Looks like he moved it behind the PCM. There are a couple threads detailing how to do this if you're interested.

To the OP, looks great! Keep up the good work.

Thanks guys, I located it behind the pcm you can see it zip tied in the second picture. Also its just your ASR not cruise control. You can either run wires to keep it in function or just unplug it. But hopefully I can start getting some polished pieces and start polishing some parts as well.

Looks good! I'm doing this to my 01 WS6 soon.

I will recomend something, before I was able to repaint the engine bay and after the wire mod, I bought those plastic barb hole covers and painted them to match. They were great to cover the holes left after the wire mod. I left them until I had the time to paint the eng bay.

Job well done, now relocate the driver sound ground down a bit, and relocate the hood latch cable. The hood latch cable is very easy, you don't even have to cut like the main wire relocation. Just run the hood latch cable near the driver side headers, below the ABS block, under the fuse panel, and into the latch. Very easy to do.

Consider a new fuel line like mine too

I like the way the windshield wiper fluid reservoir and that plastic piece above it looks painted. Great looking engine bay!
