Installed Wiring Harness Today Options

[mikey]

I thought I'd post this to save some other poor soul the same grief that I just went through. I installed a brand new wiring harness (well the back half anyway) into my 914-6 today. It's not easy but one person can do it.

I found out the hard way that everything, including connectors, has to fit through a quarter size hole just after exiting the firewall. The connector for the relay board had to go through this hole first because it won't fit with anything else in this hole - I mean even a single wire already in this hole would make the fit too tight for the relay board connector to pass through. Then I started feeding other wires through. I ran into a round connector that I thought wasn't going to make it through undamaged but with a little persuasion it finally worked.

Oh, and another thing...the back end of the harness has to be inserted at the very front of the tunnel. It lays on top of the tunnel until it reaches midway where it passes into the tunnel, out and back in again before going through the firewall.

Hope this helps somebody. (Shoulda taken some pictures) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
