Hello, we are in the process of doing a full restoration on a rescued (sitting in mud since 1989) all original, 1973 Porsche 914S 2.0 - Delphi Green Metallic.

Currently we are removing the complete wiring harness and am having trouble feeding the rear harness thru the rear chassis tube and firewall.

Do I need to remove the corresponding connectors from the fuse box and then feed the harness out the back? I thought it possible to leave all fuse box connections in place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) and feed the engine harness through the firewall to the cabin.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Remove the 14-pin relay board connector housing, the fuel pump connector housing and the oil temp sender wire connector housing. Lube up the rubber snorkel tube grommet good...use KY jelly or glycerin, they clean up easily without leaving a residue.

No need to cut anything.
