Looks nice. Why didn't you move your amp wire when you went through the trouble to hide all the other wires though?

I have wanted to do this mod so badly, but I have just been intimidated by splicing every wire, did you find it dificult at all? everytime I splice a wire it seems to come unspliced after about a month of driving.

I mounted my fuse close to the battery so I wouldn't have to do any of that to replace the fuse.

This mod does NOT require ANY cutting. The only wire that is a PITA is for the right ABS sensor. That one has to be re-routed to work, but you don't need to cut anything. That's the beauty of this mod.

You need to make sure you cut the opening in the fenderwell in the right spot...

no cutting needed, and if you want, you don't even have to cut a huge hole, i will be doing mine by taking all the connectors apart, and just using about a 1/2" hole or so.

if anybody local wants to use a metripack tool, i will let yo borrow one.

You can also run the hood release cable through the fender well on the drivers sided so you don't have any wires on that side either.

Looks good.
