I didn't have the guts like LS2 bait did to cut the engine bay.

So, I just moved the fuse boxes around a little.
If you look at the last pic that xBROKEx posted the two fuse boxes are uneven.
That's because I ran out of hardware at the time. They line up perfectly now.

I still have ideas in the works on how to relocate the fuse boxes without doing any heavy cutting.
Once the weather gets warmer I'll start work again on that area.

Just finished doing mine. Piece of cake to do and looks much better. I wish I had seen this a long time ago.

Went ahead and took the stickers off of the fuse boxes and moved a couple of grounds down to the bottom of the car.

he moved the box that controlles the traction controle..

i wanna know what wires do you have to make longer if you still want it to work? and by not extending the wires is the traction controle the only thing that is affected by this? does it throw the ses light on?

If you look at the TCS module you'll see a connector on the side of it.
The connector will have a white and black wire coming out of it.
Those are the two you need to extend.

Not sure about the SES light because I extended my wires.

Check this post.
