It's a lengthy process, but you'll need to strip down the interior to barely nothing. One at a time, begin to eliminate the items that you no longer need. Trace the wiring back for those items and remove it.

Spaghetti Menders does custom race car wiring. You tell him what you need to power and he sends you everything including the wire and a wiring diagram.

Well I've seen some butchered jobs online, so that's why I took plenty of time to do it right. It can be done cleanly the way I described. You just can't be in a hurry.

Having one custom done would be awesome, but people like myself who are on a budget have to get creative.
