I wrapped all the wires in the best electrical tape I could find, just to clean it up a bit more. Several of the wire tabs in the engine compartment are missing, so i need to find some hardware to secure the lines in place. Suggestions are welcome.

The area where the harness comes through the firewall and turns up into the motor mount isn't as clean as I'd like it either, but its where I'm going to stop today.

Looks good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Except that I loathe electrical tape as a wire wrap since it unwraps in a year or so and leaves an awful, sticky mess.

The dash can seem daunting, but if you work at it little by little it's not too bad.

Mark - Can you recommend a top end product for a wire wrap?
