anyone tuck their engine bay wiring yet? or shaved engine bays etc.

btw, wasn't sure to post this here or in appearance...or the tech threads etc...heh

 

I have yet to see it. Quite honestly it would be one hell of a challenge for the LE5/L61 and LNF with how the wiring harness gets to the coil packs.

 

thats what i was thinking too when i looked at it, i've never done it before but i love seeing how crazy some honda/vw guys can get. literally hide everything inside fenders or tuck it behind the engine etc. sweet looking stuff though.

 

I thought about this too, lot's of wiring to hide when you look closely. It would go a long ways to help clean up the look of our engine bays.

 

It's very difficult to do on these cars because of how adding/removing wire changes resistance. At least that's what I've always been told. Plus it's more work then most people care to do.

 

ive only seen 1 person on a lsj do a half wire tuck. i mean how do hide wires that are directly connected to the throttle body that is front and center.

 

theres a g5 with this done...

 

i'd love to see pics.


i'm gonna take a close look at the engine bay and see what could be more easily done. wouldn't be able to attempt anything til I get my 98 Passat up and running in case i **** something up =P

 

Thats so CLEAN!

 

Love wire tucked cars. Isn't it harder to do on lsj and lnf because of vac lines? Or no?

 

 

Nice!

 

How much did it cost you to tuck the wires?

 

wasn't me. its a guy from g5 club dot net

 

Wish there were close ups of that G5 so that I can get an idea

 

its idiotic to do a full wire tuck on these cars...the way the fuse box is would be insane to relocate that thing. Im in the process of doing one on my s2000 and its cake compared to what the cobalt would have been. That g5 is about as far as anyne would go...unless they had lots of time and wanted a damn nice bay

 

that g5 is nice and there is a thread on it already ive got some pics of mine and its not bad but no where near what this car is

 

Please post them. I dont think anyone here is crazy enough to attempt a full wire tuck on this platform. Still doesnt hurt to move a few things around though

 

Yeah, i think to do this right you would have to hide the fuse box and the ECU. Some covers here and there as well to hide the things you can't move or relocate.
