Its pretty easy. If you want to hide all of the wires you'll have to take out the whole harness, cut a hole under the fusebox big enough for all the wires to fit through, then just play around with them until they all plug in. You'll more than likely have to extend the pass side head light and blinker wires a little bit. There really is no set way to hide wires, just as long as they are out of site and all hook back up in the right place.

If you're doing it this way, the pass side lights and the fan wires will all have to be longer to reach. If you keep the CCRM in its normal place, you shouldn't have to legthen the fan wires. I dont have any before pictures though. But if you look right under where the fuse box was, you'll see the hole I had to cut for the wires to go through.

if you dont have a whole heck of a lot of wires to hide, you can use that plastic wire conduit stuff...looks factory that way
I didnt cut anything, running all the wires only took about 10 minutes. Extending the pass side and the fan took a little longer, but its not difficult.

The first time I did it, I just cut that hole right under the fuse box and ran the wires through that way. A few weeks ago, I decided I wanted to smooth out my fenders so I moved my fuse box to inside the fender like you see in that picture.
I wasn't gonna post these untill I cleaned the bay...but go figure this thread popped up..lol...ohwell
Don't mind the ugly color of my bay..ha ha...the flash on the camera makes it look greenish for some reason..not like that in person.
OK Before

I'm moving the alarm horn/trunk realease cable as well, just so you can get the idea. Also removing all those lil plastic clips..lol...this pic was literally taken right after i finished..lol
And will also fill the holes and paint the bay....not anytime soon. This was very time consuming...took me many hours.

Yes, the fuse box is mounted upside down under the drivers side frame rail. All the wires going to the passenger side are run in front of the radiator. The final result:h0oligan said:
Very nice and clean. Makes the engine bay look so much more wrench friendly, especially with that battery out of there. Did you have to extend any of the wires to reach or will they all reach with the proper re-routing. And where in front of the radiator, up top or lower? Or could I just put mine underneath the stock black radiator cover.

don't forget though, he's also got a ps delete (i think?) and he got rid of the radiator overflow bottle

a PS delete means he has a power steering delete. Do a search for 95snoozer (i think) and he'll tell you how to hide the coolant overflow tank. No matter what radiator you have, you'll still need one.h0oligan said:

i think he just routed the overflow hose to the washer fluid bottle and took out the overflow bottle completely... dunno what else it required but i know he had to buy a longer tube, u'd have to see how he did the sensor
