How to keep your wires out.of site?

[DMCS14]

Im going to be doing an engine swap eventually(could be a year) and i was wondering how you can keep the wires and stuff out of sight is there any special website or diagrams on where to run them? thanks alot for any info.

which wires.

there are many harnesses that make up the vehicle wiring system.
be creative and lok for holes and hideaways.
delete any unnecessary wires for weight savings!

no mater what you do your gonna have wires that are going to be visible. best thing to do would be to route all wires through one path, shorten wires that are too long and lengthen wires that are too short..

thanks guys specifically i just mean most wire in general i just kinda want to have a clean engine bay so if anyone can help please let me know its a redtop sr

first i suggest you get a better handle on the english language. you're going to obasically have a custom harness anyways so in theory having a clean engine bay would only be like taking that concept to an extreme.

you're lookin at a TON of hassle and if i were you i'd just get some of that tubing that covers wiring up to make it all look spiffy.

English language? do you mean i need to start using punctuation, ill try this time. ill probably just try to figure out how to make it as clean as possible without doing anything too hard: AKA be lazy about it.

This is one of the major headaches I'm having with my build. It's also going to be one of the more satisfying accomplishments. :w00t: I think he's asking if there are any tricks of the trade from people who have done this before, which I believe a few options have already been discussed. Running wires together, putting them through holes, shortening and lengthening as necessary. Wiring is annoying, but can be just another part that the more detail you put into it, the better it looks overall. My parts car was a drag car in Japan, so cleanliness wasn't a necessity for wiring, once it gets smoothed out and running, it will be time to clean up and make it look "neato"

Good post, I hope more can be added later. :mepoke: <- guys who know.

a good trick to hiding wire would be to keep your hood closed. i find that keeps the entire engine bay hidden!

nuts!

shove them up your culo... that hides them well.

Relocate, just about everything electrical into your car... fuseboxs/battery/lighting, then bring the lighting or what ever back through your fender with your other harness.
