as far as the connections on the inside of the hood. I found out that certain size connectors will just barely slip over the size of rivets i have (before you use the rivet gun), when you use the gun it tightens to the connector. I needed my girlfriends little hands to hold the connetor ,over the rivet, on the inside of the hood, until i could use the rivet gun. kind of a pain but worth it i think

^Same, I didn't really get that far into detail with mine. All my ground and wiring are in the back right (drivers side) corner of the engine bay. Then they run up the hood through the wire loom and right into the ram air box. No drilling, bolts, or anything.

Thanks though, you still did a nice job nonetheless

I personally like it alot. I like how you wired it up too, that way you dont have any wires hanging from the hood. I think I am going to try and do this with my ss hood.
