I need to run some wires from the engine compartment to the interior, for my oil press and temp guages. I assume I can run them through the heater tube connections (I'm running headers) but would like to be sure. Is there anything inside that would stop me from sending them forward to the front tube area (under the fuse panel)..
Also, on the same note..will I need to connect them to the fuse panel? what fuses are free for such items? All advice is appreciated. Doug C |

andy's got it right. start at the main wiring harness at the firewall in the engine bay, then through the hole where the huge bundle of wires goes, around the j-boot, and through the firewall into the cabin along the existing wiring harness. you kinda have to do it in three steps: feed them through the top, then get under the car and feed them through the firewall, get in the car, take out the center console, etc and lay them alongside the harness. easy! i recently installed a pressure sender and this is how i did it. takes awhile, but it's very clean. oh, and when i was in the midst of all that, my wife asks "why didn't you just drill a new hole or something?
