Very clean tuck gale! You've done great work with this car man! I'm very impressed; keep it up!

:tiphat: Thank you sir. Maybe I will tackle a real wire tuck this winter. Your example is inspiring.

I'm with you. I'd like to do a wire tuck, but I'm askerd of unplugging everything and hoping it works the same when I plug it back in. :ugh2:

Ditto, but I think I am going to give it a go ahead. Everyone's bays look so nice with it done

You guys can do the O&G wire tuck (the same one I did) without worry. The only thing you disconnect is the starter wire at the battery. Now, doing the Rid3_FaM0uS complete wire tuck, that is going to take some time.

For reference,

O&G wire tuck (easy) http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...wire-tuck.html

Rid3_FaM0uS complete wire tuck (intensive)http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...wire-tuck.html

Give these guys reps. They deserve it.

Thanks Gale.

I am debating the whole tuck.. I like doing things right the first time.

Rid3_FaM0uS 06-30-2014 10:11 AM

if you notice in the pictures sanity; I labeled all of my connectors as to where they went, and in correspondence to passenger or driver side of the car. Its not that I didn't know where they belonged,(you get rather familiar with things turbo'ing your car) but once you get all the looming off and you're just staring at a nest of wires, it can appear quite daunting. Doing the little things to keep from making the project demoralizing was honestly the best thing I could've done. it was a fun little project and if you're going for the show car look like I am cleaning up the engine bay with a tuck is the icing on the cake! if you need any help im usually on here multiple times daily so I'm easy to reach and while wiggins and I do his wire tuck I think ill update the thread with tools that are needed and the super secret "how to take apart the connectors" question :D

For those of us who don't like bleeding fingertips :D

Rid3_FaM0uS 06-30-2014 11:26 AM

haha well you still might get them. It requires very fine point tools, or you could just end up damaging your connector. Its not hard to figure out, per-say, there are just several variations of the connectors, and how to pull them apart; so I think it you be kind of neat to show you guys how its done. Aside from that its almost key to straightening out the mess of wires you start with. that's really the last thing I can show you guys until I get my engine back in to finish the head light and side marker looms. We can talk more about it in the thread if you guys have questions I don't want to de-rail gales journal. Thank you very much for the kind words too gale! Your willingness to put my work out there makes me feel like I did something right! haha. If you ever want to come down to Ohio, Id be more than willing to help you out, and do it on your car as I am with wiggins :)
