Default harness relocation

im trying to velcro my harness up onto the underside of the wiper cowl off of the passenger valve cover so i can run a breather, but the ****** pulls it down. now im trying to super glue the velcro to both the harness and cowl.

anyone have any tips?

it drapes right on top of it coming off of the IM to the heater box. it used to rest on the valve cover. plus i want to clean that area up a bit so my wires arent hidden for #6 and 8

Ahh gotcha. take it out of the plastic retainer by the heater box and then push it back towards the firewall. It should catch on a lip underneath the cowl and stay out of the way. Mine has been like that since i did my headers last year and hasnt fallen down.

its on the under side of the cowl. basically just push the harness up and towards the rear of the car and it should catch on it.

ok just looked at my car to give you a clearer explaination. follow the heater hoses that go to the heater core back to the firewall. then move your hand to the right. The lip will be right there.
