Just wondering is this possible to do whilst still maintaining ABS, PAS and AC. NOT getting rid of any of those but i hate all the cluster fook of wires and tubes there are in the engine bay!
 
Yes, It's possible

Can relocate the headlight looms behind the wings safely.
Can put the fuse box inside the car without cutting any wires (fact)

I know you have already said you aren't.... but... get rid of the abs, lol.
 
I saw someone stick the abs modulator under the centre of the dash and relocate all the lines. Il try find the thread.
 
Been looking into doing a wire tuck myself, has anyone got any decent links?
 
honda tech has a few good threads i've just been enlightened too!
 
I remember browsing some threads on there a while back, but now that i'm actually looking into it I can't seem find it! typical... have you got a link at all?
 
Bumping this up as i've went head first into this tuck and now have both sides tucked the best I can, however I am going to have to lengthen and extend a few wires. Namely the +ve and -ve wires that go from the engine bay to the fuse box and the two sets of wires that plug into the PS relay box (unless i can squeeze this under that dash somewhere. Can someone recommend me where to get the same type of wire and crimp terminals needed to make a longer feed from the engine bay to now the glove box!
 
How easy is it too tuck the headlight wiring?
Thinking of giving it a bash on my mates car soon, Did you have to take the dash out? Keep reading that you do on other forums

Any decent guide/thread you used? Ive checked a few out on honda-tech

Dont wanna tuck too much pretty much just the headlight wiring and maybe the fuse box but the engine loom seems pretty pointless on a 1.4, Might try tidy it up abit so its less cluttered

Got any pics of your bay right now?
 
Yeah I have just finished Semi tucking my bay, its really not that scary as long as the wire goes to and from the correct place you can put it where ever you want :)
 
Got pics of your semi tuck? Whats that then headlight wiring, fusebox and battery?
Not all that scared im a semi qualified electrician anyways just wanted to know whats involved in it before i give it a go, Biggest question is if the dash needs to come out as assed with that :nono:
 
I'll get pics up of what i've dont shortly. Just have a few wires to lengthen and the power cables to extend into the cabin. I didnt have to take the dash off but if your were to do the engine harness you would need to.
 
Good to here dash dosnt need removed

What you all moved that you need too move the power cable into the car?

Also did you have to extend the headlight wiring? Been told it fits if its done properly but its abit tight

Headlight wiring can be moved no bother, its all the other crap thats tight! lol Because i have AC, PS and ABS all these wires must also follow the same route as the headlight wiring. The PS relay wiring on mine will probably need lengthening as i dont see how im going to fit that box in underneath the dash. Also one of the plugs that connects to the fuse box in the car im going to lengthen as it is tawt when the glove box is open and will eventually break if I dont. If you move the fuse box from the engine bay to the glove box you will need longer +ve and -ve cables from it back to the battery and the cable on the engine harness. I have got cable to match the thicker wire in the harness wiring, just need thinner stuff before i can get on with lengthening the required bits. :nice:
 
Cheers for the info :nice:

Probably give it a check tomorrow see whats what then start on saturday
 
Ill upload for you tmo, there is a little shot on my instagram if you have it?

This is the tuck I done and the only wires that were extended were for the battery as its in the boot.

Headlight loom etc is easy enough!
