did some work..

i want to finish my car asap so ill will be working on it every day when i get home from work today cleaned up engine bay took out dash and almost got the front body harness out.

now since the last owner ghetto rigged the front body harness i wanted to swap it our with my other s14 but pulling it out of my shell i ran into a snag.

the front body harness goes from the fusebox to the headlights to the drivers side fender and through the firewall that seperates to a big white screw-on plug and then to the ignition and light switch and turnsignal switch.

i didnt really try since it got dark and i just packed up for the night but can the white plug fit through the hole in the firewall? please tell me it will lol

im hoping Bigvin will help me out on this one.

also heres 2 crappy cellphone pics

Its good to see you work on your cars.

Take lots of pics, even if they are cell pix.
We are picture wh0res.

Seriously,
we love pictures.
or maybe I am just a visual learner!
good luck

Yeah, that probably wasn't the easiest way to do it, I just keep them on the motor and drop it all in
