Finally did wire mod. Write-up, lots of pics. 56k: You're outta luck!
It looks like some of you have moved your battery. How hard was it? What size cable did you use? Any suggestions on how to run the wiire for that? Also any other recommendations for doing this mod? I am planning to do both of these in the near future.
Good write up. I went ahead and filled the holes and I also relocated the ground wires on the front cross bar that are located on each side of the air box I simply moved them under the airbox and then filled those holes as well.
Then I went to the other side and basically did the same type mod with the hood latch cable.
Also like someone noted get a rubber gromment in that hole. I used a small rubber length of tube that I split down the length of the tube as a gromment

A smokin' write up.....
You could shave on the reflection from those fender wells. I plan on reusing the retainer clips and just clip them from below like SIC LSX had mentioned..

So after your filled the holes I assume you re-sprayed the inner fenders w/rattle can since the strut bolt threads are white? Also, what did you clean your engine with to wash it and did you spray it down with CD2 when you were done to make it look so new?
Very nice.

So I just got done doing this mod. It looks great, I'll post a pic soon but one question. Is electrial tape gunna be enough to pervent it from getting wet. I mean I don't plan on driving it through floods or anything like that, just like rain or whatever.
really think im going to do this mod. should be fairly simple since my engine and tranny are out already :p what was used to fill the holes?? i wouldnt think body filler would work since it would eventually work itself out of the holes and crack the paint.

I know it's a 5yr old thread but has anyone run into problem with oil level sensor plug not reaching after doing this. Mines plug won't reach the oil level sensor. Everything else plugged in with some tension but ok. Also I did have motor/trans out to do a motor swap. Maybe routing is wrong?
