      If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

          Be sure to extend 1 wire at a time and solder every connection! The only wires that really need extending are the ones for the lights(on drivers side).

            well normally yes but i have HID's so no extending needed , and i already test fit to make sure the Hig beam connector fit and it does, since i only have HID's on lows atm, plus im relocating the fuse box, and J-specCb4 told me I would have to get creative there lol, but he didnt say I had to extend wire but it would be close

                thanks guys, as many have said before the hardest part will be putting the engine back in lol, trying to be as careful as possible not to scratch the paint, im takin the crank pully off this time, in the past the pully has been the only thing to hit the wall in the bay so i hope ill be good

                  Take pulley off, tranny in first, bolt the mount on the tranny and tranny bolt loosely, let it down and bolt in drivers side mount and leave it loose too. Bam. NO scratches. Then bolt in the rear and front mounts. You'll have to play with the engine some most likely.

                    I remember back when I did my wire tuck.

                    Too bad I like my PS and CC, because they clutter it up
                    wat?

                              ok how i did it was i took the wiper motor out, and you'll see there's an opening in the corner closest to the strut, that goes all the way through, now you wont be able to fit the biggest connector through, so what i did was bend the edge of it up a bit with pliers, and on the other side you'll see the oval opening with a small opening right above it, i just too that piece of meta the separates the 2 out and popped all the connectors through, also, you see that small clear'ish box that has all the black wires going to it,those are just ground wires( i hope), you'll need to cut the ground wire for the connectors that will stay in the bay, there's 2 of them at least
