everytime i look under my hood and think of something to do i always goes hmm damn all those wires..like im sure alot of people do...how hard/easy it to hide this wires in the fenders or what not...do they have to be extended? is there certains ones you can do it to or....sorry if its a dumb question i tried searching and didnt find anything so if anyone has done or is the process or doing so lemme know! thanks

[98stangv6]

what kind of wires are you talking about? pics would be nice

[94v6blkndred]

eh nothing specific just like all the stuff along side the fenders...parts of the wiring harness and such...ive heard of people tucking the fuse box in the panel but idk about all that...too much work if i blow a simple fuse haha...just getting ideas on cleaning up the motor bay. i plan on painting some stuff here sometime soon...upper / lower manifolds...valve covers...cai...anything other shit i decide to go eh what the hell haha...btw 98 your intake looked good yo

[98stangv6]

thanks man. well im not sure how simple it is to move the fuse box or wires or anything but i can try it on my car and ill tell you how it goes. im wanting to clean mine up too. I also want to relocate my radiator reservoir and my battery

[itschristorres8]

my personal opinion it isnt really worth it. some stuff the like the fuse box and EGR is ok to move out of the way. but when you start extending wires for the TPS, cam sensor, oil pressure, coolant etc then you go to start it. if you have a short to ground or something may have not been wired 100% you have an issue that will be hard to find since you've tampered with most the sensors

[itschristorres8]

also this is something i've really seen more honda guys do then domestic

[94v6blkndred]

yea see i was afraid of having to lengthen to wires to the sensors..and yea a short to ground would be super shitty...like i said i was just wondering and such....is it easy to relocate the EGR and where exactly is relocated to?

If you really want to do this sometime i could maybe help you out with extending the wires....I'm a master at electronics and soldering

[94v6blkndred]

haha word ill let you know if i ever decide to!

I am an aircraft electrician, and I love cars.

I'll give you a little insight into this...

On aircraft EVERYTHING is hidden, and it's all due to FAA and safety.

On cars, it's in the open b/c it's not cost effective and it's not easy to do with mass production. I wouldn't do it to my own car except on a full custom from a frame to the street. It is very labour intensive and would require the extension of a lot of the harness. To add into that, a lot of the electronics on the engine are on the front and top of the motor, and thus would be exposed most of the time anyway.

It's all a matter of choice, but I would avoid it.

There are a couple of options that you could try to use to "spiff" up your engine bay however. Split loom comes to mind instantly (it looks like a corrugated plastic tube that comes in many colours and installs via a slit that the wiring tucks into). Another way is to buy coloured electrical tape and re-wraping your harness.

Either option (hiding the wiring, or wrap, would be time consuming, it's just a matter of personal opinion.

G/L and keep us updated and provide pics!

what is the benefit of doing that???

[whitemustang02]

blknred i hide the wires on the passenger side with no extending of them and it toke me about an hour. i was going to try and really clean up the engine bay this summer but just never got the time. hell i have had my AC delete pulley sitting in my room since mid june. but i would be more then willing to help you out when i get the time to explane how i hid the wires.

[94v6blkndred]

word thanks bro id appreciate it...why havent you installed the delete yet?

here is how it looks after i hid the wires.

and i haven't installed it yet because i just haven't had the time. i was working 12 sifts in a fireman rotation until 2 days ago and now i have to get ready to move in to my dorm for school in 7 days.
i am going to try and see if i can get it in this week but i have a ton of other things that take priority.

[94v6blkndred]

yea see thats what i wanna do..makes it look cleaner
