harness across the firewall (even though I tucked it under the pinch weld).
Some day the dash will come out and I’ll hide that part too……. Some day!

Will your fender liner still fit properly? I also want to note that those crimp connectors dont look all the reliable to me. And a couple of the wires look stretched coming off the unreliable crimp connectors.

Grab a 1/4" vac line and split it down the long way and use it to line the pass-thru where the red power wire goes through the fender. This will prevent it from rubbing the insulation on the edge and potentially shorting to metal.
